I’m buying a board for the first time (haven’t been skating very long at all, all I can do is literally skate without falling off but that’s because I’ve been using friends’ boards).
I’m buying a board over the internet since there are NO skate shops or anything near me and my mum won’t let me use ebay so I’m buying on amazon. Also the board has to be pretty cheap and I don’t really care about makes or brands or anything.
Basically I’m torn between two boards because I don’t know what size board I need to get (7 inches or 8 inches??):
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Osprey-Pro-Skateboard-Metal-Gear/dp/B001FA355Q/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&s=kitchen&qid=1245568899&sr=1-18
and

If any of this information helps; I’m a girl, I’m 5"3.5 and my shoe size is 6 (UK size).
Ok DO NOT buy either of these boards they are cheap rubbish and will not help you at all!!! There really is no point buying a board like this as the trucks are rubbish the wheels and bearings will not let you get any sort of roll and the deck will not give you any pop. These boards really are just for young kids. Yur best bet is always a skate shop if you can travel (maybe ask your parents to drive you to one?). If this really is not an option go to a spacific skate website (check out skate mags like Sidewalk and Kingpin for the best ones with the best deals) as they will have all the propper gear, you can buy a complete set up reasonably cheap. You will get so much more enjoyment from a decent set up. As for size maybe start with an 8 inch board as the deck has a wider surface it will be eisier for you to get used to and learn on after that its personal chioce. I use an 8 inch deck but some of my friends ride 7 3/4 OR 7 1/2 inch decks. I hope this helps.

Hi, are any decent, cheap manufacturers of freestyle snowboards; similar to blank skateboard decks?
Posted by: admin // Category: Skateboard GearI want to get into freestyle snowboarding at my local snow dome but I can’t use the rental gear for that apparently. So now I’m looking to get a snowboard and was wondering if there are any cheaper makes which are still decently constructed and won’t break the bank. Many thanks for all answers.
no

Were Can I Get super super cheap skinny jeans for men and super cheap skateboard decks?
Posted by: admin // Category: Skateboard GearI need to know were i can get amazinigly cheap skiny jeans, decks and skate gear
well it kind of sounds like your a poser a true skater wouldn’t buy a cheap deck I would know I had a skater bf but you can find cheap stuff at zumiez
im just a newbie on skate boarding. i know i should buy gear too.
Find a good local skate shop and ask for a good beginners complete.
The guys in my local skate shop are honest and good at picking boards for beginner riders.
A good complete will be a lot cheaper than picking out individual parts (trucks, wheels, bearings etc) and putting them all together.
Once you get a bit more experience you’ll start to need better equipment, but you don’t need some "super-awesome" $300 skateboard just to get started.
You may want to get some elbow pads and a helmet too until you’re more comfortable on a skateboard. (I still hit my elbows more than anything else)
The main thing is to use it after you buy it!
Rate and Comment… eh… it was all improved basically… learned by ear so i suppose it wasnt bad..
well, enjoy
