At first, when I started skateboarding, the biggest question in front of me was, which board should I choose?
So today I'm going to talk to you about this topic
In general, most of the mainstream skateboards are small fish boards, longboards, and double jibs.
The standard length of the small fish board is 64cm*16.5cm, which is equivalent to a mini skateboard, with good stability, suitable for brushing the street, and due to its small and light nature, compared to other skateboards, the small fish board is the most convenient to carry, so if you want to use the skateboard as a transportation tool, it is definitely the best choice for you.
But because of its small size, many skateboarding maneuvers can't be accomplished with the Fishboard, but some very simple maneuvers, such as swinging, grabbing, and other basic maneuvers can be done without a problem. In addition, the length of the board is short, so guys and girls with long feet will always feel like they have no place to put their feet when they play.
Longboards, as the name suggests, are longer and wider than other types of skateboards, with a length of 33-59 inches (84-150cm) and a width of 9.0-10.0 inches (22.8-25.4cm). In terms of stability, the longboard is undoubtedly the most advantageous, it is no exaggeration to say that the rookie who has never been exposed to skateboarding may not dare to go on the small fish board or double warp, but the longboard is no problem, so I believe that we will have a concept of its stability.
Besides, the shape of the longboard, the slender line design does let the skateboarding fans look at the value of the skateboarding fans like, in terms of action, the longboard can not be used to do Ollie, jumping and other skateboarding action, but can be used for dancing, drifting performance, before a Korean girl dancing on the longboard video is also fire, so the longboard is still suitable for the pursuit of the beauty of the girls.
The longboard's dominant appearance also determines its excessive weight. Indeed, in the skateboarding world, the longboard is the heaviest, so there is no advantage in carrying it, and its price is generally higher than that of a small fish and a double cock.
The double-warp is the most familiar board in the world, with a length of 80cm and smaller wheels than the small fish and the longboard, so the stability of the board is relatively low, and it's a little more demanding on the road surface than the asphalt road.
but, double cocking is definitely a god weapon to tease girls, all kinds of action arbitrary play, handsome degree is definitely higher than the three-point shooting, of course, the premise is that these actions you have to do to come. It's not exaggerating to say that many classic skateboarding moves need to be double-crossed to be completed. With double-crossing, all kinds of fancy moves are practiced, as long as you are not afraid to fall.
I believe that many children who have never touched a skateboard but want to learn will have a stage of choosing a board. Personally, I think that the first thing you should do is to find out what you want to learn to skateboard, if you just want to use it to brush up the street, then the fish board is the most suitable for it, and if you love to be adventurous and want to play handsome, then it is still a double cocking bar. All in all, according to their own needs, combined with the characteristics of the various boards to choose the most suitable for their own!
Another question that may come up is, do I need to buy protective gear?
The answer is: If you just skate or practice some basic moves, you don't need protective gear, but if you need to practice some difficult moves, it's better to bring protective gear, after all, safety first!
Beginners may also be concerned about a question, skateboarding is difficult to learn? Personally, I think it's so easy to just skate, but it's still difficult to learn those fancy moves, but as long as you have a heart that's not afraid to fall, day after day, it's going to be so easy
Lastly, I hope this article will be a little bit helpful for skateboarding whites!
