In terms of the quality of skateboards and the people they are aimed at, they can be categorized into toy boards and pro boards. It does not mean that you need a professional board only if you become a professional skater. If you're going to skateboard, don't hesitate to go for a 300+ pro board. Toy boards are really just toys for kids to play with, usually under 300 bucks.

From the function of skateboards, they can be divided into two main categories: road boards (in the broad sense) and dual-wheeled boards.

The double-warp board, which should be more common and popular now, is characterized by a wooden board with two warped ends. Also called street skateboarding, mainly used to play a variety of actions and props, the most basic but in fact not simple action is ollie, that is, with the board jump, which is why some people say that playing skateboarding feet stained with glue.

Road boards, also divided into: longboard (narrow road board), big fish board, small fish board, banana board, and so on. Longboards are mainly used to play downhill, almost do not do the action of the street skateboarding, and its price is also on the high side. Some people also like to use longboard to brush the street. Of course, professional street brush with, is the big fish board small fish board banana board, these kinds of essential difference, is the difference between the shape and size of the board. The difference between them and the longboard, in addition to the functionality, there is, there is a plastic surface and a single warped surface exists. The wheels are the same as those used for longboards, and the wheels on road boards are generally larger and softer compared to the double cocked ones to accommodate more complex road conditions.

These are the main classifications of skateboards today. If you want to go back even further, there were single-warp street skateboards and whatnot, but they're almost non-existent nowadays.
