Equipment

 

Equipment is very important.There are five crucial parts in building a complete skateboard.First you need a deck there are so many brands but some are better than others get a deck you like.The second thing is trucks.Again lots of brands so many choises.I personally like Venture trucks the best but don't take my word for it finde trucks you like.Now you need wheels the kinde of wheels depends on where you are going to be skateing.Harder wheels are for outdoor skating and softer wheels are for indoor skating.Before you put the new wheels on get good bearings.Bearings are the piece inside the wheel that helps the wheel spin longer.Dont use stock bearings even thou they cost less they last about only a month.Buy the upgrade bearings they should cost about five dollars more but you save money buying them now for five dollars then later for thirty five.,Last you need grip tape it feels like sandpaper but it helps your shoes stay on the board so you don't fall when trying to do tricks.
