Answer 3

don't spend loads of money on a skateboard 30 pounds is fine for you first one.don't buy a brand name you might not use it, it's boring learning to ollie.if you get past that you will be able to learn all sorts of tricks with time.  

Answer 4

It doesn't seem like many people are from England here, or know the exchange rate!

I'm from Bournemouth and know just how hard it is to sort a decent setup when the money is tight.

It's always temping to just spend £20 on a Renner or United skates board, but from personal experience I can tell you that you wont get very far with one of these.

If you can spare an extra tenner, you can get an Enuff complete for £60, and they are by no means budget. I hear that the current models are made in the same woodshop as Stereo decks. The rest of the hardware on it is pretty decent quality too.

Apart from that, second hand setups appear now and again on Ebay, I saw a good enjoi/royal/spitfire setup for for about £55, but then you take a gamble on the quality.

As for size, I'm a size 11 foot and I skate a 7.6, anywhere around that should be fine.

Good luck with it!

Answer 5

you need an american board. get an element board with some spitfire wheels, tensor trunks and independent bearings
