Question

Would a skateboard 8 inches in width be good for me because i like to ollie gaps?

Answer 1

the only reason ud want a 8.0 is if ur balance just completely sucks and u dont know how to do any flip tricks.

a wider deck like a 8 will be very difficult to flip, then again if all u do is ollie it wont matter to much. but a 8.0 is gonna weigh just a bit more than a 7.6 or something which will also be easy to flip

but really you should just get the size that is the most comfortable even if its the 8.0
