Many complete skateboards offered online tick a few of the boxes but some only consist of a quality deck with lower quality parts.

A complete skateboard is fine when you want to learn skateboarding, but only if you pick the right one. You can go for either Spitfire or Bones wheels between 52mm and 54mm, Thunder or Indy trucks that match an 8. I’ve listed the best 5 skateboards we tested for over a year and also included a guide on how to assemble your own skateboard. A decent skateboard consists of a stiff 7-ply hard rock maple deck, bearings that spin well, wheels that don’t wear fast, and skate trucks that can handle abuse. Our skateparks can be found in municipalities, military bases, private organizations, and backyards throughout the country and around the world.Often the trucks are from unknown brands and don’t last very long, once you start to do some more advanced tricks. The ramp set is easy to set up, with tool-free assembly and your very own skate park that's ready to go in just 2 minutes. Lastly, I added a cruiser (Arbor Pilsner) if you want to quickly go from A to B and don’t care much about tricks. Over the years I have tested about 40 skateboards from different skateboard brands and close to 20 cruiser skateboards. Find mini and full-sized ramps and a superb range of grind rails that are perfect for starting your little ones off on their extreme sports journey.

However, it's important to remember that safety comes first, so make sure you kit up with a helmet and pads when using the RAMPAGE Launch Ramp. It gets a bit more tricky here because you have to pick the right hardness (durometer) but this isn’t really complex.With a deck constructed from 7-Ply Chinese Maple, Heavy-Duty Sea Eagle trucks and carbon steel bearings, this board is perfect for beginners who are finding their footing and furthering their abilities. Thanks to its tool-free assembly, you can set up your very own skate park in no time, making it a fuss-free way to get started.
