Skateboarding is currently one of the most popular extreme sports on the market. First developed in America in the 1950's by bored surfers looking for a thrill when there weren't any waves, Skateboarding quickly grew into a worldwide extreme sport. Part of the charm of skateboarding is the ability to create your own individual board, with thousands of new parts and designs released every year.ﾠWith such a wealth of products to choose from, it can be really daunting whether picking your first board or breathing new life into your current set-up with a new part. In this section, we'll be offering some of our top tips when purchasing:

Things to consider when buying a Skateboard:

As there is such a wide range of Skateboards available, there's some importantﾠthings to keep in mind when choosing yours:

• Moneyﾠ- You don't want to spend more than is necessary, however the qualityﾠof a product can be discerned by the cost. The higher the cost, the better qualityﾠyou are likely to get.

• Skill Levelﾠ- Practically all models are suitable for beginners, but for more experienced riders, you would get theﾠmost out of purchasingﾠhigher-end parts. More expensive parts tend to be made from stronger, lighter materials.

• Ageﾠ- If the skates are for a child it may be worth taking a look atﾠsome of the smaller boards we have to offer. Make sure you purchase a board with a smaller deck as smaller kids will struggle with a larger, wider skateboard.

• Complete or Custom - It's possible to purchase a complete skateboard or the parts separately. It's generally cheaper to purchase a complete board however custom set-ups are the perfect option for more experienced riders or beginners who want a really unique board.
