Is this skateboard deck right for me?
I bought a skateboard off my mate for $20. Its a Willy Santos Birdhouse deck with a bear pimp on it. It is just under 8 inches wide and is about 30-31 inches long. I am 5 foot 7 inches and weigh 60 kgs. I also have a size 9 foot if that's relevant. I will probably be mostly skating street but will probably visit the skate park every couple of weeks. So i was wondering if this deck is right for me? If not, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
Skateboard size is mostly personal preference, meaning it's up to you and your comfort with the deck size. 8" wide decks are okay for street and probably good enough for you to learn on heck for $20 who can argue right. It'll work out for now but you may want to try something a little narrower when you get a new deck. I like the 7.625 decks i'm 6'3 180 pound with a size 11 shoe, just pointing out that shoe size, weight and all that really doesn't effect what size deck you need (unless you're overweight or just really small, their the only exceptions) it's all about whats comfortable for you. I started on old school decks that were 10 inches wide and did just fine on them.
