From the style of your riding, it will be completely dependent on what kind of skateboard is worth choosing. For example, small wheels are chosen for riding in the ramp, for speed on the streets - more. If you have not yet decided on the style and priorities of the ride, then this article will help you figure out and estimate what exactly choose among many skateboards.
How to choose a skateboard - deck
Skateboard consists of several main parts - this is a deck, suspension, wheels, bearings. The remaining details are not so important if you are a beginner skateboarder.
Deca is a wooden board on which a person stands. Usually it is attached to the sandpaper from above, for better clutch. About the coating will be speaking a little later at this point.
This element is characterized by the size, the depth of the conkayiv and the amount of wood layers. At the last point, choosing the deck is very difficult, since all modern firms are made by default from six to eight layers. With dimensions, everything is much more complicated. Initially, it is better to reflect on the principle: the more leg, the wider and longer deck. " But in fact, you will know the size suitable for you only after self-studying and peeping skate at least a day. Narrow decks are much easier to flip, that is, to twist them in the air. Wide much confident is held in the frame and street riding style.
The conqueing is a slight recess at the edges of the deck. What he deeper, the easier you can make a click and break away from the ground. But with some tricks, a deep conqueper will only be a problem. Stop to start on average size.
In addition, it can be said that the quality of the deck is determined by external signs: if you put a skateboard smoothly, but one edge edge is slightly higher or lower than the other - it means the tree dry. Or if the tree has cracks and even chips, such a skate will last long.
The sandpaper is not much different. The color does not affect the technical characteristics, and the different rigidity will be difficult to find, so stop your choice on any coating, even on what was already on the deck.
How to choose a skateboard - wheels
The wheels have two basic characteristics: size and rigidity. The hard and less wheels, the faster they gain speed and lose it. Soft wheels better absorb the surface of the asphalt, but they do not allow to accelerate in full. 99-101A is the optimal rigidity for the beginner, and select 52-53 mm.
Pay attention to what the wheel core is made. The plastic core will reduce the weight of the Skate, but his durability is doubtful. Give preference to polyurethane if you want the durability of the wheels.
How to choose a skateboard - suspension
Tracks, they are suspension, are located under the deck and the wheels are attached to them. The suspension is designed to turn a skateboard. Tighten or relax the tracks you can spanner, then the skateboard will be smaller or turning faster. In the middle of the Track there is a central bolt - it is to twist it and necessary. Usually choose aluminum alloy pendants.
How to choose a skateboard - bearings
Also an important part of the skate - each type of bearing has its own number. From the ABEC-1 number to ABEC-7. The greater the number, the faster your wheels will spin. It is advisable to take ABEC-3 or ABEC-5, since the seventh room is very fast and not suitable for our roads. Also, they are just for a specific riding style.
These are the most basic things you need to know before buying a skateboard. At the moment, there are very few large skateboard shops on the CIS market with a great choice. You can try to order accessories abroad.
There are already collected skateboards that you buy ready and not requiring assembly. You buy on your own assembly and risk, since not all of it can come to you.
