SMALL SKATEBOARD

A small skateboard is a skateboard that is small enough to be used by a younger skater. Adult sized boards are often too heavy and cumbersome to be used by younger skaters, which is why small skateboards are so popular among younger kids and even some high-schoolers. If you feel like an adult sized skateboard is just too large for you to use safely and comfortably, then you should definitely try out a small skateboard and see how it feels. These boards are shorter, lighter, and just as tough as adult sized boards. In fact, there are a lot of professional-level junior skaters using small skateboards for competition!

When it comes time to buy a small skateboard, there are a few things that you need to take into consideration. First of all, what kind of design do you want on the skateboard? Most skateboards sport some sort of design on the bottom, and this plays a big part in how the skateboard looks. There are all kinds of different designs available. A lot of them are very punk and grunge in nature, sporting skull graphics, stripes, splatters, and various other types of symbols and designs. Choosing the right small skateboard design is really a matter of choice. There are so many to choose from that you should have no trouble finding something that you really like.

 

The next thing you need to think about is what brand you want. There are a lot of brands out there, though not all of them are the same. One fact that you can take solace in is the fact that even the cheapest, most generic small skateboards (providing they are actually real skateboards) will help you ride now and then. But what you also need to know is that, if you expect to tear up the half-pipe several times a week for hours on end with your friends, you are going to need a name-brand board that can get the job done without snapping in half! Stunts like grinding, jumping, and riding a manual also take their toll on a board. If you want to perform tricks on your small skateboard, it is important to buy one that can stand up to the abuse. A good name brand board will not cost you too much, and it can actually save you money in the long run by helping you avoid breaks and accidents that could cost you for a new board. A good brand is really worth the money, especially if it will be seeing a lot of use.

In the end though, it all comes down to what board you want. A small skateboard can be a lot of fun, but it will not do anyone any good if you do not like it and feel comfortable on it. If you feel comfortable on your board, you will not only ride safer, but learn faster as well. So buy the small skateboard that you feel good about, and you shouldn't have any problems.
