Many parents are unsure of what to look for when purchasing their child's first skateboard. Let's have a look at our possibilities and see if we can assist you in making the best decision for your skateboards for kids.

Sizes of Skateboards for Children

The majority of high-quality Skateboards Decks are available in teen and adult sizes. A somewhat smaller board, on the other hand, will allow a younger skater to properly handle and navigate their board. Because of the narrower width, smaller feet might benefit from the deck's contoured design. For everything from kick turns to ollies to more complex tricks, a shorter length enables optimal foot positioning and the possibility for the front foot to correctly contact with the kick of the board.

Kids' Skateboard Quality

While there are plenty of lousy skateboards on the market, we'd want to see novice skaters have a safer and more progressive learning experience skateboarding on a skate shop grade board in the appropriate size.

A contemporary contoured maple or bamboo deck that provides the appropriate balance of strength and flexibility for tricks.

For novices, performance bearings and high-quality wheels with softer wheel alternatives are recommended. Trucks that are lighter and have softer bushings for easier turning.

Beginner Skateboards - This is by far our most popular skateboard series. All Skateboard branded components are used in the starter, allowing us to make an excellent board at an affordable price.

Advanced Skateboards - Designed for skaters who will spend more time at the skatepark than on the streets and who want to skate the same name brand components as adolescents and adults use, such as Thunder Trucks and Bones Wheels. (If you're seeking an extra boost in mobility, check out our Bones Bushings Upgrade.)

Pro Skateboards - The pro skateboard has Spitfire Wheels, Bones Bushings, Bones Bearings, and Thunder Trucks and is contest ready. This board is suitable for skaters of all levels, although it performs best at a skatepark.

Summary

If you've chosen to encourage your kids to try skating, consider getting them a high-quality, properly sized skateboard with a design and style that will appeal to them. This increases their chances of success.
