![]() The deck is the wood part of the skateboard (if you didn’t already know that). Different types size decks can be used for different things. This article will help find the right deck for you. Transition and Vert decks Street Decks Vert and Street decks are the two main kind of decks, but you can use any size board you want to to go skate a pool, ollie down some stairs, or to drop in on Bob Burnquist’s mega ramp (I have never skated down a mega ramp or plan to, but using my experience with bombing hills I would think you would want a wider deck with decent sized wheels). There are other types of decks like helium, bamboo, carbon fiber, and so on. These decks usually cost a little bit more than the good ol’ Canadian maple decks that most pro decks are made from, but those boards do have their advantages (with helium boards you can ollie a little higher, carbon fiber decks are strong and have more pop as well, and the list goes on). |
