I know skateboard wheels come in different sizes but is there really a difference between the cheaper brands and the more expensive ones?
diferrent plastics and uses,back in my day I used simms street wheels,they didnt catch on pebbles when riding curbs and sidewalks where as alot of ramp wheels did,probably the same today different wheels for different uses,the more expensive ones usualy had better bearings,like swiss.
I got a new deck and am clueless as to what parts I need. I know need grip tape, trucks and wheels, but what else? How much will all of it cost? (I already have safety gear like a helmet, knee pads etc.)
the only other thing ya need would be bearings 4 your wheels. skate shoes aren't necessary at first but will help a lot once you get into doing tricks. For pretty good quality wheels, trucks, griptape, and bearings it'll cost you about 50-75 bucks total but u could get cheaper stuff for 25-30 bucks total. Getting good quality stuff will be good long term but cheaper stuff is fine if you are just starting and don't want to spend to much

Columbia, KC, Warrensburg and Springfield would be your next closest skate shops.

Let's see … how about "Bruises and Abrasions" or maybe "Lumps and Bumps" … maybe "Big Air Fractures"…or … "Wow Wow OW".
you can order a blank board at www.ccs.com blanks are just as good as pro model boards and are cheaper. ebay is good to if you need a pro model deck.
a plan b ryan sheckler metallic skateboard. a complete one. are there any websites where i can find this pre assembled? (P.S. if i cant find a preassembled one, is it hard for one to assemble it on their own?)
Almost every single skateshop online or local will assemble a board for free, you could go to any site and build a board using that deck and it'll ask you at the end if you want them to assemble it or not. Local shops will gladly do it for free you're buying it and paying all that money it's the least they can do.
I really want to skate,I wanna get serious..Skate equipment are expensive.
Is this your own money you would be spending? If so I would personally encourage my son to participate, as long as he continued in school and kept the high honor grades he's been getting. Get odd jobs and pay for your own gear. Practice practice practice….and if you are good enough eventually you will get sponsors who will pay for your equipment and competitions. Not to mention that winning competitions can win you money as well and help fund your skateboarding.
I need a picture and a brief description of a chute and a catcher.
It is for a school project and i cannot find ANYTHING about it. I would really appreciate any help i can get!!

I would really like to get into that kind of photography. Can you guys help with with the kind of lens? and maybe some other info?
Every sport, including skateboarding uses different lenses for different effects. Do you have a sample image? If it looks really different from normal pictures, my guess is it’s a wideangle or fisheye lens.
