I was wondering what blank deck and grip tape I should get If I am a beginner 5'6'', 123 pounds and size 9 1/2 shoes. I'm confused about what concave is and what would a good board for a beginner with my body would be.

Dont get anything from walmart or any store like that. Those boards are very unsafe. My suggestion would be a 7.75 in. deck.

What would "Any store like that mean."? I don't think walmart sells decks and I might go to sports authority and see if they have decks or I could just get one off blank decks .com.

Use that website you posted right there. Or go to a skate shop.
