The wider the deck = the more fun you'll have

im thinking bout getting a real or a baker.
i have been skating enjois but there concave is so small.

[powerhouse23]

you cant go wrong with a real ^

[K 3 R R Y]

I've never tried a real before, but I would go with the baker, or a deathwish if theres any.

why explain why there so great everyone says there so good.

[powerhouse23]

great shape, extremely sturdy, nice pop, doesn't get soggy, skates sick.

basically anything from DLX is like that (real,krooked,anti hero)

I would say skate a 7.75 or a 7.8, but then again, it all comes down to personal preference. If you are considering a baker, you should consider getting a deathwish, they don't chip as fast as bakers do and they have good concave and a sick shape. Definately get one if your shop has any. I haven't skated a DLX before, but I have heard they're sick decks.

Get an 8. And your feet wont be too small, i have a friend that skates 8.25 and 8.5 and he has size 8.5 feet. Tre flips 10 sets like nothing.

Between 7.75-8.0 is good. Maybe you could get 7.8.
I wear 9.5 and ride between 7.75-8.0. Right now I'm on 7.87 habitat and it feels good.

imho, if you like medium concave shape, it feels better to have a wider deck. On a flat shape, deck size isn't as important.

i would try a 7.75 first and see how u like it. jumping straight from a 7.5 to an 8 might feel really weird and take longer to get used to.

[sk8erdude555]

i say either go for a 7.75 if you are really have trouble finding 7.5s and just wanna try something new or stick with the 7.5 since youve been riding them for four years

[TXJDOT]

8.5

You must be joking you have to have ridiculously huge feet to skate 8.5 I won't go over 8.1 if I'm skating street

[gsosa]

Shoe size doesnt really matter, its how the board feels. Id say go for a 7.75 or 7.81 since youve been sakting smaller decks. You can go up to the 8 if you want.

[Meako]

Anyone think 7.81 would be to big. my shoe size is 7.5 - 8

[gnappletree]

7.81 is prob a good size. then when ur comfortable try moving to a 8
