deck sizes

[d.o.a]

what do you guys think the best deck size would be 7.5, 7.75 or bigger

[RageAgainstTheToyMachine]

Depends on your style of skating. If you are tech than obviously you want lighter and skinnier deck. If you are skating vert than anything other than a wider deck is suicide. If you are skating stairs/ledges/rails you'll want something inbetween.

all i skate is street and some stairs and ledges. i always used 7.75 but 7.625 feels better to me.

[d.o.a]

thanks i'll probably get a 7.75 because i skate street. and does the size affect your ollie.

[GetWrecked77]

i've used different sized decks, but it never affects my tricks. it's just feels better to me with decks that size.

smaller decks spin faster... i had a really skinny element deck and i could spin a flip easy now i have a 7.75 and its a lot harder... maybe i just gotta get used to it but it spins alot slower which is good for my kickflips cos i always used to spin to much

[Joel-k]

7.5 everytime

personal preference

[canadian_sk8er]

Its just what you like I skate 8 and am getting an 8.25 in the mail soon

[RejectedSpiritX]

I usually skate 7.75 or 8. I have a lot better control of it and my Frontside and Backside Crooked Grinds are a lot easier to me.

[danny29]

7.5 is my preferabed choice it easier to psin and control ppl say the extra bit is easier to land but ther only bout 25mm moire wood land on yeah thats a big different isn't it

[Darkstar_Sk83R_Emerica]

well... my deck is 7.5 and it skates good but thats just me..

[subillaz]

m getting a 7.5 cus it helps me with my tricks and 7.75 is for gaps and shit but its personal preferance
