It doesn't matter. I usually skate 7.75 though.

i skate 7.75 because i feel more comfortable riding it...since it's alittle wider, i can balance alittle more when i go off of stairs.

well another question to that is does your shoe size matter for board size?

well i have a mystery 7.75 and size ten shoes, and i think when i buy a new deck next ill probly get the same deck in an 8. about the street/vert size i slide on my friends atm 8.5 adn i think its easier than mine, so maybe sliding is easier on big decks, though ollies and flips seem easier on a smaller deck, but whatever.

its mostly about wut u like

a smaller board will naturally flip faster

a bigger board will naturally give you a bigger surface to slide and land on

some people (like me) are mad picky bout size, others can perform well on anythin, they dont notice really the difference
