The deck is the most important component of a skateboard. The choice of deck has a significant impact on your skateboarding performance. So, which deck is the best? It depends on your needs. Do you need one with high ollies? Or one that excels at slides? Or one that is the most durable? Let’s take a look at the criteria for several different skateboard decks.
Skateboard structure
Shape of the skateboard. This is the most commonly used standard for selecting skateboards. Many factors need to be considered when choosing the shape: length, width,
Board HeadLength, Banae length, bridge distance. The width of most skates ranges from 7.5 inches to 8 inches. Some are even narrower or wider, but the difference for most is no more than half an inch. It’s helpful to be familiar with the “inch” unit, as the skate surfaces available on the market and online are measured in inches. It would be cumbersome to convert everything to centimeters.
In terms of durability, no single board has an absolute advantage. Most panels are 7-layer boards, glued together using 7 thin layers. Some companies claim their boards are lightweight, which is usually achieved by using thinner wood sheets, fewer layers, or cross-laying the thin sheets. These methods make the board slightly lighter, but they also make it slightly more fragile. Some companies even add more layers or increase the thickness of the wood to enhance the board’s durability.
Some companies adopt different methods or innovations in the structure of boards. For example, Flip’s “New Wave Construction” patented technology adds a ribbed hard strip on the surface of the board to enhance its performance. Real uses “Triple Beam Construction,” employing 7 layers of plywood, with 3 of them cross-laminated. This significantly increases the board’s elasticity and durability.
If your skateboard is very hard, this will allow it to achieve its maximum performance. If it is softer (due to water absorption or excessive twisting), then its performance will be poor. But if it is too hard, it will become prone to breaking. So there is a middle ground, right? Skateboard companies make innovations every day in order to improve the manufacturing technology of skateboard surfaces.
Dana. However, we still haven’t found a better way.
