[quote=Anonymous]My kid skateboards. When he started out he asked for a board for Christmas. I didn't understand that there are different types of skate styles that each have their own types of board. I spent a lot of money on a longboard only to find out later that he wanted the kind you do tricks on. Longboards are mainly for commuting/traveling distances. If the kid wants to do "ollies" and jump down staircases then s/he needs the other kind. We bought our first "real" board at Zumiez. I suggest that you go there and explain what you want to be able to do with the board. They have all the types. For a trick board expect to spend about $125-$150 for the complete board (wheels, trucks, bearings and the deck with grip tape. You may be better off giving the child a gift certificate and then letting him/her select each of the components. [/quote]
