Skateboard Equipment to Save the Knees |
| 10/27/2009 12:30:59 AM |
 One piece of skateboard equipment I wish I would have used more as a teen were knee pads. Being a taller guy, the knees are the first thing to go. Luckily I have been pretty fortunate to not have any real problems with them but there are those days especially when it is cold outside, just underneath my knee caps it gets sore.. I don’t think it is completely because of the... Read More |

It’s easy to follow the rules with your skateboard equipment |
| 10/26/2009 1:32:22 AM |
 Back when I first started using my skateboard equipment all of the time and riding around all over town, and having a blast, we didn’t know that many places didn’t approve of your using your skateboard equipment on their property. There are even some places that will posts signs that warn you not to use your skateboard equipment on their premises. After realizing that by... Read More

Why Can’t I Do that on a Skateboard Deck? |
| 10/23/2009 12:55:28 PM |
 Skateboarding has been a part of my life ever since 8th grade. From then until 11th grade I was a skater in every sense of the word. My hair was long, I spent my days outside of school skating local hotspots around our little city and the weekends hoping on the bus with a few friends to head down to a big skate park a couple cities over. In school, my mind wandered out the... Read More |

My Son’s Skateboard Equipment |

 Skateboard Equipment
My son started getting into skateboarding when he was very young and has kept it up ever since then. When he’s not working or at school, you can be certain to find him at the skate park. The first time I went to his new apartment I was shocked at the amount of skateboard equipment he had acquired over the years. His father and I bought him his first... Read More |

Nothing Better then Grinding on Skateboard Equipment |
| 9/29/2009 1:25:35 PM |
 One of the best presents my brother and I ever got growing up was a customizable piece of skateboard equipment that had us spending hours after school and over the weekends boardsliding and 50/50 grinding. When we saw that 10 foot long, adjustable height grind rail online, it was an instant addition to our Christmas list. With old school videos like the one of pro street... Read More |

Winning the complete skateboard |
| 9/26/2009 8:51:39 AM |
The other day when I was going to work-out at my local community center, there was a skateboarding demo and contest going on. The skate park is right next to the center. I stood there and watched for awhile. The guys and some girls were watching the pros and all their moves. The sponsors were giving away skateboard equipment and complete skateboards away as prizes. When it... Read More |

Saving Myself From Road Rash With Protective Skateboard Equipment |
| 9/24/2009 8:37:57 PM |
 There is one thing that I have learned about riding a skateboard deck for more than ten years – with a nice hiatus in between high school and today – and that is to always wear the proper protective skateboard equipment. The lesson was served well to me last weekend when I was riding my skateboard deck around with my best friends and I fell while trying to perform a trick.... Read More

Down Hill Racing with Skateboard Equipment |
| 9/10/2009 7:01:13 PM |
 Every young kid who loves to get around on a skateboard deck at one point or another sits down on the deck, legs facing forward, hands gripping either side of the board and luges down a hill. Street luging is just down right fun. It is way less scary to sit on your butt and fly down a hill on a skateboard deck then to do it standing where speed wobbles can quickly turn a... Read More |

My son is always buying skateboard equipment. |
| 8/15/2009 7:30:35 PM |
 My teenage son has several skateboards and has been skating for a few years now. He is always buying skateboard equipment for his many skateboards. He buys safety skateboard equipment like pads and helmets. He also gets bearings and wheels and other parts for his skateboards. He knows exactly how to take apart his boards and put them back together right. If one part... Read More

Skateboard Equipment: Choosing the Right Wheels |
| 7/9/2009 8:08:59 PM |
 I have been on the hunt for skateboard equipment for a new deck. Trolling the many ecommerce stores for a deal, I ran across an article, which helped buyers choose what type of wheels to buy. My current set of wheels have been worn down about as flat as it gets. It’s like riding on four quarters. The average size I have been seeing at skateboard equipment sites is 52 mm,... Read More |

Skateboard Equipment Keeps My Grandson Safe |
| 6/27/2009 10:16:17 PM |
 My husband and I have bought skateboard equipment and clothing online on a few different occasions. The reason we bought skateboard equipment is that we have a grandson called Rick. Young Rick is nine years old and he has a skateboard. He likes to play outside on his skateboard and he competes against one of the neighbors, a child called Kenny. We have bought skateboard...

Skateboard Deck Contest Mishaps |
| 6/18/2009 7:17:13 AM |
 Skateboard Deck
I haven't thought about skateboarding in a few years. I use to enjoy the times at the local skate park ripping up the ramps and showing off a little, but the bruises, bumps, and injuries started to catch up with me. Even with good skateboard equipment, I'm just not as young as I use to be! Anyway, I was talking with a new skateboarder about some skateboard... Read More |

Skateboard Equipment Important After Reading the News |
| 5/30/2009 3:17:45 PM |
 I just ran a search with Google News using the term “skateboard,” to my surprise there were no news stories about complete skateboard events, new skateboards decks or pros instead it was all about skaters who have been hospitalized around the world. From Virginia Tech to Salt Lake City to England, the headlines read skaters injured after accident. Take a minute to realize... Read More |

Why Skateboard Equipment is More Affordable Today |
| 5/15/2009 5:44:53 PM |
 Have you ever wondered why skateboard equipment is far more affordable today (even in light of inflation) than it was even ten years ago? When skateboarding first premiered, in the late 1970s, good skateboard equipment was very pricey. This is because it was an emerging trend that had few followers. When guys like Tony Hawk helped forge the sport and build it up into the... Read More

Skateboard Equipment of the Future |
| 4/22/2009 3:36:03 PM |
 It is hard to imagine where skating will be in the future but you can bet that it is going to be a much more extreme sport at least at the professional level. As the bar is raised, skateboard equipment needs to advance as well. There isn’t much you can do to lessen the blow of a forty-foot fall but in the future there may be something to keep skaters out of the hospital.... Read More |

Plant a Tree Grow a Skateboard Deck |
| 4/22/2009 2:30:58 PM |
 In the spirit of Earth Day, why not plant a tree to grow a skateboard deck. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and give us natural shading during their lifespan. But they also do some pretty great stuff for skaters. Plywood has become essential to creating a quality skateboard deck. There are other substitute materials out there but wood is traditional. So today, go to the local... Read More |
