What skateboard deck size is ideal for children?

Comfort and handling are very important for beginners! Therefore, the skateboard should be chosen carefully, depending on the rider's height. For children, we recommend short and wide decks with a width of 7.25" to 8.00" . These boards, with their compact length (approx. 28") and extra width, offer enough standing space for kids to balance safely and practice their first tricks – without the deck becoming too long and unwieldy.

From what age are short & wide skateboards suitable?

Short & Wide boards are perfect for children ages 5 and up , as they offer plenty of room for small feet while still being short enough to easily master turns and maneuvers. This way, kids won't lose control and have more fun cruising and practicing tricks.

Which skateboard suits which body size?

Once your child reaches about 1.45 m (4'7") tall, it's worth switching to our Mid-Size decks . They have the same concept as Short & Wide boards, but are slightly longer (28" - 28.5") and slightly wider (8.0" - 8.5"). This provides more stability and control as your child grows, keeping pace with their progression.

Why are complete sets the best choice for children?

A complete set includes a deck, trucks, wheels, and bearings that are perfectly matched. Parents save time and money because they don't have to buy all the parts separately. Complete skateboards can be ridden right out of the box. This way, kids don't waste any time and can try riding and doing tricks right away!
