Skateboarding is one of the most popular recreational action sports in the world with skateboarders of all ages and gender using a skateboard for fun and as a form of transport. The activity usually involves moving on a long board attached with wheels and performing stunts at different places. Learning how to ride one on flat surfaces takes weeks or months but mastering these boards for stunts requires years of practice and a lot of trial and error. Snapdeal has a wide range of skateboards that can be ordered in a few easy steps.

Board construction

Skateboard are made up of five primary components; Deck, Grip tape, Trucks, Wheels and Bearings. The deck is the board part of it usually made up of multiple layers of laminated maple wood combined with polyurethane coating for extra strength and resilience. They can take the weight of the rider and all additional forces acting on them during the ride. The Grip Tape is a sheet of fabric or paper with one adhesive side that is stuck on to the board to provide the rider with a firm grip to stay on the board while riding and performing stunts. Trucks are metal attachments that fit the wheel mechanism to the deck. They support the roller bearings upon which the wheels are mounted. The bearings reduce friction and make it easier to roll while the wheels usually made out of polyurethane are tough and come in contact with the ground.

Choosing your Board

Depending on your experience you can choose boards that are the beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. The size of the skateboard is important when considering buying as a beginner as smaller boards are easier to manoeuvre. The wheel size determines the ride and smaller ones are better for transport, and not much stunts and the bigger ones are better for tricks. The shape of the board takes a while to figure out if you are a beginner and, as you get better, you can pick any shape that suits your style.
