Size Guide
Deck Sizing
Choose deck width based on your style, terrain, and shoe size.
Length and wheelbase vary by shape; width is the key starting point.
| Deck Width | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 7.5″ – 7.8″ | Youth, smaller riders | Lighter, quicker flips; less foot space. |
| 8.0″ - 8.125" | All-around street/park | Great starting point for most skaters. |
| 8.25" – 8.3″ | Street & park balance | More landing room; still flicks well. |
| 8.5″ - 8.75 | Park, bowls, transition | Extra stability and control at speed. |
| 9.0" + | Vert, cruise, bigger feet, Swampy | Stable ride; flips feel heavier. |
Shoe size tip: US Men’s 6–8 ≈ 7.75–8.0″ • 9–11 ≈ 8.0–8.5″ • 11.5+ ≈ 8.5″+. Preference varies.
Truck Sizing
For best performance, match truck axle width to deck width.

Wheel Sizing
Pick diameter for terrain/speed and durometer for hardness/grip.
| Diameter | Use | Ride Feel |
|---|---|---|
| 50–53 mm | Tech street, smooth parks | Quick pop & flip; least speed over cracks. |
| 52–54 mm | All-around street/park | Balanced speed/control; most popular. |
| 54–56 mm | Park, bowls, small transition | More roll speed; stable landings. |
| 56–60+ mm | Rough streets, cruiser, big transition | Faster over cracks; heavier feel. |
- Durometer: 99A = classic street; 101A = harder/faster (smooth parks); 78A–87A = soft/cruiser/rough ground.
- Contact patch: Wider = more grip/stability; narrower = easier slides.
- Wheelbite tip: Bigger wheels may need risers and/or firmer bushings.
