BUYING AND BUILDING THE CHEAPEST SKATEBOARD AT ZUMIEZ | What to buy and how much?

[@_SHARKS_]

I bought a revive board some Amazon trucks and independent hardware I got the grip tape from revive. And spitfire wheels,bones bearings including spacer and washers. For those who care it was all a total of about 160 bucks for everything I did not skate it yet but this is my first pro board and I wanna say spend a little more because when you get a new board you won’t have to by everything brand new if it is in good quality. Thanks for the video and have a good day…hope this helps.

I only just found this guy's channel. It's refreshing to see that he knows the products. A let of stores. In Australia we call the surf shops. 80% clothing 20% skate and surf gear Where a skate shop. 80% skate gear 20% clothing. Not sure what type of shops are in America. But the best skate shops in Oz are little almost hidden stores own and run buy skateboraders. But unfortunately. They can be expensive compared to a franchise store. So sorry to just jump in.

Thank you so much. I’m a beginner about to choose my first board and I learned a lot from this video! Especially which brands are trusted and which are not! Also, I would’ve gone with the turquoise wheels bc they’re a little lighter, but pink looks good too

[@ethanknight936]

The thing about zumiez is they up their prices so it’s more expensive than local shops

[@Keegan_Co]

On certain things that may be true but on a lot of skate they are the set price from manufacturers..for ex. Rush abec 7 bearings are sold for $10.00 if you go to most local skate shops they are going to be priced at the same price or sometimes at $14-$15 when it comes to reds bearings the price for those used to be $17.95 but after covid they raised the price to $18.95 in order for the distributors to make more money since they lost a lot of money from closures and such...same thing happened with trucks and decks and for most places prices went up to offset the profit margins and keep people in business...but that being said zumiez also offers a discount for when you build a board that actually cuts the price down quite a bit sometimes now for local shops most of them stayed at the same price during the pandemic but once everything goes back to normal I see prices dropping for everyone and going back to normal hopefully 🤷‍♂️ but you are correct there are some things that are more expensive for sure

[@ethanknight936]

[@diplenski]

Superior are often overlooked/underrated. They are probably the best value standard wood board you can get. They are from the dsm/dwindle camp(almost, enjoi, darkstar, globe, blind, etc.) and as far as I can tell, they just don’t have pros so they pass that cost savings on to the consumer. Good boards, good shapes, good price

[@Keegan_Co]

100% agree with you

[@whiteaccord]

When I got my first 7.75 board it was a plan B from zumiez w/ independent trucks and redz bearings+wheels and it ended up being around 120

[@Keegan_Co]

Thats about what the old discount price would've put you at but now thanks to covid prices went up for everything

[@noahhuraan5353]

I went to a store in korea called “stallboards” they dont have independents, bones or any high quality stuff because shipping it to korea is hard for the business. They said they were around for 7years and nobody in korea really skateboards, they mostly longboard. Overall the stuff I got from them was nice. The bearings are abec9s and the trucks are calibers which he said was a great brand. Dropped a nice $200 on the board and plan to spend more before leaving to help support that shop and hopefully get them to stock trick skateboards😁

[@Keegan_Co]

Calibers are long board trucks and they are really good so thats awesome! Hopefully you can help get them into more skateboard style stuff but longboards are still cool too!

[@vg4917]

if you have more money buy the blue too and you can mix match the wheels

hii, so i bought my first board today! i am so excited to start skating! I bought most of my stuff based off of your videos and what you recommended, the total came out to be 160 or something like that😅 that board looks amazing even though its the cheapest, you should definitely try it out and ride it, anyways have a great day :)

[@Keegan_Co]

Nice!! What set up did you end up going with? I think 160 isn't a bad price at all that sounds like you've got some good parts for sure! And I may skate it a little bit and then give it away apparently thats what everyone else is saying too!

[@Mystninja]

Many years ago there was blanks, Team board and pro boards. Blanks everyones got in a pinch. But didn't have full plus in the middle. I'm not sure about wood glue (PVA) but I'm sure blanks where still resin. Team boards. Some people say it's a step up from blanks. I didn't like the team (logo) decks. I assume there different quality timber but and in the top and bottom of the press and stack. I never seen any with half plys like blanks. But there was something off about it. Pro modal (including pro stock logo boards) best shape and wood. mid press. Most time going into the cut and finish. And let chance of sitting on a loading dock or shipping container so less moisture or heat warping. Now days the companys like blind and darkside are doing team board at blank pricers. In Australia anyway. Blanks $60 - $80Aud Team logo $80 - $100Aud Pro stock $100 - $150Aud Tbh I'll skate anything. But like anything you get what you pay for. There is nothing wrong with cheap wood blanks. Alot of the time there rejected pro stock ie 1,2,6,7 in a press stack. Or have a ply gaps in the mild plys. But team logo boards are from the china press and tend to have different rock maple. And depending where it's printing will don't there could be shipped twice from China to America the be printed then say to the UK. And that's when boards feel soggy. All high end boards are pressed in Mexico or I think there is one press in the USA still. But there are 5 major board pressing factory and they press boards for the the top board company's. Keep skaters in jobs. Buy from skate shops.

[@joshuathomas4934]

I currently ride a 8.0 ccs deck, 139mm independent trucks, ricta sparx wheels and bones reds. Pen grip tape. Ccs deck is nice. I like them.

[@aeroshep2678]

Yes local skateshops are better because they care about the community

[@corail53]

7 layer laminated with wood glue has been industry standard for all brands for pretty much ever. Pro decks are built exactly the same as the team decks (shape wise is really the only difference) and shop blanks.

[@Keegan_Co]

The "new" way decks are made is with resin its lighter and creates a stronger bond in most cases so a lot of brands have switched to using that instead of Woodglue But you are correct pro decks are built exactly the same as team decks

[@benlawrence7147]

7:16 this is very misleading, if you can then always buy from a local shop. Your local skate shop is run by skaters and buying from them will support the skating community. Zumiez is a corporate company and buying from them takes away from local skate shops which are small businesses that don’t make anywhere near as much money as zumiez. Also, usually people at actual skate shops have more knowledge about skateboarding than people that work at zumiez because a lot of people that work at zumiez barely actually skate. And local skate shops usually have a better selection of actual skate parts, zumiez has some boards, trucks, bearings, wheels, etc. but an actual shop usually has a much better selection, depending on where you go at least, zumiez has way more clothes usually though. Overall, buying from a local shop supports skateboarding, buying from zumiez supports a corporate company.

[@Keegan_Co]

I agree with if you have local 100% support them because they need your business but if you don't have one and you have zumiez it's okay to support zumiez the money also supports the brand itself.. there's small board companies that get introduced to zumiez and take off just because they were put into zumiez first Also there's a few local board shop brands that are in zumiez as well which in turn helps that local businesses grow... not everyone really knows about this or thinks about this it's just about corporate hate but infact zumiez really does try to help the skate community and small brands... I was the SM of my store and 90% of my employees were knowledgeable in some way for skating and the skate culture.. I know not every store is like this and that does bum me out but there are a few that are run by local skaters.. just some food for thought! 🤷‍♂️ but again definitely support local if you have it that would be first priority

[@Keegan_Co]

No your questions were good! Alright soo...it really depends..sometimes when its removed from the website its because we are sold out....this doesn't 100% mean its gone forever..sometimes we'll get a restock of a specific item and then they will put it back on the website...what board were you looking at getting? If its a specific release or a collaboration most of the time those are a limited release and once they're sold thats it..so it really depends 😅 i hope that helps answer your questions once I know what deck it is I can maybe help you a little further

Hey start skating now itll help lose weight! I actually gained a little bit of weight this year thanks to covid and everytime I skate I always feel a little bit better 😂

[@SuperBilleh1369]

@@Keegan_Co I figured it’d be a good workout. I’ll hafta look into getting a board and learning. I don’t know much about the skate scene in my city. Hopefully they’re LGBT friendly.

[@Aaron-wg9nr]

was wondering, cuz im new to skating, when u buy trucks, do they come in pairs or do u pay for 1 each?

[@Keegan_Co]

You pay for 1 each sadly so your total for trucks should be around 40-50 bucks

[@Aaron-wg9nr]

@@Keegan_Co oh i see, thank you though🙏

[@cortezagain]

vid really helped thanks but one question do you like street or park skating more?

[@Keegan_Co]

I like street skating more but im not great at either one 😂

[@hiddenbread2728]

I have that same deck Edit: it’s personally an amazing deck, but I’ve ridden some of my friends skateboards and I can tell their decks are better even when they are worn down

[@Keegan_Co]

Nice!

Yoo sikk vid bro, I was wondering what board I should buy cuz I got one from a swap meet on Monday and it broke on me yesterday😭😭, Idk if I should get a pro board first or a cheaper board as my first new board. What do u think I should get?

[@Keegan_Co]

It depends on the brand honestly Are there a few brands you're thinking about?

[@45spurt4]

@@Keegan_Co yea dude for the pro boards def deathwish and baker, and as for the cheaper boards I honestly don’t know what brands r decent🐺, rn I just need a board that can last longer than a week😭😭

[@Keegan_Co]

@@45spurt4 so deathwish and baker would be good if you go for cheaper some of the brands I've had okay luck with were blind and superior I also sell shop decks on my website (shopkeeganco.com) starting at $40 and they're pro style decks

[@nicholasmcclain3131]

What happened to element, I used to worship them and my first Board was a BAM element board

[@lilmonsterruben5013]

That's fire 🔥🔥🔥 even it cheap

[@kxzoor]

My local shop got way more options , I went to zumiez last week and they had no options

[@Keegan_Co]

It's due to covid and how fast they're selling everything it's hard to keep up with supply and demand

[@darksoulwarrior9662]

Dude are the complete skateboards the same good wood quality?

[@Keegan_Co]

Some companies use wood glue and some use resin so it kind of depends on that..resin makes a stronger bong so it'll have more pop and last longer but for the most part the deck quality is about the same for completes
