Not even 2 min and you explained it perfectly! thank you for the best concise explanation.

[@SO-ym3zs]

A very sane, straightforward guide! Nice chart at the end, too. I like your point about getting the board that excites you. Yes, it might be harder to ride at first, but a board that's really calling your name, so to speak, is one you'll probably keep coming back to and having fun with if you feel a connection with it.

[@pennyboardtyler]

Absolutely, and I am very glad to hear! I appreciate it 🤙🏼

[@hata3128]

Thank you! I have been practicing my 22-inch board for a few weeks now. I can't thank you enough for all the videos you've made. I even learned to carve (a little bit) recently, also thanks to you. I really enjoy riding and hope to be more proficient in the near future.

[@pennyboardtyler]

Yoooo I’m stoke to hear!! Keep going & keep on cruising! 🤘🏼

[@daviddombroskie5206]

Great video comparison. You did a great job explaining pros and cons. I got both size boards and totally agree with everything you said. The penny is just pure fun. The nickel is so much easier and stable. Love your energy and passion. Your a breath of fresh air on KZbin. Thank you!

[@pennyboardtyler]

Love to hear, David! And thank you! I appreciate your kind words a ton 👊🏼

[@stevestomp4235]

Thank you brother

[@pennyboardtyler]

For sure 🤙🏼

[@sahil_ali999]

Nice video ❤

[@pennyboardtyler]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@adamholt3105]

I got both and like to switch the variant. As a beginner, nickel all the way.

[@pennyboardtyler]

Awesome to hear, Adam!

[@brianfischer5609]

I originally bought the 27" because I thought the original penny was gonna be too small. However, I bought a Hurley 22" knockoff, and put my penny wheels and bearings on it (I tried to put the trucks on too, but the holes didn't line up), and it's actually a pretty nice ride.

[@pennyboardtyler]

Glad to hear you dig the 22” set up!

[@spiritualdawg3623]

I’d say if you’re buying it for the durability, but want the same feel as a regular skateboard, get the bigger one.

[@pennyboardtyler]

Another thing to think about

[@tobyorencia1039]

I want to have blackout but shipping cost here in Philippines is too expensive. Im not sure if Penny skateboard has physical store or online store here in PH?

[@pennyboardtyler]

Ahhh yeah I’m not sure about that…to my knowledge I don’t think they have a physical store

[@esk8unity]

did u ever have wheel bite on a 22” or 27”?

[@pennyboardtyler]

To my experience and knowledge, I have never gotten wheel bite on the 22 or 27"

[@clarenceleekasiangscss6507]

Another thing is the price. The 22 inch is cheaper than the 27 inch

[@pennyboardtyler]

Yes, great point Clarence! As of this comment, the 22-inch Penny goes from $35-$70, and the 27-inch Nickel goes from $50-$80

[@takethecurseOFFwashingmachine]

I’m 235 with size 15 shoes. I better go with the 27

[@pennyboardtyler]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@ChoriAriRafly2000]

for speed, which one is superior, 22 or 27 ?

[@pennyboardtyler]

Penny Skateboards claims they’re both “built for speed,” but I personally think the 22inch is slightly faster from my own experience

[@ChoriAriRafly2000]

@@pennyboardtyler Thank you bro for the information, then I choose 22, because I like speed

[@pennyboardtyler]

@@ChoriAriRafly2000 Let's go! Have a blast with it 🤙🏼

I love my 22-inch Penny Board . Feels so much agile
