fr tho, I got one board worth around 100 (Canadian) for 30 bucks but it was like brand new, I think someone bought it realized skating wasn't for them and donated it and a longboard around 115 bucks, mint condition for 13 dollars, they even had another board for 10 that was nice but I didn't need another one
I think my fist was a Walmart one when I was like 5 or sum idk but when I wanted to get deeper in to it I was like 8 got my board at family dollar 💀😭 it was a maple one to😭
Gotta admit one of my strongest boards was baught at Walmart threw on some reds bearings steel trucks and sims wheels for cruising but even with some stress cracks it hasn’t actually broke anywhere lol
My first board came from Sears. Maybe 1987. It was heavy as hell, but I learned to ollie on it. Then when I got my Mark Gonzales board I could suddenly hit huge ollies out of nowhere. It was like running with ankle weights.
Respect for recognizing that Walmart boards can be useful for people who are just starting out So many communities, skateboarding included, are so quick to shit on cheap products which just isn't welcoming to newcomers who don't have too much money to spend
Some people want to start skateboarding so they buy a 70-150$ board and they end up realizing skateboarding is not their thing so its best if you learn to ride and maybe ollie in a walmart board.
Bro support your local skate shop and get a quality product, plus, when you first start skating, boards last a lot longer, I kept my first board for like a year when i was first starting
@creaturefear4165 I cannot find it online for the life of me. I've been looking everywhere. It wasn't a bad board to learn on but nothing compares to my first 'real' board.
The first two boards I ever had as a kid were from walmart the first one was pretty bad but helped me learn my stance at least the second one was a tony hawk one which was decent enough to allow me to learn to drop in on ramps I learned that before ollies I'd still advice getting a complete or something slightly better
The walmart board i started out with was actually decent. It had full aluminum trucks, abec 5 bearings, pretty good wheels, and a decent deck which was surprising.
A shuv it was my second truck that I learned I take breaks on skating on holidays and sometimes have a hard time coming back to those tricks any tips to keep me updated and work out my muscle memory
Did anybody remember the airwalk McGill board Walmart used to sell in like 06' not gonna lie for 48$ that board was actually a pretty decent board first decent board I ever had
My first board was a blind brand board it costed 110 at a skateboard shop it started chipping then I got a new board than my board now it’s a baker brand it costed 280 dollars for everything I got shoes a backpack and a skate tool to when I bought it
I had a walmart complete, with plastic stuck in the trucks and all, but the trucks were metal so that avoided the biggest issue, never broke and im on my fifth board
My first board was from toys r us and it had ninja turtles on it, one day my dad said I should personalize it so I covered the whole bottom of the deck with silver duct tape
My first board was 100$ board and then I upgraded to a 250$ board which I custom picked all the parts myself just shows you can go from a cheaper board to an expensive board in a few months depending on how much you advance and how much time and effort you put into skating
My first board will be walmart board next month when i get my alowence but i have a longboard and a scooter they cost 100 and 179 dollas but i cant skateboard
90% of people who ever skate will never need to go beyond this level. I spent way too much on my stuff I can’t even do a damn ollie 😂 but at least my trucks will last forever? 😂
bro starts whipping these tricks out like a beginner could do them
I learned the same tricks on a Walmart board
He's showing even if it's a 17 dollar board it is still capable
My thoughts exactly
He’s just showing you that this stuff is quite possible with this budget board
@@FirstLast-qj6lh It’s like Eric Clapton jamming on a first act guitar 😂
Better advice go to your local thrift shop most are bound to have one set up in rough shape that’s 200% better then Walmart for the same price

Mini Logo Complete goes from $46-110. If you even want to think about riding long term that’s where you should start.
