8.25 is my go to for everything however I rode my buddy’s winkowski deck and that old school pool board is AMAZING, jus feel so stable riding on anything and fast AF

@dustinalicea3304 6 лет назад

Such good meme potential

@jamalydude 6 лет назад

I think like many have mentioned in the comments a big factor is wheelbase, Wheelbase drastically changes your boards feel and performance. Personally I am a shorter 5 foot 7 guy and I love a 14 inch wheelbase but if a tall wide and long legged person was to ride my board they would think it’s too narrow and pops too fast.

@eight_hundred_eighteen 4 года назад

I think if you switch it up every now and then you never feel weird when you try another size. If you rode 8.25 all the time and you try something wider or narrower it’s gonna feel off. I ride a Powell 10 inch vert board but yesterday I was trying to get heel flips using a Powell 7.6 . I think about How Gonz uses different boards and rips either way. That’s my inspiration

@jeffberridge176 3 года назад

My 8.25 was pretty nice but I ended up getting an 8.358 thinking it wouldn’t make a difference… just loved the graphic. Wrong. So much extra stability.

Stop riding kiddie sized boards if you ever did ride a 8.5 you never want to go below. :)

@marley1995 6 лет назад

Samuel Heart just stop, I was riding 8.5 when you still rode a 7.75. We can fluctuate between sizes.

@cheothegeo2742 6 лет назад

honestly for me the size doesn't matter. but the concave and the kicktail totally does. It has to be mellow-medium concave with a mellow kick. no exceptions.

@powerviolents 6 лет назад

ur wild, i ride 8's and anything more than that and i cant skate for shit

@cheothegeo2742 6 лет назад

the fattest I've ever gotten was 8.25. I've never tried anything bigger.

@darkknight17 6 лет назад

What's the difference between mellow and steep tail on terms of pop?

@cheothegeo2742 6 лет назад

steep tail means it takes more effort to pop. there's more of a delay in the pop. Thus, more effort = higher pop. but for me I need a quicker snap. popping with less effort takes less of a toll on your body. and you can skate a lot longer without getting sore. the height of your trucks also plays a huge roll in that too if you're looking for a quicker pop.

@darkknight17 6 лет назад

Kermicheo Kermit thanks bro. I've always wondered whether to get a steep or mellow tail and what the difference is. I've currently got a Powell-Peralta Flight deck and it's a mellow tail. Pop doesn't seem great but it ollies quite high when I view videos of myself practicing. I guess I'll stick to mellow. How old are you? I ask because you mentioned it takes a toll on your body? I'm 36 and work long hours. I know when I'm tired I lose the motivation to practise ollies and other tricks. I just wanna cruise.

@skatendestroy87 6 лет назад

8.38 is where I’m at might fuck around and try an 8.5 for the hell of it.. I’m really picky about my shapes though quasi is my current go to but I did get a foundation for $20 clearance and it’s light as hell kinda throws me off

@Drthumper420 Год назад

Just grabbed a 8 , 8.125 , 8.25 , 8.38 and a 8.5. going to try them all out see what i like the best. Used to always ride 8 , 8.125 or 8.25 never really saw that much of a difference other than shape of the board used to always be happy with 8.125 but excited to try 8.38 and 8.5. does it really matter tho when you're talking only so much length to me not at all but they definitely have different shape w each size

@Y34RZERO 4 года назад

I love the feel of 10 inches but I can't really figure it out to get tech with it. I can do some basic stuff and use it for crusing. If I want to get tech I have an 8.5. I like shaped decks. Gotta have some curves to it and have a fat ass tail.

@mr.jamster8414 4 года назад

Get one with a nose if you wanna do tech, i have one with no nose and its hard to even ollie.

@Y34RZERO 4 года назад

@@mr.jamster8414 I got 2 different decks. Most of the time I just skating a curb or parking block. Ollies are no problem unless I'm trying to bone them out to get higher. My 10 inch deck has no nose. It's old school shaped. My other deck is more modern at 9 inches wide. I have more fun on the old school shape. My first board was a 1987 NASH skateboard. Heavy and full of gimmicks.

@michaeljames2564 6 лет назад

Yes, it does. Happy medium is an 8. Nice balance for flip stuff, gaps, rails, etc.

@sambateman4998 4 года назад

@ianturnbow7011 6 лет назад

It's all subjective. I have skated 8.25s for the last 9 or 10 years now. The only issue that ever comes up is the wheel-base (which, should always be determined by length " vs. WB ") for these decks.

@kendtchileninjah5905 5 месяцев назад

I remember starting and 8’s were considered huge. I was on a 7.75. Then I got on an 8 and after a week I noticed 8.25’s were the huge boards. Started riding 8.25’s for backside/frontside stability on gaps. Now most ppl I ride with are like “f*ck those 8.25’s..8.5 is where it’s at”. Idk if I’ll try one but I do feel a comfort spot with 8-8.25

I didn't realise how much it mattered until i changed. Rode 8.25 for a year and a bit. Changed to 8 and literally couldn't make anything and lost all confidence. Changed back to an 8.25 about 2 months later and felt right back at home again

@samuelheart3489 6 лет назад

Jason Longo .. same. Did go from an 8.25 to an 8.1 and it was always to small. Now I am on a 8.5 and boy... why did I ever ride something smaller. It pops higher. You lock into grids better. It feels so cruisy. And the standard flips work just fine. You feel like you are grown up finally :)

@jasonlongo6823 6 лет назад

Samuel Heart you can pop some mad height on 8.5s. I don't understand how anyone rides 7.75s at all. I definitely won't ever go below an 8.25 for me

@samuelheart3489 6 лет назад

Jason Longo .. absolutely. I went through all sizes and shapes since 89. And I really can say that 8.5s are really the most fun and atv. Well, can’t say how it would be if I would ride perfect LA concrete all the time though.
