Buy cheap complete skateboard
If you are on a tight budget, a complete skateboard is again the best option, as brands configure complete skateboards in large quantities, with guaranteed components, which makes them cheaper than buying each part separately.
Also, our recommendation is that, if you are just starting out, you should buy a cheap complete skateboard, as you won't be able to appreciate the difference with a higher quality one at the beginning.
What we do recommend is that, even if it is a cheap skateboard, you buy it from a specialised skate shop and that the skateboard is from a well-known brand. Avoid skateboards sold in toy stores or shopping centres, as they are not usually quality products.
What complete skateboard should I buy?
Here you have all the information you need to know to make the right choice when purchasing your complete skate.
Deck
The most important measure to take into account is the width of the skate deck. It is measured in inches, and goes from 6 to 10, although the most common are between 7.5 and 8.5. On our website you can use filters to search only the most appropriate size for you. In the following table you can see the recommended deck sizes for each feet size.
Remember that it also depends on what you are going to use your skate for. To do tricks, the smaller the better, because it will be less heavy and easier to handle. If you prefer ramps, wider decks will give you more stability. For example, on a skatepark, you may appreciate a few inches of board on which to “fall” your tricks.
So here you have the general recommendation for a versatile use (in case you don’t know yet what you like the most and want to try everything):
| Feet Size | Deck's Width (inches) |
| < 35 (and children up to 8 years old) | 7.0 - 7.5 |
| 35-39 | 7.5 - 7.8 |
| 40-42 | 7.75 - 8.0 |
| 42-44 | 8.0 - 8.25 |
| 44 or larger | 8.1 - 8.6+ |
The central part of the deck is not completely flat, it is a little concave from side to side, to make it easier to control it. This concavity can be more or less deep, so there are high, medium or low concave boards. This choice is much more personal, it depends only on your taste and with what you feel most comfortable, so the best option is to decide on a medium concave to start, and try them all at the first opportunity.
Trucks
Skateboard Trucks have different widths and heights. The width will depend on the size of your deck, although it is not exact, a certain margin depends on the preferences. In general, it is not advisable that the wheels protrude from the board, nor that they remain too far inwards. In complete skates, brands have made sure to put together the right choices for each case, so if you have chosen the width of the board well, you don’t have to worry about the width of the trucks.
The height also varies. There are high, medium and low trucks, depending on the distance between the base (the part that is screwed to the deck) and the height at which the center of the wheel will remain. Most complete skates have medium trucks, because they are the most versatile. In addition, the height of the trucks limits the size of the wheels that can be used, since if the trucks are low and the wheels too big, they could be braked against the board (‘wheelbite’).
Anyway, if later you want to try bigger wheels on your skateboard, you can get some risers to gain more height. They are pieces that are screwed between the base of the trucks and the deck.
Wheels
Skate Wheels can have different sizes, hardnesses and shapes. The wheels of the complete skates are chosen to offer maximum versatility and adaptability. The common measures are 52 to 54 mm diameter, and have standard durometers.
BEARINGS
The skateboard bearings of complete skateboards are quite standard and versatile, and they do not need maintenance, so you can start without having to worry about that. Many brands (though not all) classify the difference between bearings by a scale called Abec. The middle term is an Abec 5, which is used in many complete skates. The higher the number, the better performance. For beginners, from Abec 3 is ok.

Jart Skateboards History
Jart is a Spanish brand that was founded in 2002 in Irun (Basque Country). Iraola brothers (Igor, Ander and Iban) come from a family that has been dedicated to the wood industry for a long time, which, in along with their passion for skateboarding and other sports, encouraged them to create their own skate decks. Until then, the manufacture of skate decks was something that was done almost exclusively in the USA, there were no large producers in Europe.
The three brothers made their first deck in the garage, back in the year 2000, and throughout these years the business has grown dramatically. Today they own the manufacturing and distribution company called HCL, which makes more than 20,000 decks per month and includes other brands in addition to Jart, such as Sk8Mafia, Habitat or Flip.
Jart follows all the guidelines for a good environmental practice, it could not be otherwise, since they know well the materials, the manufacturing processes, and they are faithful to their ideals of taking care of our planet. The hard maple they use in their decks comes exclusively from controlled forests in the United States, and the correct waste management during the producing process is also very important for them.
The iconic logo of the brand, two concentric ovals, represents the growth rings of the trees.
Jart Skateboards Decks
Where are jart skateboards made? The Jart factory is in Irun. They press every deck one by one to ensure the highest quality, and not massively into a mold as other brands do, because that way could be uneven in terms of shape and concave.
The extensive catalog of Jart Skates has been designed with a skater lifestyle in mind. Their boards are perfect for skaters of any level, from beginners to the most advanced. They can have a variety of concaves so that everyone can choose how much control they want to have on their skate. They also offer many different measures, from 7.25 for the smallest riders, to 9 for pool lovers.
As for the designs, throughout all their years of history, they have launched many different series, always characterized by a touch of elegance and good taste. Browse among the different series to find the ones you like the most: Jart Logo, Jart Classic...
Jart Skateboards Wheels
As a great manufacturer, quality is ensured in everything they produce. Jart wheels have their own urethane formula, and the center hardened for speed and precision. They are available in sizes from 50 to 55 mm and with several different hardness options. The designs are similar to those used for their decks, always cool and original.
Jart Skateboards bearings and skate accessories
Jart manufactures chromed bearings of different ABEC (Abec 3, Abec 5, Abec 7). Chrome is a metal that is very resistant to corrosion, thanks to which your bearings will be more durable.
Currently, Jart is manufacturing all of its bearings sealed on one side against dirt. On the other side, they have a rubber protector that keeps everything in place, but at the same time it is very easy to remove to clean the bearing as often as we should. The retainer (the part that keeps the balls separated from each other) is made of nylon 66. All bearings are lubricated with high speed oil.
Jart Complete Skateboards
Jart complete skateboards have a great quality. They are made in Europe and offers a great performance for those who want to start skating with good material and for those that are already experts.
All the pieces (deck, wheels, bearings) are from Jart, except the trucks, that are usually from the great brand Iron.
In addition to a wide variety of designs, Jart offers many options in its complete skates, not just the most basic as it happens with many other brands. If you already know what you like for your skating, in Jart you can do a more specific search and still find a complete skateboard perfect for you, because they offer some with high or low trucks, Abec 7 bearings, many wheel sizes, etc.
