2.MINORITY 32inch Maple Skateboard
Usually a beginner board is heavy and comes with thick wheels to prevent riders from falling off. Apparently this is more than a beginner board, though it not pro boards. It actually rides similar to a cheap element board. The good thing is a high quality board will speed up the practice for any tricks. So if you are learning skateboard and looking for a low budget board, this is your choice.
With the MINORITY, you get ABEC-9 bearings and quick 52-millimeter, 102A hardness, polyurethane wheels. The 5" aluminum trucks with PU bushings and a carbon steel kingpin give you a durable and lightweight base for your board that allows for responsive turning and easy landings.
This board is strong and tough. It will ride well and safely for new skaters as well as those who are more established. Simply pick the design you love and get started.

- Unique perimeter shape gives 9.6-inches of leverage into every turn, while also eliminating wheel bite
- Full maple laminate deck; reverse King Pin (RKP) longboard trucks with 245-millimeter axles

This ultra-low-riding longboard ensures maximum stability, making it ideal for downhill carving, and its ease of pushing takes some of the wear and tear out of around-town commutes. A unique perimeter shape gives 9.6-inches of leverage into every turn, while also eliminating wheel bite.

4.Krown Rookie Complete Skateboard
It is Krown Rookie Complete Skateboard (Red Flame)
Bought this for my sons birthday! HE loves it! Stylish, well made for the price. We’ve only had it for a month now, but its held up really well. This seems very durable for the price.
5.Punisher Skateboards 9001 Cherry Blossom Complete Skateboard, Red, 31-Inch
For a “beginner” board this one is quite good. It seems to be very sturdy and built well and the graphics on it are great. Some of my daughter’s friends did some more advanced tricks and skating on it and it held up well. One thing though is the trucks on it are very tight and will need to be loosened a bit to make the board more responsive, but that’s easy enough to fix with a small wrench. In all, we have no regrets with this purchase and would get it again.

This has been a great board so far. I’m 6'2" and i shop in the husky section, so I was initially concerned about the board supporting my weight, but I’ve had no issues with it to date. The trucks were a bit wobbly for my liking initially, but once I got them dialed in we were good to go. I mainly use it for cruising the neighborhood and chasing my son around while he’s playing outside. More advanced riders might want to upgrade the bearings and/or wheels if you’re looking for a little more performance, but I’m built for comfort, not optimal aerodynamics. That said, I have taken it down some hills in the neighborhood and it will pick up speed even with my doughy frame. The neighbors also seem to find it amusing to watch a middle aged man cruising around on a skateboard with his shaky knees and gray hair, but whatever. Considering that I haven’t died on it, and it hasn’t splintered under my massive frame, I’d say this was a solid purchase. (Pun Intended).

The bearings are terrible…..I tried my first kickflip and the board broke. The trucks don’t even have the right tools to change the looseness or tightness of the trucks. So I had to buy a new board at a skate shop, I’m still using the trucks and wheels and bearings but they are terrible. This is a rip off skateboard. It doesn’t even ride farther than a few feet w these horrible bearings.
10.SKITCH Complete Skateboard Gift Set for All Ages with 22 Inch Mini Cruiser Board + Skateboard Backpack + Skate Tool + Tote Bag
WORTH THE PRICE, WITHOUT A QUESTION. Just an incredible mini cruiser skateboard all around. Much lighter, amazing bearings and way better carving than my penny skateboard. My girlfriend also prefers it to her penny skateboard, and to her heavy, hard-to-carry longboard.
Don’t need to look further, or waste your time and money on the cheaper options – This is the holy grail of penny style skateboards right here.
Here’s my breakdown of why Skitch Skateboards are the better choice for both beginners and for pros:
Beginner:
- You can limit speeds, much safer for beginners.
- More lightweight and easier to carry around.

- Still a great board to use once you become pro.
- Cool backpack to carry on your back easily.
Professional:

- Deck isn’t too flexy for bigger riders.
