If you’re (or shop for) a kid or a teenager looking to move beyond just rolling and start learning ollies, kickflips, and grinds, you need a "Popsicle" shape. Unlike cruisers, these boards are symmetrical with a nose and tail designed specifically for "popping" the board off the ground.
Santa Cruz & Creature skateboards offer the best quality complete skateboards on the market. You can choose between a budget friendly "Standard" complete made of 7-ply Birch or a more "Premium Complete" range built with 7-ply North American Maple. Maple is denser and stiffer than birch, providing "long-lasting pop" - the "snap" you feel when you kick the tail down. If you're serious about street skating, go Premium.
