Stop guessing what gear to buy - FREE Setup Calculator
Most adults don't fail at skateboarding. They start on the wrong setup and then wonder why nothing works. So I've built a FREE Skateboard Setup Calculator. It's in the classroom now. Put in your height, weight, shoe size and age, and it gives you the deck width you need, the truck sizes that match it, wheels, bearings, and roughly what the lot should cost. Pick your country and the prices come out in your currency — US, UK, Europe and Australia. It does your safety gear too. Helmet size off your head, pads off your knee and elbow, wrist guards, butt savers. Tick what you actually need and the total changes. It sizes kids as well, so if you've got one who wants a board, that's covered. Set your budget and it changes what it recommends. Cheapest points you at a complete and the three biggest shops where you live. Best gives you the full parts list to take to a skate shop. And at the bottom there's a sentence you can read straight out at the counter, so you're not standing there guessing. It's free. Go have a play 🤘 >>> Use the calculator here <<<

If you could do one thing on a skateboard by the end of 2026, what would it be?
Hey everyone! Quick one today. There's about three months left in the year. That's actually heaps of time if you pick one thing and stick with it. So I want to know. If you could do one thing on your board by 31 December, what would it be? Could be anything. Rolling without the wobbles. Carving a corner at the park. Your first kickturn. Rolling up and down a small ramp. Dropping in. Skating to the shops without walking the downhill bits 😅 Drop it in the comments and I'll do what I can to get you there! Then we'll check back in December and see where everyone's at. Mine's getting proper backside smith grinds. 26 years in and I still have a huge list 😂 Can't wait to see what you all say 🤘 Theo

Day 2
My day 1 was with my kiddo and we were rolling pretty slowly in the garage together. She was wearing the protective gear and my husband was spotting me. I wish I’d had the camera rolling for those first pushes but we were living in the moment and having fun. 🙂 My day 2. Just me at home so I put the gear on (pads and wrist guards) and set up a camera so if I did fall, my husband could at least see how I met my demise 🫣. No helmet or padded shorts yet. I was doing pretty well until I lifted my front foot, the board spun around, and down I went. Like a sack of potatoes. 😂 I laughed it off and immediately went on Amazon for a pair of padded shorts because my butt/hip is gonna be bruised. I’ll be getting serious about a helmet as well. If you’re debating on pads and wrists guards and you’re just starting out - get them! Video is just my last successful push before I went down on the next one.
