so, i’m currently planning to skate. I’m looking for a good/bit cheap complete. Anyone knows where I could get one here in the Philippines?? I’m trying to lessen online orders because of the shipping cost. I tried looking around and saw some at a sports shop, Tge brand is Lakeway USA. any thoughts about them?? I kind of want to do street skating. ---

i love to skateboard! i have been for about 12 years now and it gets better every day! my fav brand would have to be a Enjoi board with Tensor trucks and ceramic bearings. if you can find those around u they will not disappoint =] ---

GO with tensor mags if you can get them. spitfires for wheels, and bones reds for bearings. If you are on a budget, try spitfire cheapshots for bearings… they are ten bucks and they run nice and smooth. ---

i recommend tensors for trucks. as a beginner get something that is low-mid range because that will give you a better center of gravity to get the board to flip. ---
