Get a zero. The punk decks are good, and just any size deck they have is good.

Lemonade is trying to help, not looking for a wise-ass comment back. I'm skating blanks right now, there really is no difference besides a graphic. BlankDecks.com is a good bet, but if you don't want a cheaper deck that is the same as a graphic deck, like I said, go with zero.

I think you should just buy 1 board,and that being a simple complete from Blankdecks.com. That would be more of a beginning board than a Zero
:rolleyes:

destructo are better than tensor..but thunder and ventures RULE!

Tensors and Destructos for the most part suck balls. Don't get a Zero either.

Why are you getting two boards? You proabably shouldn't, because you haven't figured out yet that you just basically named the four worst boards possible. Especially if your just getting a starter board. If you're starting out, I doubt you're going to need another one for a while.

exactly,my first board lasted over a year(and at that point i was still stupid enough to leave it out in the rain)

Ok Listen to me
All the companys you listed are horrible.. Go with one of these AWS (Alien work shop) FIGHT! ( www.fightskateboards.com ) Krooked, Habitat, www.blankdecks.com , Toy machine, Black Label

Your best bet would be AWS FIGHT KROOKED HABITAT and blank decks.
Trucks: Krux just get some krux or thunders or independants trust me those are the 3 best trucks out there. ventures are nice to

Wheels: Spit fire or rictas are nice size 52-53 mm
Bearings: Toy machine T sects Bones reds or if you have money Bones Swiss or rockn rons
hard ware: Who cares?

Blank decks, shorty's aint to bad, and baker and zero aint bad just get a blank then kids will think your good because you go through so many boards you skate blank ones.

Alright and I know those companies are horrible like i said it's just a begining board but i'll just go with what koolaid said.And thanks whitney girls skaters do rule i know a bunch of chicks that skate ^^.But just so you know the reason I'm gettin two boards is because I have a tendency to f-ck stuff up so yea. And the truth is I'm gettin five boards. Two for me and one for this chick who totaled her board and the other two for friends of mine.

i think if you're still a starter, get a blankdecks, or minilogo decks they're both cool for beginners

By that logic any board would be good for beginners. It's better to get something good when starting out so you learn tricks better instead of shit like Element.
