Hey. I borrowed a skateboard from my friend but I need to give it back really soon so I was going to buy a new skateboard on BoardZone and this is the setup I decided to get.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deck - Blue Blank
Trucks - Lucky Raw
Wheels - Blanks
Bearings - Generic Bearings (ABEC 5)
Hardware - BoardZone Hardware
Griptape - Jessup

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is my board good for a beginner?

Thanks

Silvers are such pure shit, it's not even funny.

Ok... Screw the Urethanes I'm goin for blanks. So now i have a blue blank with Tensor Trucks and Blank Wheels. Bearings are Powell Redz, Hardware is BoardZone and Jessup Grip.

That good?

Ok... Tensor or Grind King? I Can't decide! They both look sooooo cool. Price isn't really an issue because its my gr. 8 grad. present.

Heres the Link http://www.boardzone.com/skate/shop/skateboard-builder/Blank-Complete/Index.cfm?fuseaction=ChooseProduct&categoryindex=2

The two trucks I"m debating over are the Grind-King Mid-Bandana and the Tensor Low Raw
