Honestly, just get whatever you want.
If you're not good enough at skateboarding yet to recognize what you like, you probably shouldn't be wasting money on "the best" equipment.

best can mean different things. you can go by actual physical quality, or YOUR personal preference.
by actual physical quality, the best boards ARE from DNA (habitat, AWS), deluxe (real, krooked, anti hero, rasalibre-stillsomeleft), kayo (dgk, organika, expedition), and tum yeto (foundation, toy machine, pig-stillsomeleft), and maybe giant too (popwar, bueno, ..?)

tum yeto (foundation, toy machine, pig-stillsomeleft)
What do you mean by, Still some left?
Early on in skating it doesnt matter too much, but Spenser is completely right.

Giant also makes black label too. Um yeah like these guys said don't go with the "best" products in our opinion go with what you like, and if you don't know what you like go try some stuff out.

^^^I disagree. Element and destructo is of poor quality.
Is Pig going to continue making wheels?

Its all a matter of personal prefrence. Personally I like Flip decks best. I've heard alot of good stuff from FIGHT! skateboards.

i would just get a blank deck, venture trucks and some blank wheels, maybe consider getting a more expensive one after that.

hey dude ...really everybodys idea of the "best" board is different just try out different boards an see which one you like the best..it all depends what footing an even what kinda way you skate just fel comfortable with a board in general first dont just go out and get the best money can buy as you may in the future feel skating isnt for you.good luck dude. :rolleyes:
