If there is a limit can you reccomend a strong board that won't snap? Thanks!:-1:

there are no limits for skateboarding. the resin-7's and resin-8's are really strong but they usually don't skate good. you should know that all boards can snap easily, somebody else can make a list as i'm too lazy. welcome to the forums mate.

you also are a dumbass who doesnt skate well

How ironic.

answer 1: talking about what you dont know about skateboarding
answer 2: i know for fact that half the people on this site do in fact suck at skating, their posts proove it.

Haha I saw an Airwalk deck at Wal-Mart that had a weight limit on it. It was like 175 lbs I think.
Toy Machine and Habitat/Alien Workshop are the best IMO.

if your board snaps all the time does that mean you will constantly have to replace it? No offense dude, but i don't have it. is there any thing that you can do to prevent wearing it so bad?

well, yeah. most boards only last a month or two. for you it might last more but you shouldn't worry about snapping it. you can try getting a bigger one if your tall or weigh more though. just remember to land on the bolts and don't drag your tail to stop.

Your boards only wear out fast if you're an experienced skater and skate a lot.
If you're a beginner boards can last up to a year, depending on how good they are, and how good you get in that one year period.
It shouldn't be an issue for you unless you've been breaking a lot of boards lately, but that probably won't happen for a while, so don't worry about it.
Anyway....
I'm not familiar with Spartan boards so they could be a Wal-Mart deck. Where'd you see this deck?

ive had 7 pro decks this year. I never snapped any of them on purpose. All broke from skateboarding. So hope that answers your problem

That doesn't mean you're good in any way. In fact, it means you land wrong or buy shitty decks.

Seems like every flipping discussion has a flamer in it anymore. Anyways.
Considering that skateboarding consists of different styles and preferences, use whatever you want, I mean if you skate good, who cares if you're skating a walmart deck or anything like that? Express yourself dude. Forget what we say. :]
And sketchy_style, grow a brain, get some balls, figure out what you're talking about, then come back.

first off... freaky styley, i cant stop watching your avatar.
and i doubt that a deck is going to break because of your weight. unless you are like 1000 lbs or something. decks will bread due to skating on them but there really isnt a weight limit.

To me you look like an angered pre-teen who get angry with his skateboard because it spins to slow on a kickflip.
Shut it or leave.
