which deck should i get out of these an Alien Workshop Ultralite OG Logo, zero jamie thomas smith grind, toy machine small fists of fury, Blank decks that got pop, or.. yea i think thats it and also what kind of wheels should i get because my spitfire wheels are so slow and i have Red bones bearings so i think i need other wheels. So any opinions?

I'd get the blank or alien workshop but really it's up to you, i'm only saying them because blanks are usually good and i've only heard good things about alien workshops. Zeros are apparently dead strong but can be dead heavy from what i've heard and i think toy machine would be very similar, they're from the same factory i think.

it's not your wheels, it's your bearings, they may need a cleaning

well grim i dunno bcuz when i ride with my element.....here is the setup

Element Groove Deck
Fury SuperSport Trucks
Red Bones Bearings
Spitfire Big Head Wheels 52 mm
World Industries Riser Pads
Phantom 1" Hardware
Black Magic Griptape
------------------------------------
and i also have another skateboard (which is 4 years old but i got back into skating last year)

Powell Angel Halo or something
Fury Evo Trucks
Powell Wheels 53 mm
Speedy Demons Bearings
Red Devil Griptape (its black lol)

and the powell one goes a lot faster but the bad thing is its as loose as hell and the deck is chipped like a B**tch and my element is really tight and its small for me its like 7.25 or 7.5 but i need a 7.625 or 7.75 even though im like 5 foot 2" and my shoe size is 7 1/2. But the element is really freaken small to me.

your bones on your other deck might be less broken in, defects, smashed, dirty, or all kinds of things, just because they're the same kind, doesn't mean they're the same speed or durability

it can affect it if your wheels are really really soft. This gives you a smoother ride, but sucks up speed.

Anyways, it won't affect much. Your skateboard does not make you slow. your kicking does. Kick harder and you'll go faster.

Alien workshop deck and spitfire wheel's would be the way to go.
