Also, are you going to get a new board/setup because of rust? You can just take it apart and clean it. You might have to replace the bearings, but those are way cheap. What brand trucks do you have?

Imma be real, I really only go by price and thickness of the deck.. I've gotten Roger Skate Co and Heart Supply decks recently. They're pretty damn good, though the heart supply feels thicker than the Roger Skate Co, so it's a little bulky, I think it's because it's a bit cheaper lol
I'm a skate nerd, what size wheels do you have? I had to get huge ones cos I live in gravel land lol

ohh okok does thickness ride better or wha ?? also how do i check xd ToT i havent been into this stuff in a while also sorry for my shitty responses

It's doesnt really make a difference except with thickness, when I said the heart supply seemed thicker, I also meant it's just a little heavier than the Roger Skate Co, so it takes a little more getting used to with turns. It just depends on what you like/how you skate. There are dimensions on most decks online, but I think they're making shit up half the time lol
And if you were asking about wheel sizes, they usually say the mm and durometer on the wheels.

ah, okay okay good 2 knoww tyy, and idk if my shi just faded off but it doesnt say the size lmfao

That sucks, maybe you got some whack wheels. I guess just measure them in mm and squeeze them if youre gonna buy new ones lol the higher the durometer the harder they are.
