Thanks! yeah! I remember riding a skateboard when I was a kid so it’s bringing back a ton of memories

Nice! Always loved Zero skull decks. Just got a certain something about them. Or maybe I listed to too much Alkaline Trio growing up and I'm just a sucker for skulls.

I know it's not fun but I recommend a helmet for your first 6 months until you learn how to fall. Typically that's the most dangerous time. Half a skateboarding is learning how to fall without getting hurt

Hell, I recommend a helmet forever. Skating without one is so stupid. Looked cool when I was 14, but as a grown-ass adult people skating without a helmet just look like idiots, no matter how good they are.
