BIG Complete Skateboard

Unlike entry-level completes that often use generic, unbranded parts, this setup uses industry-standard components like Independent trucks and Spitfire wheels. These are the same high-performance parts experienced skaters choose, ensuring better durability and a smoother ride right out of the box.

Yes, these are excellent for street skating. The 54mm size is a versatile middle ground that offers stability for tricks while remaining nimble, and the 97a durometer provides a perfect balance of grip and slide, making them ideal for rougher street surfaces and skateparks alike.

Shock pad risers serve two purposes: they provide a slight cushion to dampen road vibration for a smoother ride, and they help prevent wheel bite, which occurs when your wheels touch the deck during sharp turns or heavy landings.

The right size depends on your personal preference and skating style. Narrower decks like 7.75 inches are generally easier to flip for technical street skating, while wider decks like 8.5 inches offer more stability and surface area for transition skating or cruising.

Most high-quality bearings like the GP-S perform best after a short break-in period. You might notice them feeling slightly stiff during your first few sessions, but they will loosen up and spin more freely as the internal lubricants distribute evenly.
