just go to your local shop and by a blank setup. Or get the shop's deck, thunder or royal trucks, blank wheels, and get some abec 3's or 5's for bearings.

yea its a long road to were i am now. its my 5th year (4th minus the year i got addicted to a computer game). ull learn as you go skateboarding isnt half as easy as everyone thinks. its not like skiing in any way. i promise u it will get fustrating trying to learn the basics i remember when i used to get pissed off and go inside because i couldnt kickflip and fuck now i can literaly do it with my eyes closed while making a stupid face. so just keep practicing, JUMP...ALWAYS jump...and keep it steez!

if it's your first setup you don't need anything special..a shop-blank, cheap set of wheels (i prefer hard wheels), the set of trucks should be your most important buy. You want something that fits your deck(width wise), is light and responsive. Second hand gear works just as well.

why do you think I like to skate tranny more than street? because it feels smoother and more natural like skiing. you have to pop out of the coping, and when you spin off a rail you have to turn your shoulders early....just like skiing.

dont worry about little 12 year olds that have every trick on lock and can do anything. if you compare yourself to all the people who are amazing, then you'll never feel good about yourself. just try to get better by your own standards.

TO THE COMMONS!!!! but not up thos estairs......theyre forbidden fruit. and dont even think of landing a 737 in there on ms blums watch, she'll kick that shit out especially if it doesnt throw away its yogurtt

get a dna board, they're really light and nice. Get Spitfire classic wheels 60mm. They're good for ramps and shit and they're really fast. Get tensor trucks, they have a noseslide piece whci his cool and they're really light too. Then get fkd or something abec 5 or 7. Thats a sick set up for skateparks and stuff its really fast and nice thats what i'r riding.

Attitash Feces Crew keeps it real and crunk
 
the specifics of your board doesnt matter, just look for something cheap to start out on. you dont need high quality everything at first because chances are it won't make a difference.

yeah go to a shop and ask them, they are usually cool about things like that. but you said its kinda like skiing when you 50 50, not at all. if you want something like skiing then rollerblade

just please dont buy matching pink trucks with your matching board and matching wheels, and SKATEBOARDING IS NOT A CRIME teeshirt and a trucker hat and some Etnies and Zero or die writsbands. youll look really gay if you do that, unfortuanly a lot of kids do.

back in 6th grade i was determinded to skate too so i just bought a used complete, and practiced skating to school eveyday until it was easy. Then i spent 3 days in my drive way unti l i could ollie and then learned pop shuv its, and then manuals, then kickflips and then nollie onto shit

skateboarding is tough. i know a couple of skiers that a good at skateboarding. Personally if i were just starting i would go and get the whole works except get abec 3 bearings because if your starting out and have fast bearings it is really hard. Practice Practice Practice and eventually you'll get flow and style. Also if your learning, do bowls and half pipes it will really give you the feal of skateboarding. Keep the gorilla steeze because for any extreme sport keeping your kneas bent is the best thing. Go to a local park and just ride everything before you learn all the tricks and crap.

 
deck: mini logo or some blank

trucks:destructo or krux

wheels: what everbut not too soft

bearings: bones reds

anything else(hardware, griptape):the cheapest

DONT GET ALL BAM PINK MATCHING SHIT...ITS VERY GAY!!!!!

Pick up a bmx bike, way more fun in my opinion. And you can actually use it for transportation unlike a skateboard.

When you start out skateboaring please dont be one of those kids posting videos of themselves doing really bad tricks and trying to defend thier video like its wicked good.

^no. it really doesnt help. on the street it is FAR different. on the grass its just far too different to learn. id say if u wanna learn the stances and flips then hold onto a fence or something
