You should get a medium size board!

The skateboard you should get isn't the biggest - but it's not the smallest either! Medium decks are perfect for street skating and basic tricks like kickflip and ollies. The lightness and smaller sizemakes it easier to get airborne and do lots of nifty and quick little tricks. Nice choice! Would you rather a different kind of board? Have another go at this quiz and see if you get a different result!

You should get a full size deck!

You should get a good sized, soild board. Full size decks are perfect for street skating and advanced tricks at skate parks - not to mention dropping into pools or grinding rails and stairs. With your style of skating you need something solid to rely on! Would you rather a different kind of board? Have another go at this quiz and see if you get a different result!

You should get a wider board!

Your skating style deserves the biggest kind of board there is... a wider deck that stays solid no matter what happens. You don't usually do lots of nifty little hops and grinds, but your big wide board is perfect for cruising, longboarding and reaching huge speeds! Flimsier boards would instantly bail doing what you like to do! Would you rather a different kind of board? Have another go at this quiz and see if you get a different result!

You need a HUGE board!

Ok, according to our highly scientific quiz it seems the perfect board for you doesn't actually exist. Yet! You need one that's basically a seige engine, that needs 50 people to push it along with poles. This isn't because you're big, but because no other board would do what you want it to do... which is basically work like a living room you can attack castles with. Annoyed that this result is a bit silly? Well you did pick the silly answers! Have another go at this quiz and see if you get a different result!
