Why Choose Specialized Girls Skateboards?

Skateboarding is a unisex sport. But when selecting a skateboard for kids, you should consider factors like height, weight, and preferences in design.

This tailored approach can make learning more comfortable and enjoyable for young female skaters.

Key Components of a Skateboard for Girls

The Deck: The Foundation of Girls Skateboards

The deck is the wood platform on which your child stands. When choosing girls skateboards, consider:

• Width: 7" to 7.75" is typically ideal for a skateboard for girl beginners.
• Length: 28" to 30" works well for most young female riders.
• Material: A 7-ply combination of bamboo and maple offers durability and the right flex for girls skateboards.  
• Design: Many girl skateboard decks feature vibrant colors and fun graphics.

Wheels: Smooth Rolling for Young Female Skaters

Wheels significantly impact the ride quality. For a girls skateboard, look for:

• Size: 53mm to 54mm diameter wheels are suitable for a skateboard for girls.
• Durometer: 90a offers a good balance of grip and roll for beginners.
• Color: Our girls skateboards come with colorful wheel options.

Trucks: Steering and Stability

Trucks attach the wheels to the deck. For a skateboard for girls:

• Width: Match the truck width to the deck width for optimal performance.
• Material: Aluminum trucks offer durability and responsiveness.
• Height: Low profile trucks provide more stability for young riders on a kids skateboard for girls.

Bearings: Smooth Spinning

Bearings allow the wheels to spin freely. For a girl skateboard:

• ABEC Rating: ABEC 7 bearings offer reduced friction and smooth riding for girls.
• Neoprene Sealed Bearings: These cleanable bearings protect against dirt and debris, extending the life of your girls skateboard.
