I broke my deck 2 days ago and it was my first and shitty it costed near 100-110 dolars.It's name was area.Made in germany.And my friends say buy a new complete cause their trucks and wheels(i hope its calling like that)sucks,too and if u buy plan-b , santa cruz,baker deck and if u use area trucks and wheels people will laugh :D.So buy complete but if i buy complete i will buy a lower quality one like Foundation etc. near 160- 170 dolars Cause i don't have so much money suggestions? And i saw a skateboard it has element wheels etc. near 220 dolars but i can't afford it now.Should i save up money but i should get a new one before go skateboarding day and people say when will u buy ?? pff...

What the fuck? Man you are spending way to much money on boards. Now I buy my shit from my local shop called tgm. They have an online store tgmskateboards.com, I don't buy completes. I build my own shit
Right now i have
Deck - Zero - $50
Trucks - Destructo - $30
Wheels - Bones - $30
Bearings - Lucky abeck 7's - $20
Hardware - Alien Workshop - $5
So my board only cost like $135. Just buy the parts and put them together. Half my life is spent towards skating so i'd take my advice. You don't have to spend like over 200 dollars to get a decent board. You save ALOT if you make your own. And if all you broke was your board and you're about to get a whole new complete, then (no offense) but your fucking stupid.
Ok i've been skating for a long time and experimenting with boards so this is what i've discovered over the years.
Good Boards (Not In Order)
Alien Workshop (They last FOREVER)
Zero (Great Pop/Good Life Time)
Enjoi (Great shape, pop, and fell, but don't last to long)
Almost (Last forever, but i'm not crazy about thier shape)
Baker (Good pop, and last long)
Plan b (Good pop)
Boards to stay away from
Element (I don't even have to give a reason, these things are garbage)
World Industries (Snapped it within the first week)
Darkstar (Horrible pop)
Birdhouse (really flimsy and just not strong at all, and if you ollie of high shit it'll last about a week)
Blind (These things are pretty much flat, worst pop of all)
Toy machine (Tale wears too easily)
Ok thats pretty much it. I hope it helped answer your question. Oh and if you are gonna buy from that site, DO NOT buy core trucks.

i don't think i'll buy from a foreign website.i will go to the store this weekend but that's the only store in this city (and it's the third most crowded city in Turkey ) and they sell more expensive than usual.There is a turkish site ,too maybe i may buy from them thanks for advices
i think i'll buy only deck(plan-B or Baker ,Santa Cruz) and use shitty trucks and wheels.But if my friend pays much money for them.I'll sell them to him and buy a complete and i'll ask about building my own complete to store.I will look that website and i may build my own complete ,too.
