Help! 5 year old wants a skateboard for birthday.

My son started skating at 5, and I live in an area with a lot of young skate kids, so I can give you some advice. Also, you should know that young kids can learn really fast and get good very young.

Insanely helpful! Thank you so much!

You want pride or quality?

Sounds good! Just wanted to make sure that if going with a board from Walmart, it wouldn’t present issues with learning how to skate.

Go to your local skate shop if you have one. Get a real skateboard, nothing from toy stores or Walmart. You could get a decent complete that would be ok. A "complete" is a board that is already put together, most of the time with cheaper parts, but it is definitely suitable for a 5 year old beginner. Santa Cruz has some good completes. Or you could build from scratch. This will be more expensive but you get to customise everything. I built from scratch my son's board. I love skateboarding, so it was fun for me, but I've also got him completes, and I don't think he even noticed the difference. Definitely get a good helmet and some pads. Triple Eight or Protec helmet and 187 Killer or Protec pads. You could probably get a kids bundle pack for this.

Super helpful - thanks!

You should get the best quality(not necessarily price).

Yeah. Sort of what I’m getting at too. I don’t need price - more so what’s the best quality for a 5 year old so that they learn to love it rather than hate it.
