We love our local skate shop and thought it would be awesome to highlight them in a video that also teaches someone how to pick out all the different parts of a board at a skate shop. For someone who is a beginner this experience can be confusing and overwhelming. We hope this helps you pick out the right board for you!

What is your favorite skate shop?
Braille Skateboarding Out here in West Chester Pennsylvania, got one skate shop, and it for sure provides
Salt water dream
You keep on saying support your local skate shop, but how can i support it?
Zumiez
north beach
The thing they do with the grades is actually really cool.
I thought so too!
Ah I wish I have that in my community. Would've helped out a lot 😬 it would really push me into getting good grades
Totally awesome idea!!
I'd say that you should make a deal with your parents :)
I don't really know how grading system works in your country but if it comes down to the final grade talk to your parents and make a deal like the shop does , if u are having financial problems talk to them before the year starts so they would have time to save money !
Jerry Boynton III i would've loved that bc i usally have good grades
When your bearings cost more than your entire complete
I jus got a board today that didn't even cost as much as those bearings
@@cyrushengel9547 good luck buddy :)
Bro I got a longboard it was sick it was electric and it had fast fast it said poser on the bearings and wheels
I wanna buy a skateboard but I got no place to roll.
@@link-kun5974 dude is that botw Link?
So I just watched a random skate video that popped up in my recommendations and now Im looking to get a skateboard
Same here
@@vanzyl2547 I see you're a fellow South African
KiddSyrup 2007 fok ja
Lol
Same, I havent bought skateboard bc I'm broke af Cant even afford my own food.
170$ is easy on the wallet?
jesus, I must be super poor then
SAME
Lol in israel deck+trucks+bearings and wheels is about 280$ :P
Same
Same
I can relate
the way they give out stuff for good grades is genius. I wish I had a skateshop like that near me
Yeah, I wish I got good grades
MaynardOwns Pizza Hut is balls
Same then i could have a whole deck or sumthin because i keep my grades up no Fs or Ds or even Cs because of how much i study so i could have a board or atleast parts
MaynardOwns I wonder what I could get with straight A+’s (I study way too much, I have no social life)
yeah same, last year i got the highest i could get on my report
You say a lot of stuff depends on your preference, and if it's your first skateboard you don't have a preference
Wow, never thought of that xd
That’s literally what I was thinking
@Daniel Lerma just looking at your comment we can see you have an iq of less than 100
Daniel Lerma how do you know how it feels and what you like if you’ve never gotten a skateboard.... ur the dum one here buddy
CRΔZΨ JC because he’s been talking in a situation where you go to a skate shop to try out and eventually buy one. He also says that to reassure people that myths like shoe size don’t actually matter and that its personal preference of comfortability.
Jesus he looked so aggressive while using the tricycle 😂
David P chill dude I was just saying that it was funny I can edit the comment if you want
David P thank you, take care man!
tf are you talking to yourself?

928 LIKES ok
How am I gonna choose based on personal preference if it's MY FIRST SKATEBOARD
that’s what i was thinking 😭😭
If you just start go for average sizes maybe get an 8.0 deck with trucks that fit 52mm wheels and jessup griptape, pretty standard, that way you can work up and down from it
@@3krby thanks ;D
bob ross i can’t work up or down from it cause when I get my first skate board I ain’t getting another one for a bit
@@brock-4060 same bro, get an 8 and sed what you wanna do after that
That Orbit skate shop guy was so chill, damn I wanna shop there

My daughter would die for the free stuff for grades she loves skateboarding
get her one. making skating her passion
@@cloudrz I agree!!
I have to be honest, I kind of like it when Aaron gets serious about the technical aspects of skateboarding. He's way more knowledgeable than he leads on most of the time. Of coarse, it was "goofy Aaron" that made me sub in the first place years ago. lol
Same. I love it when Aaron gets serious. That's when his passion for Skating really shines through in my opinion.
Thanks guys!
Same
For real he's actually so humble in the videos and their competitions. I honestly think he could destroy everyone in a game of skate of he wasn't so easy going.
When you see a grown man riding a tricycle down the street, you know he’s a pro skateboarder! I’m back after a year. Applaud me! Lol jk
Edit: You are forbidden to like my comment ;)
😂
Yes tho
Taking the trike to the skateshop
Hell yah boi
@@_Not_Retarded clearly he needed a new board.
If I were there I'd pick that mcdonalds board in a heartbeat
edit: more like heartattack if ya know what I mean-
That's a DGK Stevie Williams board, from the cease and desist collection
Lol
Lol I saw that one would definitely get it
😂 same bro
Hahaha
When I was a kid, my local skate shop in Australia Ballistyx did the dead or alive thing and they would have them in a bin and you could buy them. Not having any money it was a huge help and the coolest thing ever. I really wish they still did it
Nice
What a great skateshop
A good skateshop is anything except walmart
Zumiez
Khristian Bierrum
Omg! I bought my first skateboard at Zumiez
What if you don't have any actual skate shops
Khristian Bierrum Fuck Zumies
As a father of two sons who are looking to get into skateboarding, this was super informative.
Jason Coulls or grandpap.......
I’m really glad you’re supportive of their hobbies/sport :]
El Cocaino stfu
SpareCoochieMa’am • lmao it was a joke man
Nora Hughes still xd
Imagine donating your old board to a skate shop and seeing someone else skating that board a couple weeks later, that would be an amazing feeling i bet.
I'm not a skater, but honestly, skateboarders just seem like the most wholesome people.
He made a 20 min long video saying it’s personal preference
Jonah Schwabl i found it pretty helpful since he explains how to find your personal preference
Jonah Schwabl 😂😂😂
It’s currently 1:03 and you made me laugh
ok but this is true.
🤦♀️
This skate shop is literally the best in the multiverse.
I’ve never heard of a Google sponsor
That gpa program is so important and people should make that more of a thing everywhere. Its so good to see people making an effort to making skating positive and changing peoples minds about it. And ps all your stuff with anderson was sick just got done watching all those videos and he inspires me. Thank you guys for your quality content and good work towards the skating community!
I was so lucky today, I got a zumiez employee that actually skates
SUPER LIGHTSABER101 me too bro ahahhaha
I feel bad that you guys actually shop at zumiez.
Ian Playz they are choosing a skateboard not that they get clothes😂✋🏻
Haha most of the time they dont even skate or know how to put a board together
Ian Playz bruh some people don’t actually have a skate shop near them and have to choose Zumiez
That's good that orbit do the good grades thing because it gets kids motivated to get good grades at school and study and skate skateboards so it's a win-win situation
Nice pfp
I agree!!
Orbit is my fave skate store, I got all my skate boards from them, except for the one I found on a street
@@user-nu2fs7jn7u around 100
That is Awesome!! I’m 46 and was a skater kid back in the late 80’s early 90’s , and I’m ready to start doing it and ready to start doing it again ! Definitely buying a set up from Orbit ! Great work guys !
Me: wow this is really neat. I kinda want to do this
“ so these are 120$”
Me: hold your horses! Pardon! For bearings
It makes a difference but not needed. Just get the reds. A complete with a pro decks and good trucks is 120 (at least when I bought my last one like 10 years ago) skated those reds for ever and they still work fine. Bet if I cleaned them they would be brand new.
i can still remember my first board to the last detail. Zero blood deck. Black silver trucks. black and red spitfire wheels. bones reds bearings. and that old grip jamie thomas used to ride with the cross on it. I miss being a kid.
RageLigent haha funny as hell 😂😂😂
Did you really need that expensive setup...
@Luka Arevalo for a first board 200$ is just unneccesary. I bet your first board wasn't that expensive. No need to get rude here.
My first board was a globe penny.
@@pleaserememberim9yearsold52 I just got a board and its 80 bucks, works great!
great video, I quit skateboarding 15 years ago and it's been itching for a while. so after watching this video I went out to my local store and got a really nice setup with your tips in mind. now let's watch your video on how to set it up. great to see u guys inspiring me and others to start or get back into skating. cheers from the Netherlands
Any shop like this is a gold mine that is few and far between. Love these places!
Orbit: ‘Good grades free equipment!’
My classes: A+, A, B, A++++++++, A++
@Braille now I’m gunna tell all my friends that I got recognized by a professional skater lol thanks.

@@juicecoil6400 True
I wish I lived in LA Texas make me feel sad
I don't have a close skate shop, the only thing is the Van's store in the mall
Try your best to find one bc buying a complete in a shop is expensive and you can def buy for cheaper at a local even if it's further then your nearest option, ofc if your limited on money don't do it!
Wait do you love in rosa
derek. Vans ain’t that bad it’s better than Zumiez
goon loks what about zumiez
My vans in my mall doesn’t even have skateboard
Good, informative video. Rode a ton back in the ‘70’s and last year got myself a WowGo 2S, which I use to commute back and forth to work. I figure it would be a good idea to get a regular skateboard so I can brush up on my skills after 40 years, so I will soon be putting together my first ever DIY board. Very much looking forward to it!
People with big heart are there everywhere in the world. Sometimes you get to see them on CZcams. Braille great initiative.
I like how they motivate kids to keep going in their schools i wished i lived around there and to be rewarded
Yeah!!
It's very helpful but things you could have mentioned are:
1. Saying that the nose can be identified by realizing it's bigger than the other end (the tail), and that the orientation of the graphic can usually differentiate the nose and tail too.
2. Talking about why someone would prefer one truck height over another.
can u explain?
What a great episode. I’m glad you two decided to roll this up after the last one.
Damn it I wanna go to orbit. I have good grades T^T
I'm a 22 yr old woman with a lower back injury. I want to take back my life and learn to skate! My friend gets so much joy from skating, and if my back is gonna be like this permanently, I wanna make the most out of my life and find joy in a new skill like this. Thank you for this super helpful video!!!
i wish i had this when i got my first board
just looking how to start skateboarding and your video really help me to know part about the boards. thank you and i think im gonna go to my local shops too
I bought my first board today, I’m really like how informative you’re videos are, and I’ll be sticking around 👍👍👍
Forget me getting a skateboard, where do I get that tricycle???
“it’s all personal preference” like that doesn’t help too much lmao
Hurriicanes If you want any tips I'll help you out if you want. For the most part he meant like colours etc. lol 😊✌️
@@KPark-hn8jf i dont have a very nice neighborhood and it has bumpy roads and rocks. I need something that can go fast and smooth but can still do some tricks, not the super hard ones. But atleast the basics. What would you recommend?
@@takumifujiwara9072 i got some bit wide 54 mm spit firws so there kinda like tiny long board wheels because they are so
smooth yet let you so tricks
@@takumifujiwara9072 the hardness of your wheel should be high around 99 thats the best for sandy roads last longer like he saied about board size depends on your foot size so good luck
@@takumifujiwara9072 get shark wheels
My local skate shop is FreeRide, they were Rodney Mullens first sponsor! Talk about a piece of skating history!!
Every place needs this shop
Respect 👏👏
I actually just got my very first board for myself a few days ago. Once the bad weather clears im gonna tear it up.👍
Wow. The system for the grades and that you get free stuff really looks like a motivating thing. I wish I could go to that shop tbh
Same!
Going to a local shop to get my first setup in a few days. I absolutely can't wait
Props to this skateshop giving back to the community!!
I started skating 2 days ago
I’m 20 and I love doing this skating has become the best stress relief outlet
I truly love seeing a community bonding over a similar thing
As simple as just skating
Thanks for you videos I think I might even invest in to my Local Community park just to see more people get out their on the skateboards etc..
Ps I started on a target skateboard 😂
But I got used weals through a friend looking to upgrade soon but everyone had just been giving spare parts here and their and it’s amazing 🤷♂️
I will forever be a skater now 🛹 idc even when I’m 76 I’ll always be skating
I hope to soon open up a Chanel just so I can donate money to make better a cooler skate parks.
M & M how’s it been going bro ?
You still skating?
_Code_ Green_ till this day still skating just can’t right now with covid 19 going on 😂 I already got chewed out by a cop
Yo, I feel you. I'm 20 and I just learned how to skate like three days ago.
Yoo, I'm 20 and I think I'm gonna start skating soon! I have a target skateboard (well, Academy, but I'm guessing it's a similar quality) thay I bought a few years ago so I don't know what to expect but hopefully it goes well
Oh! I was just there this morning! The manager was super sweet and helped me build my first skateboard. I love the finished product!
I’m glad that I live in that area because I can go to all the places that you guys promote and go to.
Im getting a board on the weekend so this is really helpful.
OMG a 4.0 = a free deck, I need to go there 😂
That's 3.8 higher than mine.
sarff lmaoooo
Is 4.0 good? bc in Germany a 4 is bad lol
Ja na a 4.0 is the best u can get if you don’t have honor classes
@@Kattmb3 in Germany a 4.0 equals a 1 lol
the worst one in Germany is 6
what if you dont know anything about it? and you said depends on what u like
Im pretty tall and heavy so i break any board pretty easily. Ive found that the almost impact decks hold up the best. Tensor trucks ricta wheels bones reds bearings. You wont be mad.
I guess just go into a skate shop and check out what you think you would feel comfortable with
bts shit exactly. he keeps saying preference! I don’t have one I don’t know my preference and I want to set up my own board I stuff getting a pre made complete but idk where to start or what I Lomé
Mikey Medina But they’ve never had a board before so how the fuck are they supposed to know what would feel comfortable????
Straight Melon Just grab a deck and stand on it. Choose one you like and then add trucks etc.
Great video man. So I’m probably one of your oldest viewers and just about to start skating. I was always more of a footballer (soccer to you guys!) when I was younger and just never had time to start skating back in the day. Now, with loads of spare time during the lockdown nightmare I’ve been thinking about what I’ve always wanted to do and really honestly it was to learn to skate. I’ll be teaching myself but these videos are incredibly useful for me so just wanted to say Thankyou.
Thank you so much this video helped me get my first board! My parents had to spend an extra lot of money but I am now learning thanks to you 🙏 your a god Braille
What a cool shop! I wish our local one here had a bit more stock to choose from, but I try to get what I need from them when I can (:
I went to a local skate shop because of this video, and omg I am sooo glad I did. Customer service REALLY makes a difference when getting your first complete.
James is such a Lad. Big ups to Orbit. The report card thing is such a great idea.
Orbit looks like an amazing shop and great prices and they opened in 95 when I was born nice 👍
Maaaan I love how aaron even after many subs all he wants is the same as ever bring more people to skate.
I wont give up braille remember linxz because I will be in your wearhouse with a bunch of tricks I learn from you...
#BigThanks.
Great video. I love how Braille and Andy shrock post videos today about starting skating and how important it is to the community and yourself. Great stuff guys
Thanks for all your videos man!
this was extremely useful. You’re very good with words my guy
i have been skating for a while and even though a know lots about skate setups i didn’t skip a second of this, Aaron does this very well and i think its gonna help anyone looking to know more about setups. Great Job Aaron!!
I love this channel. 23 going on 24. Never skated in my life but the more I watch the more I want to try. May be a little hard for me to get into with being over weight a little and not much time but it looks like great fun and exercise. Love the videos guys keep it up. Maybe some day I'll but a board and try it out.
I have teach a friend over 300lbs how to skate. Just take your time and learn how to ride-push-balance and turn left and right. Step by step bro ;) started at 23 to wish you good luck you can do it!
I just turned 29. I lost ~100lbs in two years from skating. I'm still terrible at it, but it's fun and great exercise. I was WAY overweight though.
You were literally me last, year I started skating and love it. Do it!
Thank you for watching and all of the support! I really hope one day we inspire you enough to get a board and try it out. It really is great exercise and in my opinion the best way to spend your free time.
Dude, what’s crazy is I sit here and think the exact same thing! I “used to skate” when I was a kid. (Hand-me-down Wal-Mart board) I learned to Ollie and how to credit card 😩 but now I’m 22 and over weight and out of shape but want to get on and Kick flip so bad! I feel you man.
I just ordered my teal board from Braille so excited I got a 8.0
DUUUUDE!!!
That report care system is SUPER AWESOME!!! 🤘😍
Ay I was just at orbit today
same
Well we dont live in u.s.a im in php lol php have bad bearings but its still good
these videos are super helpful. This channel made me want to skate. I'm 21 and just started learning. keep up the good work!
I just learned how to skate using my dads old as heck oldschool Santa Cruz skateboard anf it's do satisfying. I've been skating for a day and I'm already going down extremely steep hills. Idk what im doing but i havent found out a way to stop yet so either i just ride until the speed wears off or i fall. Thanks dude
Something about these skateboard setups I find satisfying
Hi Braille is thank you so much for helping my son pick his first skateboard! Your other video helped us a lot and so did this love you channel you helped my son skate thank you so much keep up the AMAZING WORK!!!!!
Dude I've been watching braille and people like Andrew shrock for a long time and I love you're channel it's helped me be a better skater, thanks man
Buying my first board today, really looking forward to it
Awesome vid Aaron! Love the School program also!
this was perfect I've been teaching my niece how to ride a skateboard(I personally never learned more than how to ollie) lately and just to learn how to push and stuff I got her a amazon board(i know not the best quality) but now she wants to learn how to do some tricks so I've been looking into how to help her pick her first complete set
seasoned sk8er still wanted to watch.
0:55 how I pull up at my homies house while riding my sisters bike
I'm 44 years old and getting a new board after 30 years. The shape of the board is throwing me off since my old Ray Barbie and McGill boards back in the day. Thanks for the info and I can't wait to go tomorrow to my local Oklahoma board shop.
The nearest skate shop is a 1and half hour drive so I'm stuck with zumez
Hunty Oof same bro I feel u
YO I FELT THIS
Bro skate warehouse
What makes Zumiez not a skate shop? They sell everything one would need to skate plus more right?
@@reggocastro9301 decks are overpriced
Braille back at it again twice in one day I like it... I like it a lot 👍👍👍👍👍
this was very useful u basically covered everything i needed
Just bought my first board off of Braille due to Covid...and so far I love it! Thanks for all the videos and taking care of the community.
That is awesome, I hope you keep skating even after life goes back to normal
Braille Skateboarding definitely planning on it! Super excited.
Hey why don't you guys make a discord but for skating so you guys can help out people in a faster way? And talk about it in one place?
Million dollar idea? Make it yourself and be rich 😂
Well they have video for almost every tricks you want and tel you how to do it in the video. I dont think you can really learn skatboarding by doing a conversation by telephonne/microphonne. + They alrdy made SKATEBOARDING MADE SIMPLE to help other out.
Dubs One well sometimes it might not be enough some of the newer or even older skaters and almost a immediate response in the chat
yes pls braille
Or a subreddit
I live what you do here aaron. I'm 36 and when I was 23 I was in an accident and now I can't skate but I live coming here and watching you guys and you as a person are just such a great guy it makes me happy to see you helping to keep skateboarding alive. I'm 36 like I said and with my injury being in my leg it makes it hard for me to be active so I'm like almost 300 lbs now and you make me a guy with a bum leg and way way over weight want to go out and get back on a board. My life as a young guy from like age 12 was to be a pro skater and it sucks I got that taken away but I love watching you guys and seeing all the new terms and tricks is awesome. I'm with you man it used to be the baggier the better.
i actually skate for a long while and know everything about it but i still watching this idk why but i love it :)
Wonderful tips for beginners! Thanks to all of you guys! 😁
Thanks a ton
From personal experience, reds are great
15:43 Had my volume quite low and wasn't looking at the screen/his mouth. Thought he said "sell them to buy drugs".
Idk why this video is just satisfying to watch
9:30 goin with the left all day. i know indy's are the classic and OG choice but tensor mags are just my fav trucks ever.
I still have my bone reds for 12 yeqrs ago and are still fast af and working strong love bones bearings
Ah I wish I had seen this a week ago, I just got my first skateboard and got an 8.25 as I just presumed bigger is better for beginners, like it is for surfing. This will be really helpful for my next one though! 😊
My first was a 8.5 it workd well for learning them i got. A 8.0 and 7.75 but decided my favorite is 8.25 i wear size 9 shoes
Me too ,its better to get some knowledge about them before going with the passion
I know going big might seem better but depends, if you want to do kick flips, Ollie’s, etc. I suggest a smaller width and if I wanna go skating down stairs or bars, you would need a bigger width for foot support.
Does it matter what size board you get ? Bc I’ve been wanting to learn how to skateboard for a while now but I’m nervous to get one bc I don’t even know what the things are called for the board
joanna h like I said, departs on your foot size. Whatever your feet feels comfortable with but I suggest a smaller width if you want to do flips and tricks that go sliding down bars which is scary at first for beginners.
My grades have been good for a while I think I’m gonna get myself a skateboard
Awesome!
