When I was young, my toys were various car models, airplanes, tanks, and cannons. When I grew up, they became cars and houses. But when we were teenagers, we loved skateboarding. This is simply the most perfect toy, it can be carried on the bus, it can also replace walking, and when tired, it can be used as a chair on the ground. But do you know the characteristics and differences between skateboards? Let's find out together.
- Ordinary Skateboard
Most people play this, it belongs to street skateboard, and it is generally used to practice all kinds of cool moves. Such as flipping boards, dolphin jumps, and going down steps. The playability is very strong, and it is also very exercised. It can also be used for street skateboarding. The board surface is made of multi-layered maple wood, the head and tail are raised, and the wheels are relatively narrow and hard. Generally between 95A~101A. The structure and strength requirements are high.
- Rubber Skateboard
The board surface of this kind of board is made of engineering plastics, and the price is cheaper than wooden skateboards. It is mainly used on the street and is small in size and easy to carry. The feature is that the wheels are wider, the hardness is softer, and the single warp style is adopted. The board surface is not pasted with sandpaper, and the plastic texture is used to increase friction. However, because the board is too short and narrow, and the stability is not high, it is generally more suitable for girls.
- Longboard
Generally, it is very exciting to do a power slide with a steep slope. It can also be used to brush the street. The board surface is much longer than ordinary skateboards. It is generally about 100CM and 25CM wide. It is made of maple or bamboo fiber. There are formal bridges or reverse bridges in various styles, most of which are reverse bridges. The wheels are wide and soft and more adaptable to the road surface.
- Street Skateboard
Some are also called longboards, which are mainly used for walking and brushing the streets. The board surface is generally wider than ordinary skateboards and shorter than longboards, and the hardness of the wheels is generally softer than both longboards and ordinary skateboards. Like the longboard, the wheels are also very wide, the purpose is to improve the adaptability to the road. Like the longboard, the wheels are also very wide, the purpose is to improve the adaptability to the road surface, and it is more comfortable to slide. There are also many shapes of this kind of board, some are long boards, some are shaped boards, and some are ordinary boards.
- Single Warp Skateboard
This kind of skateboard is a very old one, mainly for freestyle movements. Only the tail of the board is tilted, the head of the board is not tilted or slightly tilted, and the board is wider than ordinary skateboards. Now this style has become a toy skateboard.
- Fingerboard
Small and compact, suitable for carrying around. It can be used to exercise finger flexibility and develop the brain. Don’t think it’s just a toy because it’s small. It can do a lot of things that a big skateboard can do.
- Freeboard
This kind of skateboard has only come out not long ago, and it is mainly used for downhill. Its biggest feature is that there are 6 wheels in total. In addition to the necessary 4 wheels, 2 movable wheels are added between the front and rear axles.
- Flowboard
This kind of skateboard has not been on the market for a long time, but it is very popular. The biggest feature is that there are many wheels. There are 7 rear wheels, 14 in total, each wheel is separated from the other, and an arc-shaped bracket is used. The wheels are reasonably stiff. This design makes its turning control as smooth as surfing in the sea during street skateboarding.
- Zboard
The history is not very long. It is divided into remote control type and induction type. The remote control type needs to hold a remote control device to control the skateboard at any time. The inductive electric skateboard can complete acceleration, deceleration, turning, and other operations by itself according to the change in your body's center of gravity. The wheels use rubber wheels, and the surface of the board is usually pasted with sandpaper, and there is also a small rectangular opening on the surface of the board for carrying it in the hand. The price is much more expensive than the former, and it is a real electric skateboard.
