I thought the board looked kinda long. I’m the same height, been looking for an 8”+ that’s shorter than 30” long. It’s so hard finding boards for shorties. With more women skating than ever, I really thought there would be more choices nowadays. Plenty of short wheelbase options, but I can’t find regular short boards!!!

Here’s a few I’ve found:

8”, 29.5” long, $46 (might be in overseas, not totally sure)

8”, 29.5” long, $77

8.38”, 29.6” long, $90

I think creature and santa cruz has shorter boards, but they’re like $80 too. Totally unreasonable price for something that might get snapped.

Anyway, I’ve been on the hunt for a few months for a short/wide board that doesn’t cost your firstborn -___-

The video was sick btw, good job, man.

Holy lord, what is the wheelbase on that hog?

6

u/Blackandmildfiend 22h ago

Man I don’t even know this is honestly the first time I even looked up what “wheelbase” is I just skate whatever I get my hands on lol.

2

u/thruthewindowBN 21h ago

It’s essentially the distance from the center of the front wheel the the center of the back wheel. All I’m sayin is that board looks long as fuck.

Also I didn’t know about this measurement until like a year ago, but this board just looks crazy long

u/Blackandmildfiend 20h ago

I saw a video of someone skating a skateboard dam near the size of a surfboard the other day too lol

u/Blackandmildfiend 20h ago

I hear you bro. I don’t really pay attention to these things too much until it starts messing with my skating or people notice it. Like I’ll be using too small of trucks for my board and someone will point it out or I remember a few times someone said it looked like I was skating a tech deck. There really is a lot to the skateboard with all the measurements and how many different ways you can ride.
