What are the best skateboards to do flip tricks with?
i was thinking of a pi and an enjoi? are those good choices?
For flip tricks you'll want a narrow deck like something from 7.5-7.8, I use at least a 7.75 deck with size 10.5 shoes, works great. enjoy is a good brand, get their resin 7 deck for a lighter more durable deck it's made using a special resin that is lighter than normal stuff keeping the deck light and durable with 7 plys. smaller wheels like 50mm-54mm are good, if you use small wheels and low trucks you'll need some riser pads. Low trucks also help with flip tricks keeping yo ulow to the ground.

well if you like flip tricks a light long board would be good (not a real long board that 6 feet long you know what i mean) and some id say 42 wheels but yea a brand… umm right now i skate a american zero but that pretty heavy (maybe cause its a lil water logged) but my old blind was real light so try that
