Finding the best Kids Skateboard Size is super important. If the board is too big it may be difficult for your child to handle, but a little extra width can aid, balance and usability for entry level users. When sized appropriately, smaller Boards will be beneficial in terms of board feel and tricking. The most important aspects of your child’s measurements to pay attention to is overall height and Skate Shoe size. If your feet are hanging off the sides of your board where it’s too narrow, this will impact balancing on your board but would be spectacular for flipping and tricking about.
