  • @Enigma6191 size 8 shoe is good for a 7.5 or 7.6 board dude

  • Getting back into skating, I have an Almost Mullen deck but its way to small for me. going to give it to my nephew. I wear a sz 12 shoe so going to see how I like 8.0 or bigger.. any suggestions on new decks? ive been away from skating for a while.

  • @HOUGHJMK

    i think you do

    i work at a skate at a skateshop but i get a free board every 2 months lol

  • Shoe size has nothing to do with the width of the board u need. It all depends on what feels good

  • i need some help guys my foot size is 8 and i dont know what should i pick i try all the sizes but idont know if what is the good one currently my size of my board right now is 8.2 and it will snap and ill buy new one next week reply guys plss

  • Damn same board

  • i like that creature

    how much is it?

  • @TheNerdunderground Toy Machine's aren't that good ... Get a Baker, they have an all-around use for street/park/tranny.

  • @std2killer I found my old girl board and I think its a size 8.25 if not well I'll just have to buy the toy machine board haha

  • @TheNerdunderground Size 12? Dude you need 8.25 - 8.3

    7.75 is way to small.
