Where can I find cheap skateboard decks?

The best cheap skateboard decks are pro decks on sale. Skate shops mark down boards from real skate brands when a new graphic series comes in or a size runs over, so you get pro construction for close to the price of a blank. Right now that means decks from April, GX1000, DGK, Sour and Welcome, plus single boards from Krooked, Frog, Primitive, StrangeLove and Santa Cruz.

What is a good price for a skateboard deck?

A good price for a pro skateboard deck is $60 to $90 at full price. Sale decks on this page run $50 to $68 (September 2026), marked down from $60 to $85. Decks much cheaper than that are usually blanks or big-box boards made with cheaper wood and glue.

Are cheap skateboard decks worth it?

A pro deck on sale is worth it. A cheap no-name deck usually isn't. Budget boards tend to lose their pop fast, chip early and warp, which makes learning harder. A marked-down deck from a real skate brand is the same board it was at full price, just an older graphic or a width that ran over.

Can a skateboard deck lose its pop?

Yes. Every deck loses pop over time as the wood flexes, soaks up moisture and gets chipped on the tail. When your ollies start feeling soft or slow off the tail, or the tail is chipped down, it's time for a new deck. If you skate most days, that can happen in a few weeks to a couple of months.

What size skateboard deck should I get?

Pick your deck by width. As a starting point:

• 7.75" to 8.0": smaller feet, younger skaters and technical flip tricks.
• 8.25" to 8.5": the all-around range most skaters ride.
• 8.5" and up: bigger feet, transition, pools and bowls, and a more stable feel.

Sale decks right now run from 8.0" up to a 10" shaped Welcome board. Match your trucks to the deck so the axles end close to the edge of the board. Looking for one size? See 8.5" decks, or shop every skateboard deck.

How much should I pay for skateboard wheels?

Pro skateboard wheels usually cost $34 to $40 a set at full price. Sale wheels on this page from Dial Tone and OJ Wheels run $19 to $28 (September 2026). Before you buy, check two numbers:

Hardness (durometer)

99a to 101a is hard urethane for street, skateparks and smooth ground. Softer wheels, around 78a to 90a, grip rough asphalt and roll quieter for cruising.

Size (mm)

50mm to 54mm is the street and park range. Bigger wheels roll faster and over cracks more easily.

Skate sale FAQ

Why are these skateboard decks on sale?

Usually because a newer graphic series came in or a width ran over. It isn't a quality problem. The deck is the same board it was at full price.

What is the best cheap skateboard deck for a beginner?

An 8.0" to 8.25" pro deck on sale is a solid first board. It's wide enough to stand on comfortably and narrow enough to learn flip tricks. Put it on mid-size trucks with 52mm to 54mm hard wheels and it works for street and park.

How often should you replace your skateboard deck?

Replace your deck when it loses its pop, the tail chips down, or it cracks. For someone skating most days, that's usually every few weeks to a couple of months. Casual skaters can ride one deck much longer.

Are sale skateboard wheels any different from full-price wheels?

No. Sale wheels are the same urethane and shapes as full price. They're usually marked down because of an older graphic or a size that ran over.

Can I return a sale skateboard deck?

No. All sale items at Garage Skateshop are final sale. Full-price items can be returned within 30 days of shipment if they're unused.

How fast do sale orders ship?

Garage Skateshop ships Monday through Friday from Orange County, California. Orders placed after 11:00 AM Pacific start processing the next business day.

Is there a sale on skate clothing and shoes too?

Yes. This page is decks and wheels. Marked-down tees, hoodies, pants and shoes are in the full sale.
