| My friend might be getting into fingerboarding and I want to help him get the best possible complete for a reasonable price. He wants a better board than a TechDeck. Any good suggestions? |

| The next set up to get after a tech deck is a china complete off of eBay. Its usually $15 for a wooden china deck, china trucks, and some china bearing wheels. |

www.brokenknucklefingerboards.com That's where I got mine  (it's the same company) www.roswellsskateboards.comor you can buy a deck from Ambition FB (but that may be too wide) and then just buy china trucks/wheels on the internet. |

Shit dude, I forgot about Frost Completes!! Get one of those for sure. Definitely the way to go. Amazing decks, and same price as BKFs.  |

He doesn't own any kind of fingerboards, he just tried my boards few times and got addicted, so he needs all new equipment. |

| The old buy a deck from the banner and the fingersized setup kit is gone now  Buy some china trucks, they're really cheap, get bollie or other cheap wheels and some decks found in the banner |

| Thanks for good suggestions, everyone, we decided to buy a Frost complete! Not many places offer that cheap completes with great decks!
Maybe this thread could be used for posting more cheap setups? |
