hi guys so this is not the first time i have had this dilemma, so my problem is that i cannot stick on the width of deck that i like, right now im on 26mm and love it but i cant get decent trucks and some wheels dont fit, also nose and tail slides are pretty hard since the area is small. I also for a while chopped and changed between 30mm and 32mm and enjoyed them both. The reason i would like to settle on a size is because i would like to buy a deck (expensive one tongue) and dont want to ditch it because i fall for another shape. has this ever happened to anyone and how can i overcome it.

p.s. i want to settle for 1 width and not chop and change

32mm is probably the way to go but at the end of the day its all down to preference. If at the moment you still dont know which is your preference, give it time.

Well, if you like 26mm the most, than maybe 30mm would be the best. But as James said, it's all about preference.

32-33 Is perfect for me or since u ride a 26 and like 32 get inbetween 26 and 32 get a 29mm or a 30.5mm and see how that works!

^^ woah stellar stuff!

I'd say go with a 28-9. Lil wider than a 26, but not as big and floppy as a 32+

I like 28s, I need to get another Finga Slim.

i also enjoy many widths of decks. At the moment, i use a 29 main but i think 29-30 is a good balanced width great for crazy mash ups of every style of skating. I am currently seeking a 50mm deck.
