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 very happy(it's the same company)
www.roswellsskateboards.com
or you can buy a deck from Ambition FB (but that may be too wide) and then just buy china trucks/wheels on the internet.

Don't buy china.. Just upgrade his tech deck with a nice deck from whatever company he likes.

Get a Pure! Amazing decks for a great price.

Frost complete. Only 18 bucks. You can't go wrong with it. Has all the things he'll need to start fingerboarding.

FROST Fingerboards http://www.frostfbs.com/FrostFingerboards/Home.html
OG decks http://www.ogdecks.bigcartel.com/
bolth legit decks for low cost
like Ryan said shoot them a message and see what they can do!

OG decks are more aggressive convave some beginners might dig that more I know I did and I still like hardcore concave. Mellow is fun but I like the feeling of high kicks.

I think he means spend the money one great set up rather then 5 china completes.

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?

Hey Gunner I have a friend who wants to step his game up from a china to a better deck and I told him about you and he was wondering if they are still 7$
