Hi everyone.

I am 34 and live in PA. I have an old tech deck that I just started using again. I want to upgrade a little bit. I don't want to spend more than $30US for a complete.

I have been looking at Broken Knuckle. I can get a deck, the tunes trucked with bigger kingpin, tape and CNC bearing wheels today for around $20 with the Black Friday discount.

Will this deck help me improve?( i don't like tech deck I have now). Or will I be wasting money?

I need opinions on completes in my price range

Thanks
Shawn

My TD is only 25mm wide. I think I would like the wider deck better. Are BK boards bad?

broken knuckle is china, any company in the banner is sick, i would personally go for a frost complete because you get a super amazing deck for cheap, and you can upgrade the trucks and wheels over time

anything but decks and wheels from china are ok. I would suggest any of the companys in the banner up above. when you buy a deck you can go to ebay and get some trucks and wheels for cheap I would suggest cnc china wheels. happy

So broken knuckle is not good? I looked through the ads in the banner but none seemed to offer completes. What are your recommendations. Is broken knuckle worse than a ten year old Tech Deck with crappy trucks and plastic wheels?

I appreciate your help

That's basically what I was wondering. I'm gonna get a BK and then upgrade it over time. Thanks for all the help guys!

BKF is the same thing. They're all china but go with BKF if you really want to get something from them since BKF is a lot cheaper.

If you don't go with a frost complete over a bk setup, you're gonna regret it. That's all imma say.

Agreed, china decks are shit, period. 

When you can get what can be called a "pro" level deck, like a frost, for just a couple bucks more, and still under $30 you would be silly fucking stupid not to.

A Frost complete is still china wheels, which is sorta bad for the scene aswell..

You should get a deck from any well respected company. Check the banner, check the suggestions people give you.

Then you need a pair of trucks. China trucks, unfortunately, since every fingerboarder-made truck is hella expensive. You could also try and get 32/33mm trucks from a TD longboard.


As for the wheels, you could just use the ones from your Tech Deck, and save money for som proper wheels. Grand wheels are really nice, and not too pricy.
