I'd say anything buy Powell, Blind of Spitfire are good. Depends on your local skate shop. Also in bearings, I'd go for Swiss, they are fast as heel.

I'll also say that the underside on his decks never look as good as your's does except when they're brand new lol.. he beats them up pretty good doing those tricks.

In fact, somebody please explain to me the point of saving broken decks lol.. he has a stack of broken decks in his closet that you would not believe. I try to throw them out and he says "no way! I'm saving those!" lol

anywho.. Dwreck - you're definately not too old to take up skateboarding.. my son has quite a few friends who are in their late twenties and early thirties who skate and they're really good!
It's just a thing kids do. I used to save them to. Kinda like a trophy on how many decks I could trash. Hell I even have a few around my house still. The real trophy is the broken boards, those are the best to keep.

My new boards would look good for about an hour after I got them.
