Skateboard decks are usually between about 28 and about 33 centimeters (71 and 84 cm) long. A longboard is a skateboard having a longer deck. For longboards, decks are usually over 36 inches (91 cm) long.
  • each end of the deck 710 is slightly angled, as illustrated in Figure 5.

  • Each wheel is mounted on its axle using bearings (not shown).
  • Each bearing usually contains seven steel or ceramic ball bearings, although other configurations are used.
  • the wheels of a skateboard come in many different sizes and shapes. Larger diameters (55-85 millimeters) roll faster. Smaller diameters (48-54 millimeters) roll slower. Larger wheels are used in longboarding and downhill skateboarding. Sizes typically range from 65 millimeters to 100 millimeters.
