In short, No.
In the top tier of skateboards they are almost identical. Spitfire, Real, Antihero, Krooked are all made by the same people, so the wood is exactly the same. Get a real board from a real skate shop (not a generic sports store in the mall, or god forbid Walmart) and you will do fine. The major difference between skateboard brands is the graphics on the deck. That's it.
yes
Not necessarily its more a personal preference. the longer you skateboard the better you get to know how thick, how wide, and what material you like your skateboards to be.
Their not. Their about the same. Element and Enjoi are my top favs.
Yeah Zero has all of that, its better
No way. Zero and Mystery (same company) are phenomenal decks, and i'd put them up against any other brand. - Fauxreal20
its not the skateboard it it the trucks,bearings,and wheels but name brand boards have better pop and dont break as easy
yes
for price, yes*. for durability, no*. speed depends on what bearings you have *not by much
****Answer**** Defiantly Almost but Alien Workshop is better then both. =D
yes I have a Plan B skateboard and it is very good! f!@# off they are like zero have way better concave than plan B
No they are not!!! Neither of them are good!!! Go with an almost double impact!!!! Best REEEE in the world!
rubber wheels are much better. They are smoother, and newer than steel wheel skateboards. Steel wheel skateboards are old. They were around a long time ago.
