>>1891070I’m 40 and just started skating again with my 9yo. Didn’t skate since I was 14.
You’ll be fine.
Don’t buy cheap shit. Theyre heavy, trucks are shit (turning difficult or inconsistent) and the wheels will be hard af and a shit ride.
Just go to a skate shop and get a complete board at whatever seems to be the most common price bracket.
Don’t spend silly money on bearings. Any engineering shop will stock them, and know them as skate bearings. Even SKS are half the price or less compared to skate branded ones, and likely better.
Wear a helmet that protects the BACK of your head. You’re most likely to fall backwards.
Have fun!
