    Dude $30+ for these boards are way too expensive. It'd be a waste of amazingly fine Canadian maple wood if you just hung it on a wall. These are meant to be on the streets, free in the wild. If you haven't bought it yet and live in Melbourne, PM me. I've got spare boards to give away for free. Boards meant for decoration.

  This is only a deal if you can pair it with a cheap private health insurance plan and a good income protection insurance plan really. Otherwise no deal IMO :-P

  Hey altomic, for the uninitiated (me) are you suggesting the combo of the PlanB board plus the Slimeballs wheels makes for a good entry level setup?

    not suggesting that.

    skateboard collectors who enjoy OG setups would go for the slimeballs.

    the planB complete would be a good setup for an entry level.

    are you planning to do tricks or just cruising?

    if you're going to pop those slimeballs to cruise on a regular deck setup, you'll need to add about 1 inch risers and 1.5-1.75 inch bolts for the trucks to avoid wheel bite.

      You read my mind I was just typing this in response to Altomic:

      In your opinion is it worth pairing the Slimeballs with the PlanB board to learn balance and then swap back to the original wheels to learn tricks once competent? Or is it just better to buy a longboard/cruiser initially?

      I was just looking to cruise initially. I need to learn to balance first because I haven't been on a skateboard since my primary school days, when I fell on my face and never skateboarded again.

      It seems like it would be more involved to swap the wheels than I thought. Would you normally put cruising wheels on a regular deck setup?

        it can take some time but it's really easy and worth it as you know what parts are going onto your board. it isn't exactly a "normal" thing as many people who just want to cruise go and buy Penny boards or longboards. there, you'll get the big, squishy wheels as standard. i know globe puts out a few standard deck + cruiser wheels completes but they don't use the soft 78a wheels.

        there's also an advantage to having that regular deck even if you don't use the nose/tail for tricks. having that kicked tail is useful for making that quick turn to avoid a stick or to lift the board up a bit while you're riding to drop off a kerb.

        complete setups, even by proper skateboard brands, still use average quality parts. while creature/indy make the best quality bolts but if you're looking for longer bolts more commonly used in longboarding, khiro and sector nine bolts are good choices.

        soft risers help give a softer ride (they're like shockies for your board). i got a bunch of sector 9 1/4 inchers from surfstitch a few years back. you can stack them, i just go for one big one ;)

        and depending on your budget, i'd get the best bearings you can afford. for a beginner, learning to balance is hard enough without cheap/nasty bearings disrupting the experience. been skating on bones swiss l2's for nearly 2 years now and haven't had to properly clean them aside from wiping off the dust after every session. bones reds are a good budget choice. don't be fooled by gimmicky packaging and claims about titanium or ceramic balls. you won't need ceramic unless you do a lot of downhill skating.

        one last thing: bushings. the default trucks you get on any complete will be rubbish. get bones hardcore bushings and your ride with feel a lot better. which hardness to get is a personal preference so start with soft bushings and go up in hardness as your skill progresses.

        I had already noted that Bones are the gold standard of bearings; it's good to have some recommendations on hardware, so thanks for the detailed reply.

        It sounds like I might be better off building my own deck… one day.

        @Master Bates: no worries :)
        since boardshop.com.au closed down in July, i get most of my parts for skatewarehouse.com, and to a lesser extent, tactics.com. the latter stock more longboard/cruiser stuff like the longer bolts, more bushing options and bigger cruiser wheel (78a durometer) selection.

        with black friday sales coming up next month, it'll be a good time to get a good deal on parts.
