Park Scooter Decks

Park decks are typically 4.5–5.0 inches wide with shorter lengths around 19–20 inches. This compact size allows easier flips, whips and spins. Lightweight construction, often using extruded aluminium, helps riders perform high‑air tricks with less effort.

Street decks are wider (5.0–6.0 inches) with boxed ends for grinding rails and ledges. Park decks have angled dropouts and rounded edges to prevent catching during tricks. Street riders prioritise stability and grind surface, while park riders prioritise weight and responsiveness.

Most park decks use 6061‑T6 aluminium for a balance of weight and strength. Some incorporate hydroformed tubing or hollow sections to remove material without reducing structural integrity.

Consider your height and riding style. Smaller riders and those who focus on park tricks may prefer shorter decks (19–19.5 inches), while taller riders might opt for longer decks up to 20.5 inches for added foot space.

Park decks often feature steeper headtube angles (around 83–84 degrees) to facilitate faster bar spins and whips. This geometry makes the deck more responsive during rotational tricks.

Yes. Despite their lightweight construction, reputable brands reinforce stress points. However, park decks are not built to handle heavy street grinds and may wear out faster if used primarily on rough surfaces.

They can, but they may not last as long if used for heavy grinding. Street decks offer more stability and grind surface for rails and ledges. Park decks are best reserved for skateparks and smooth surfaces.

Absolutely. You can add your preferred wheels, forks and bars. Just ensure that the deck’s headtube and brake are compatible with the components you choose.
