What are the parts of a skateboard?

Deck: The deck is the flat, typically wooden or composite board that you stand on. It is usually the largest part of the skateboard and provides the platform for your feet. Decks come in various shapes and sizes, and the choice of deck can affect the skateboards performance.
Skate wheels: Skate wheels are the small, circular components that attach to the underside of a skateboard, roller skate, or inline skate. Skate wheels are usually made of durable materials such as polyurethane or plastic.
Trucks: Trucks are the metal T shaped components that are attached to the underside of the deck. They hold the wheels and allow the skateboard to turn. Trucks consist of several parts, including the hanger, baseplate, bushings, kingpin, and axle. The tightness of the trucks can be adjusted to influence how easily the skateboard turns.
Skateboards grips tape: Skateboard grip tape is a sandpaper like material that is applied to the top surface of a skateboard deck. Skateboard grip tape provides traction and grip for the riders feet, helping them maintain control of the board.
Skateboards cushions: Skateboard cushions are small rubber or urethane rings that fit inside skateboard trucks. You can buy skateboard cushions from Globe, Powerslide, Carver, Chaya, and Krf.
Skateboard bearings: Bearings are small, round components that fit inside the wheels and allow them to spin freely. These metal or ceramic pieces fit inside the wheels and allow them to spin smoothly. Choosing the right skateboard bearings can significantly affect your board´s performance.
Grip Tape: Grip tape is a sandpaper like adhesive material applied to the top of the skateboard deck. It provides traction for your feet, allowing you to control the board. Grip tape is usually black and has a rough texture.
Hardware: Hardware refers to the nuts and bolts used to secure the trucks to the deck. Skateboard hardware typically consists of eight bolts and nuts that hold the trucks in place. They can vary in length depending on the thickness of the deck.
Riser Pads optional: Riser pads are small plastic or rubber spacers that can be placed between the deck and the trucks. They are used to increase the height of the skateboard and reduce the risk of wheel bite wheels making contact with the deck during sharp turns.
Risers optional: Risers are additional components that can be added between the deck and trucks. They can be made of plastic or rubber and serve various purposes, including shock absorption and fine tuning the ride height and board performance.
Nose and Tail: The nose is the front end of the skateboard, and the tail is the rear end. They are often different shapes, with the tail typically being slightly shorter and steeper. These parts are important for balance and control, especially when performing tricks.
