Flip Skateboards Gate Logo Blue Complete 7.87"

$150.00

The Flip Skateboards Gate Logo Blue Complete 7.87" is a professional-quality, ready-to-ride setup built for skaters who want a responsive board for street, park, pool, or vert.

 

Made with a 100% North American maple deck, medium concave, and a 14" wheelbase, this complete combines durability with a quick, maneuverable feel. The 7.87" width gives skaters a little more platform than a traditional 7.75" deck while still staying narrow enough for responsive board control, ollies, kickflips, manuals, and technical skating.

 

WHO DOES THIS BOARD FIT?

 

Using skateboard manufacturer and Create-A-Skate founder Paul “Professor” Schmitt’s wheelbase sizing approach, a 14" wheelbase is a good starting point for riders approximately 5'3" or taller.

 

Wheelbase can be just as important as deck width when choosing a skateboard. It is the distance between the front and rear truck mounting points and helps determine how the board fits the rider’s natural stance.

 

A 14" wheelbase creates a relatively compact, responsive platform that can make turning, popping the board, and moving it underfoot feel quicker. For riders in this general height range, it can also provide a more proportionate stance than choosing a board based only on width.

 

Height is a helpful starting point rather than a strict rule. Leg length, shoe size, skating style, terrain, experience, and personal preference can all affect what board feels best.

The Flip Gate Logo Blue Complete comes factory assembled with trucks, wheels, bearings, hardware, and grip tape, so it is ready to skate straight out of the box.

BEST FOR

A great choice for skaters who want a responsive, slightly narrower setup for street and skatepark skating. The 7.87" width offers a nice middle ground between a 7.75" and 8.0" deck, while the 14" wheelbase keeps the setup compact and maneuverable.

For riders around 5'3" to 5'8", this can be an especially good option when looking for a skateboard with proportions that better match their stance rather than simply choosing a board based on deck width.
 

With its classic Flip Gate Logo, North American maple construction, and complete ready-to-skate setup, this is a solid choice for beginner through experienced skaters looking for a dependable everyday board.
