If you are still using plastic fingerboards like TechDeck, you might want to upgrade to a wooden deck. I started using Tech Decks that are made of plastic, but when I experienced what it’s like to use a wooden fingerboard, I started collecting and using different fingerboard deck made of wood.
Plastic decks like those in TechDecks are easy to find, they don’t break easily and comes in different forms and graphic designs. Plastic fingerboards are cheaper too but it’s more difficult to perform tricks using plastic decks.
A wooden deck is made of veneer wood with average of 5 plies depending on its thickness. Fingerboard deck made of wood looks and feels authentic. It gives more pop compared to plastic decks. The downside is it is more expensive than plastic and not as durable.
I recommend using plastic decks for beginners. But as you progress and land more tricks, you might want to consider using wooden fingerboards.
i agree 100% i have alot of plastic decks but when i used a wooden deck they now sit on my shelf
