Top 10 Algae Scrapers

10. Atom Drop Deck

The Atom Drop Deck (about $87) has a full maple board with heat transferred graphics for a stylish look that won’t get rubbed off. Unique in its versatility, this model performs just as well cruising around town as it does bombing down a slope at high speed.

9. Krown Freestyle Elite

The entire top deck of the Krown Freestyle Elite (about $80) is coated with black grip tape, so you can put your feet in virtually any position without slipping. It also has attractive graphics on the underside, but note that the included wheels aren’t ideal for sliding.

8. White Wave

If you like boards that have a natural look, then you’ll appreciate the White Wave (around $109). It boasts a bamboo construction with drop-through trucks, and a symmetrical shape with small kicks. It comes with fast and durable ABEC 9 Hellion bearings and ultra-high rebound bushings.

7. Bomb Board Complete

The Bomb Board Complete (around $114) has a drop-down deck designed with a low center of gravity to give you good stability, better turning control, and an easier push off. Overall, it’s a good board for commuting, but isn’t great for areas with many obstacles.

6. Rimable Drop-Through

The Rimable Drop-Through (appx. $64) is a rugged value option for beginners who aren’t looking to make a massive financial commitment to riding. It has a tighter turning radius than many other drop-throughs, while still keeping a low deck height for easy pushing.

5. Atom Pin-Tail

With the stylish Atom Pin-Tail (about $71), you’ll always look your best. The classic shape allows for smooth, easy street riding on its slide-friendly wheels and genuine Navigator 50-degree reverse kingpin trucks. Plus, it can support heavier riders.

4. Sector 9 Fractal

The Sector 9 Fractal (around $174) comes with specially designed wheels and trucks that give unmatched control in sharp downhill carving action. It features a multi-ply maple board that is dropped down for easy pushing and pumping, making it great for long rides.

3. Quest Super Cruiser Artisan

The Quest Super Cruiser Artisan (around $60) has a multi-ply hardwood maple and bamboo deck that will turn heads as you cruise. It holds up well to tumbles and scrapes, and thanks to both its stability and value, it makes a good beginner board.

2. Ten Toes Emporium Zed

With a style all its own, the Ten Toes Emporium Zed (appx. $59) is a cruiser made from a gorgeous bamboo and maple hybrid. Designed in the skateboarding mecca of Los Angeles, it has a laid back quality that invites use. But don’t let the casual look fool you, because this deck flies.

1. Loaded Tan Tien Flex 2

The highly responsive Loaded Tan Tien Flex 2 (appx. $278) handles tight cornering with ease and offers smooth downhill runs. It comes equipped with premium Orangatang Stimulus wheels, and it sports eye-catching bottom decals and a modern design in several combinations.
