I recommend goin to your local shop and tryin out some of their used products. Take some used trucks, New bearings (ABEC 3-5 or Bones Reds;)), and wheels. Then buy a deck that feels comfortable to you. Always buy from a skateshop when it's available to you. My setup is like this:

Baker Echo Team Deck

Independent 139s (about a year now, but not much grinding)

Bones Reds Bearings (had them for about a year now)

Bones 100s wheels.

Also, try to get a pair of skateshoes, because they will not only grip the board better, but now you also have some shoes that are designed to last longer than other shoes one the grip tape.

You're in the wrong place buddy.  Go to either nintendo wii or Gamecube site and go to their pokemon thread I think.

Edit:  This is to the guy with the question about Jirachi on Wii and Gamecube sending it to the other games.

ok cool

Dang.  Oh well.  Does anyone know if they'll do the nintendo events for pokemon like how they did for the Tony hawk games?  That'd be cool to just download it off the internet and then play it.
