Penny Board

 

Penny Boards Built for Easy Cruising

The Penny board is the little plastic cruiser that got a whole generation rolling. Light, colourful and ready to ride straight away, it turns a flat footpath into a session. Grab one and just go.
 




Why a Penny Skateboard Just Works

Penny Skateboards nailed a simple idea. Take a tough plastic deck, bolt on smooth cruiser wheels, and make it small enough to stash in a backpack. The result is a board that beginners pick up fast and seasoned skaters keep around for quick rolls to the shop.

These are not big double-kick street decks. A Penny board is a compact plastic cruiser made for carving paths, bombing mellow hills and getting from A to B with a grin. The waffle-top deck gives proper grip without grip tape, so your feet stay locked in.

Key Features of a Penny Board

  • Durable plastic deck that shrugs off knocks and won't blow out
  • Smooth cruiser wheels for a butter-smooth ride on rough footpaths
  • Lightweight and compact so it slips into a bag or under your arm
  • Waffle-top grip that holds your feet without sticky grip tape
  • Loads of colours so you can match the board to your vibe

 

Picking Your Penny Size

The 22 inch is the original Penny. It is super portable, quick to turn and a favourite for groms and gift buyers. Step up to the 27 inch and you get a longer, more stable deck that suits taller riders and longer cruises. Both ride the same fun way, just at different lengths.

If you are brand new to skating, the Penny board is one of the easiest ways in. The low deck and forgiving wheels make balance simple, so you spend more time cruising and less time bailing.

 

More Fresh Drops & Skate Essentials

Once your Penny is sorted, round out the kit. Peep our cruiser completes for more plastic and timber options, or grab fresh cruiser wheels to keep the ride smooth. New riders should snag a helmet and a set of pads before the first session. Chasing something bigger? Check our completes and decks.
