Bought a Penny Board


I am sooooo excited.

I bought my Penny board from White and Black Trading. They are the official stockist for Penny boards based in Singapore & Malaysia. They also sell other outdoor equipment and gears as well.

This Penny board costs $120. White and Black Trading is having a sale now (I am not sure why but I guess they're trying to clear their stocks?) It's not for all the Penny boards, only for a few.

You might want to check out their website here: http://whiteandblacktrading.com

(I am not sponsored or paid to say anything on my blog alrights.)

Set-up of my Penny board:

  • 22 inches long x 6 inches wide
  • Orange deck
  • Yellow raw wheels
  • Black bolts
  • Original silver Penny truck
  • Yellow bushings (all Penny boards have yellow bushings)
  • ABEC 3 bearings (not ABEC 7 because this board is the older version of Penny)









The board is pretty heavy but I got used to it.

I also bought grip tape but I haven't put them on yet, I wanna try cruising around without grip tape first and then with grip tape, so I could review whether it is better to put grip tape or is it still the same without grip tape.






The grip tape cost $15. No sale for that! ;-)

You can make your own design using the grip tape, so no one will have the same Penny board design as you. They provided the template for you at the back, so you just have to draw out your design and cut it out and paste it! But I'm not going to do any design on mine because I want the full grip on my board. 

I'm gonna go cruising with my board now! Byeeeeeee.
