DESCRIPTION
The Fade Red/Black is a clean, understated setup for riders who would rather let the wood do the talking. The maple deck is stained in a red to black gradient rather than printed, so the grain shows through and every board is slightly different. At 8.0 inches wide it is the best all-round size for teenagers and new full-size riders. Part of the Venom My First Skateboard range. Fully built, grip tape applied, ready to ride.
Best for: teen and adult beginners who want a simple, classic-looking board in the most versatile width.
Key features

Size and fit: 8.0 inches is the neutral starting point for most teenagers and new riders. Once you have ridden it, you will know whether you want to go narrower for flip tricks or wider for cruising and park riding.
Good to know: Because the finish is a wood stain rather than a print, the grain shows through and the exact tone varies slightly from board to board. A helmet and pads are strongly recommended for beginners. Falls are part of learning, and protection helps riders practise with more confidence. Always ride in a safe area away from traffic.
