Kids Skateboards

Of course! On decathlon.com.gr you will find an excellent selection of kids' skateboards, specially designed for every stage of development and skill level. Choose from ultra-stable skateboards for young athletes taking their first steps and learning to balance, to complete models for older kids and teenagers who want to learn their first tricks at the skatepark.

The right skateboard for a child depends on their age and experience level. For kids aged 3 to 7 who are just discovering the sport, models from the "Play" collection are ideal, as they feature a wider wheelbase and softer wheels for maximum stability and smooth rolling.
For children aged 8 and up who have mastered the basics of balancing, classic mid-level skateboards are suitable, featuring better bearings and a durable maple wood deck, which allows them to turn with greater precision and try jumps.

In skateboarding, the size of the deck is chosen based on its width (measured in inches) relative to the child's height and shoe size, so they can control it correctly.
Generally, for young children up to 1.20m tall, mini decks with a width of 7" to 7.3" are preferred; for kids between 1.20m and 1.50m tall, a width of 7.5" to 7.75" is ideal; while for teenagers and children over 1.50m, the universal standard is decks of 8" and above.

Yes, skateboarding is completely safe for young ages, provided it is done with a skateboard suitable for their age and, above all, with the correct protective gear. Kids' skateboards are designed with a special low center-of-gravity geometry to minimize falls. However, since losing balance is a part of learning, it is an absolute rule that the child must always wear a helmet as well as a full set of pads—such as wrist guards, knee pads, and elbow pads—to enjoy the activity with total safety.

A quality Oxelo kids' skateboard stands out due to the following technical characteristics:
Appropriate wheel hardness: It features softer wheels that absorb vibrations and offer better grip.
Adapted Trucks: The metal axles (trucks) are equipped with softer bushings, so the skateboard turns much more easily under a child's light body weight.
Durable and safe deck: It is constructed from layers of quality wood or reinforced plastic, covered on top with non-slip griptape that keeps the child's feet stable on the board while moving.
