Skateboards Skateboards are sport equipment used for the activity of skateboarding. A skateboard consists of a specially designed maple wood board combined with a polyurethane coating in order to have smoother slides and stronger durability . Most skateboards are-made with 7 plies of this wood. Many skateboards exist with exotic or alternative constructions. Traditional complete skateboards consist of the deck (often with grip tape applied on top to enhance traction), trucks (with urethane bushings), wheels (with sealed bearings), nuts, and bolts to fasten the truck and wheel assembly to the bottom of the deck. Recently, electric skateboards have appeared. These no longer require the propelling of the skateboard by means of the feet; rather an eclectic motor propels the board, fed by an electric battery. The board types depend largely upon its desired function. The two common types of skateboards are the longboard and the short board. Longboards are the type of skateboards with longer wheelbases (over 33 inches long) and larger, softer wheels. Short boards are the type of skateboards which commonly have a rectangular shape kick tail at the back and a rounded nose in the front. They are usually less than 34 inches long. Besides, longboards are usually faster and are mostly used for cruising and racing, while short boards are mostly used for doing tricks. How do you compare paragraphs 2 and 3 in terms of the aim?
