A $1500 computer is objectively better than a $1000 computer.
Can't really say that so much about a $50 piece of wood and a $500 piece of wood?
well there are many things that differ a walmart skateboard from a 250$ skateboard, first off the loving type of wood. if you get shiity ass wood of course as soon as you pop a few kickflips it will break thats why high quality stuff is like oak or maple. second the type of trucks you got. your trucks are the stuff holding your wheals to the board, you gotta have reliable trucks for high speads so you dont wabbl eout and bust ass. next you want some rad bearings. the bearing are for speed and they go off this apec system the higher the apec the faster they go. next you need some wheels, your wheels are your traction , your traction is whether you bust ass or not. you want some more expensive but reliable wheels not some cheep ass stuff that will wear out in 4 miles. and your grip. grip is probably the cheapest of all of this stuff becuase its basically sand paper. but its not sand paper exactly, there are different kinds of grips some for popping some tricks faster and some fore snagging onto your shoes and keeping you on the board. now the kind of deck you got is a big loving deal. if you get something like a longboard your meant to go faster and drift longer. i can go on and on and on for paragraphs about how the differance of a 20$ skateboard and a 500$ skateboard would be but i think you get the general idea about it now homie.
