The weight and size of skate components.

I'm interested in the differences between the boards I've owned and why they were good at the time.

I do some freestyle on my all-purpose board - I don't call it a street board because I don't really skate street.
The deck is a Union blank, 7" wide by 33 long.
The wheels are Powell mini logo 2, 51mm, 101a.
The trucks are Thunder
The board is 2308g in total.

I now have a second setup
wheels M-L
52mm-mini S-3 logo 99-A
216g for 4, 53-54g each
Trucks: Indy 139, stage 9's
350g = 700g per pair
Deck: Southstar blank 8" wide, 1328g
Southstar 1" bolts
ABEC3 bearings
Complete weight:2423g
