Where Can I Get a Tech Deck?

Using a Tech Deck is similar to using a skateboard, but you use your fingers instead of your feet. Tech Decks are just under 4 inches long and are used to perform tricks and runs just like an actual skateboarder would. Tech Deck's can be found in several online sites and offline in packs that match your needs.
  1. Online

    • Websites such as Amazon.com, ToyWiz, and Atamaii offer new and older Tech Decks in individual decks or packs of two, three or four. The sites also offer accessories such as wheels, tools, and skateparks. The advantage to shopping this way is it's possible to find older decks that may no longer be available in stores.

    Stores

    • Tech Decks are available at most toy retailers such as Toys R Us and KB Toy Store as well as big box retailers such as Target, Wal-Mart, and Meijer. They are normally stocked near toy cars and trucks.

    Custom

    • Most retailers sell complete Tech Decks as a unit, but you should be able to find decks, wheels, trucks, stickers and grip tape as separate items. Those items can then be combined to create a customized Tech Deck.

    Accessories

    • Tech Deck skateparks which feature ramps, rails, and stairs to trick off of are also available. Tech Deck Dudes, miniature "skaters" who ride the decks, can be bought along with specialized decks for the Dudes. Handboards are another popular accessory. Tech Deck handboards are about three times the size of a standard Tech Deck and are controlled with your palm.

    Pricing

    • As of May, 2010, the average price for a set of two Tech Decks is $7. These sets contain two decks with no other accessories. A single Tech Deck with an additional set of wheels and stickers averages $10. A set of four decks cost $12, and two decks and a small ramp were available for $13. If you trick hard and break decks often, the four pack deal is best for you. Someone new to the hobby should get one or two decks to train with before moving on to new decks.
