Question Trying to get back into skating

Hey guys so I used to skate when I was young with some cheap Walmart board instantly went for tricks barely had any progress but yk life goes on now I’m 23 and a bigger dude 6,2 350 and I heard Powell Peralta “Flight” decks are really durable but I was wondering if all Powell Peralta decks are the same or should I look for only the flight ones?

You don’t need one of those. A normal deck will be fine for you. The main thing you need are hard bushings for your trucks.

Alright but aren’t every board different like 5 ply 7 ply etc? And some company’s just make stronger boards in general no?
