FAQs

Ookkie Skateboard

The child handle provides added stability and control for the child, making it easier for them to maintain balance and learn the basics of skateboarding.

It allows for a parent or guardian to assist the child while they are learning, providing added safety and peace of mind.

We have designed the Ookkie for an average age range of 2-6 years old and we recommended a rider weight of up to 20kg.

We all know how quickly the back of the car fills up, so we designed the Ookkie to be easily collapsible. With the quick push of a button at the base of the board, you can break the board down into its 3 main components to fit nicely. Perfect to take down to the park, beach or on longer holidays!

The Ookkie is easily manoeuvrable without compromising on stability. Some parents assist their little ones in steering when first learning, however, as the rider develops confidence, they can begin to change direction by leaning. The front truck is easily adjustable, to be either tightened (for a more stable ride) or loosened to allow the rider more control.

If you're unsure about whether the board is right for you, just take a look at our hundreds of reviews. Children of all ages, shapes and sizes have found their Ookkie Skateboard learning experience to be a successful and rewarding one. We're incredibly proud of the diverse range of families that have enjoyed the Ookkie Skateboard thus far, and are extremely confident that your experience will be positive too!
