Buying Fingerboards Online in Australia: What to Know
Australia has a small but active fingerboard scene — Radical Fingerboards has flown the flag for years — but almost no pro-level gear is stocked in mainstream Australian skate shops, so nearly everyone in the AU scene orders online. Here is what to check before you order: deck width in mm, truck matching, whether wheels have real bearings, and what shipping actually costs to an Australian address.

What the AU market actually stocks
Walk into a general skate shop in Australia and you will find Tech Decks and maybe a generic ramp or two. The pro scene — wooden completes, metal trucks, bearing wheels, real park pieces — lives almost entirely in specialist online stores. That is not an AU gap; it is how the hobby works everywhere outside a handful of cities in the US and Europe.
For Australian riders that means two checks before any order: the parts spec (wooden deck, metal trucks, bearing wheels) and the shipping promise. Everything at Fingerboard Lab ships with tracking in 7-14 business days with prices in USD and free shipping over $50, which most park kits clear on their own.
Sizing for AU riders — no different, but check it
The scene standard is the same worldwide: 34mm is the all-rounder, 32mm flips faster, 36mm plants wider. Australian riders on the r/Fingerboards scene run the same widths as the US and EU, so any sizing guide applies as-is.
The AU-specific advantage is being the local option: Fingerboard Lab is based in Melbourne, which means support in your timezone and a returns process that does not involve international postage.
