Skateboard Holder | A Must-Have Skateboard Accessory | Gifts for Skateboarders | Display Mount & Stakeboard Storage Solution

As a skateboard enthusiast, I own several different skateboards, from vert & street boards to cruisers & longboards. I’ve always been curious about these skateboard stands, so I purchased the three most popular on Amazon, and put them to the test. It’s often very difficult to tell about the physical characteristics from a small picture on your computer or phone. So, I purchased the Parking Block Skateboard Stand, the Hikeen Skateboard Holder, and the Origami Skateboard Stand.1. Packaging (see images): the Parking Block came with most minimal/eco-friendly packaging, a simple cardstock label the wraps around the product. The Hikeen came in a cardboard box. And the Origami came in a plastic bag - and required assembly. Once out of the packaging and set up, I was surprised to see how small the Hikeen and Origami stands were.2. First Use - Hard Floor (see images): for this test I used one of my cruiser boards, as it has really standard geometry. The Hikeen was dwarfed by the board and took some precision to get it stay without tipping to one side. It’s made of hard plastic which slid around on the hard floor. Also, the angle at which the board sits made me a little uncomfortable, as it was near vertical, and felt tippy. The Parking Block dropped right in and stayed secure. It’s much larger than the others and therefor has the widest stance. Its angle seemed to tip forward slightly, over the storage area, making it feel really stable. (*Also note that the Parking Block has rubber grip strips on the contact surface, as well as on the four feet – making the board feel extra secure). The Origami also required a little more aim to get it to sit in the stand. I noticed a little flex in the plastic when inserting the board.3. Use on Carpeting (see images): The Hikeen was very unstable on the medium shag carpet – it took quite some skill to get it stay up. It can be done, but I felt like any vibration could easily tip it over. The Parking Block was the most stable, and there was very little difference in how it performed as compared to the hard floor surface. The Origami stand was somewhat stable on carpet, but again, the inherent flex of the material did not give me confidence upon insertion.4. Storage (see images): The Hikeen has a small storage area on it, which could only hold two street wheels. The Parking Block had the largest storage area of all three, and could a full set of wheels, plus a skate tool and more. The Origami had no storage.5. Conclusion: I guess it’s true what they say - you get what you pay for. My first pick is the Parking Block Skateboard Stand. While it is the most expensive - it is the largest, and therefore the most stable. It has other features too that make it quite compelling, such as a large storage area and the rubber feet and grip strips. According to their listing, they also offer 2-Packs and 3-Packs at a discount. The Hikeen comes in second place, as it seems to be a smaller copy of the Parking Block, but smaller, and with less storage. In third place, is the Origami which required assembly, felt flexy and offers no storage. I hope this helps anyone interested in purchasing these stands!

Sturdy and arrived in time for Christmas

I have one holding my son's skateboard forever by my front door. This would've been great to have back when he was here and skating every day. Keeps your walls clean but still grab and go. I bought these to hand out in memory of him on his Birthday this year at our city skate park along with cold sodas and Doritos.Could've been packaged better. They arrived in two boxes just thrown in with a few strips of bubble wrap. They could have all fit in the larger of the two boxes without so much crashing around in the box. Goes to show how sturdy they are, no harm done. If I could afford it I'd give out a lot more in his memory. This is his urn we made from his last boards he broke. Don't do drugs, he was poisoned with fentanyl.

My Grandson is 18 & a border. He loves it would buy again.

The media could not be loaded. Great to get skateboards off the floor. Good quality plastic for the price. Light weight and versatile for multiple sizes and styles of boards. Space to store tools or addition wheels (not included)

Definitely sturdy, has weight to it. I’m using it to store my cruiser and it fits perfectly. Storage in the back is a perk and is hidden when the skateboard is on the block. Looks pretty durable but only time will tell and I’d say it’s a little pricey, but worth it when you compare to the alternatives. I like being able to move it around the room rather than having it stuck in one place, like a wall hanger. Would purchase again or for a friend. Looks cool displaying the board when not in use.

I bought these because I had been living just kind of stacking boards and decks on their side. I had to kind of shuffle things around to find what I wanted. I got tired of it. Then I put a surf adapter on my longboard and got a trick deck that might stay art, might go to the park. I didn’t want to put pressure on one side of the adapter because it has springs and I’m not sure it’s good for the components. So now the longboard has a home out of the way on one block. The popsicle deck fits easily on top of a standard IKEA billy bookcase for display when on its side. Without trucks you can face the artwork outward. This would be great in a garage setting if you have shelves and want vertical storage. This is a great product if you want things to have a cleaner feel and look great.
