The skateboards covered by this standard are graded by performance criteria for different categories of body weight. This standard is not applicable for skateboards for use by a rider up to 20 kg. EN 71-1 is applicable for those. This standard does not apply to individual components. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 22768-1, General tolerances — Part 1: Tolerances for linear and angular dimensions without individual tolerance indications (ISO 2768-1:1989) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 skateboard fully assembled and useable sports equipment consisting of one deck on two trucks and wheels on which the rider can propel him/herself and which can be steered by shifting his/her body mass 3.2 mid-steering setting setting between the positions of the softest and hardest steering settings 3.3 softest steering setting setting achieved when for example an action bolt (Kingpin) is unscrewed so that the cushion is just relieved of any pressure from it 3.4 hardest steering setting setting achieved when for example an action bolt (Kingpin) is fully tightened so that the cushion is subjected to maximum pressure from it 4 Classification 4.1 Class A Skateboards intended for use by a rider of more than 20 kg up to 100 kg mass. 4.2 Class B Skateboards intended for use by a rider of more than 20 kg up to 50 kg.

The complete upper surface of the deck shall be equipped with an anti-slide surface. 5.2.2 When tested in accordance with 6.8, it shall not be possible to touch, with the test cylinder (see 6.8.2), any projection which has a length greater than 10 mm and less than 100 mm2 in area. 5.2.3 When the action bolt (kingpin) of the truck is fully tightened, no part of the action bolt shall be in con-tact with the underside of the deck. 5.2.4 If a part of the axles and means of securing the wheels shall project beyond the outer edge of the wheels than the axle and means of securing the wheels shall not project beyond the deck. All edges on the skateboard which can come into contact with parts of the body during normal use shall be rendered safe, or shaped so that injuries cannot occur. 5.2.5 The corners and edges of the deck shall be rounded off and free from burr and sharp or protruding edges. The outlines of the deck shall be rounded off with a minimum radius of 10 mm as shown in Figure 2.
