I just broke mine and...in half and it was just some cheap thing but it was okay.  So can anyone recommend me a board (with trucks and wheels included) i live in american. for a price idk nothing crazy i don't want to invest ~$150 in some wood and metal

 

A link to the board would be great!

I would just get a blank deck for like $20, they're pretty much equivalent to branded boards.

Then put some independents on and reasonably priced bearings, and you're good. No need for anything fancy. Expect to pay ~$80-$100

If you want a Longboard, I have read that this is the best place to get them for under $100

For normal skateboards, I'm not sure where to look

My old setup (Built with parts though)

Warp U SKB truckset.

And a sweet 8" board with some reasonably priced griptape.

 

Warp and sweet are usually pretty cheap but functional brands.
