Correct. Buy wheels, bearing, trucks, and board separately. Board is not nearly as important as the other bits. The board is sized by the person and the kind of skating they do, i.e. where they skate. I use to skate a lot in the 70's. My HS year book has me doing a handstand down the hallway on my skateboard. I would find a good diversified skate supplier on-line and call them for some advice. I am sure that they can help you put together a package based on your budget.
