What is the optimal deck height for a kick scooter?

A low deck height greatly enhances the riding experience, but if the ground clearance (space under the deck) is too low, it can be problematic on uneven surfaces. The ideal deck height should be no higher than 7-8cm (3inch), while the ground clearance should be at least 4-5cm (2inch). Boardy scooters have one of the lowest deck heights among kick scooters, without sacrificing ground clearance. This balance is achieved through Boardy’s self-supporting flexible wooden frame design, which eliminates the need for a bulky metal frame, keeping the deck thickness to just 19mm underfoot.
