really depends on what kinda of board you get and how many layers and what size the board is. most boards hold alot of weight so i wouldnt be worried about it unless you weigh over 300 pounds

you should be fine if your under 200 lbs but if you want to be safe get an Almost 8-ply with resin they are built stronger so they dont break or an Almost with impact absorption those wont break but you should be fine i know large kids that skate and their boards dont break

A couple of hundred pounds, you should be fine.
If you're really that worried, try a longboard. They're made of thicker plywood.

If you're unsure, try focusing your weight on the wheels. That way, surely it won't break. And if you're still unsure, ask the pro skaters.

Must be quite a lot if American kids are skate boarding.
