Even experienced riders can't keep their decks pristine. Actually, it seems like the better I get, the easier my board gets beat up. Gotta get used to it. If you really want to keep it clean, get a lesson on a rental deck. With a good lesson and a modicum of competency, you oughta be able to get control of your deck in a day.
