Mexico Skateboard Market Overview, 2028

In Mexico, skating is now seen as more of an activity than just a recreational outdoor sport. Parents encourage their kids to play sports because there are no fees or coaching costs involved. Over the years, there have been several new skateboard launches in the industry. During the forecast period, it is anticipated that the Mexican skateboard market will expand. The growth can be attributed to the country's rising disposable income and the number of people who enjoy extreme sports. Due to the growing popularity of electric skateboards among young people, the segment is anticipated to dominate the market in Mexico. This can be attributed to the increasing number of youngsters taking up skateboarding as a sport and the growing demand for cruiser boards and longboards. The market's growth can be attributed to several factors, including increased disposable income, changing lifestyles, and increased awareness of skating's health benefits. Additionally, the introduction of new skateboard designs and models contributes to market growth. Given that it has led to the creation of cutting-edge electrical skateboards with Artificial Intelligence, technological advancement can be a significant factor driving the Mexican market for electric skateboard motors (AI). The Mexican market for electric skateboard motors is seeing an increase in popularity of skateboards with connected features like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and infrared connections. When artificial intelligence is used in electric skateboard motors, riders will have better control over speed and handling in less time and with greater efficiency. The market for electric skateboard motors is becoming more and more appealing thanks to constant technological advancements.

According to the research report, "Mexico Skateboard Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to add USD 33.28 Million by the end of 2028. The growing popularity of skateboarding as a recreational activity, as well as the emergence of extreme sports, is expected to boost the Mexican skateboard industry. Furthermore, the rising use of skateboards in schools and colleges as part of physical education curricula is likely to fuel skateboard demand throughout the forecast period. Rapid technological advancements and a rise in disposable income have increased the demand for skateboards. The increasing number of skate parks and competitions is also driving the skateboard market ahead. The skateboarding fad in Mexico originated as a result of boredom during the COVID-19 lockdown, but it quickly spread over many parts of the country as one of the fastest-growing. Rising demand for electric skateboards and rapid technological advancements are some key factors expected to continue to drive market growth in the country. Rising demand for sporting activities among teenagers will boost product demand in the market. The product demand is fueled by the increasing demand for skating as a sport in many countries. Apart from using it as a source of fun, it also provides flexibility and a good physical shape to the body. Furthermore, the inclination towards fitness has resulted in increased outdoor sports activities, which will act as a key factor driving the market over the forecast period.

As per the World Bank, the population of Mexico was 126,705,138 in 2021, of which 61,856,137 were male and 64,849,001 were female. Of the total population, 31,616,904 are under the age of 14. The population with an age range of 15–64 is 84,782,496. The urban population is 102,651,435 and the rural population is 24,053,703. Mexico's GDP in 2021 was USD 1.27 trillion. The increasing youth population and the rising popularity of skateboarding among teenagers are major factors in the growth of the skateboard market in Mexico.

The demand for eco-friendly transportation modes has also been boosted by a rise in the tendency to reduce environmental pollution and government regulations for doing away with petroleum-based transportation and related products. Due to this, there is an increasing demand for electric skateboards, which in turn will propel the Mexican market for electric skateboard motors to expand over the ensuing years. However, the market for electric skateboard motors is likely to be constrained by their high cost as a result of using advanced technology. Another factor that could hurt the Mexican market for electric skateboard motors is the affordability of traditional skateboards in comparison to electric skateboards. The offline sector led the market in terms of distribution channels due to the massive presence of retail establishments across the country. Crooked Soul Skate, MX Skate, Faith Skate, OmniRoller, and OmniRoller Coapa are some Mexico skateboard retailers. Due to growing internet penetration, convenience, time savings, and other factors, the online category is expected to grow significantly during the projected period.

The growing popularity of electric skateboards in developed countries is expected to create lucrative opportunities during the forecast period. The introduction of skateboarding in different international tournaments like the Olympics is expected to increase popularity and generate new prospects for the market over the forecast period. When compared to electric skateboards, traditional skateboards are more inexpensive on the market. Furthermore, the use of sophisticated technology in electric skateboard motors comes at an additional cost. This is presumed to stymie the electric skateboard market. The absence of electric skateboard laws may have a detrimental effect on the market's growth. Legislators are concerned about the product's uncertainty and the lack of data on how these vehicles are used.

Covid-19 Impacts:
The coronavirus pandemic has placed tremendous pressure on businesses and sectors across Mexico. Various regulations had been put in place by governments to limit seizures. The contribution of these regulations has hurt the skateboarding industry. The market was harmed by the restrictions on public transportation and the disruption caused by the lockdown. Most of the sectors are not functioning properly due to the influence of COVID-19, which has harmed the overall market. However, an increasing focus on healthy lifestyles owing to the same pandemic is projected to boost the demand for skateboards during the upcoming timeframe.
