For first time buyers this is an important decision. If you're a shorty, usually from ages 7-12, we recommend a deck of 7.5" width. If you're a large fool, then go with an 8" width.

For the technical junkies, go with 7.5" for flip tricks. If your big into gaps and large ollies, go for the 8". For all around performance, 7.75" widths take care of most tricks. Basically, 8's stay stable in mid air, where 7.5's can easily rotate out of position. But it is a lot easier to kickflip a 7.5" than an 8".
