Good Skateboard recommendation for 8 year old?

[A Salt Weapon]

I got my 9 yr old (who had never skated at the time) one for Christmas last year, I went in to the local skate shop and answered questions about skate level, size, weight etc. How much I wanted to spend on it and then we picked out all the components that would suit him, they put the whole thing together on site and I probably spent about $250 or so. Which is a bit more than I wanted but it looks pretty badass and decent quality.
That was last year and he still uses it when we don’t have 3’ of snow on the ground.
