Longboard

Totally rad dude.

Very nice! I wouldn’t want to get spiked by that sharp end though.

25 mph…Not me even when I was your age. Great looking board. Have fun, but please be careful.

Steve,

This is a nice board and you did a wonderful job with it.

But I think that I will watch from the shore. :)

Thanks for the post.

Nice board … the old lady made me promise not to buy another board after some lady put me on her hood and ran over my board last summer (she didn’t even stop after she hit me) ... think I just found my solution! lol

sweeeeeeet….I wanna make one…that is nasty bra!!!! when I was in middle school i made a board for my best bud…he still talks about it…until i saw your project…i forgot about that board (middle school was 25 years ago) ...would love to see the utube video link you saw that gave you the idea….

Nice looking board. You found a way to combine two hobbies into one: very nice!

Nice. I own two of those but never thought to try to make one. Excellent idea! Any chance did you try to make it concaved using a sander or something like that? How bouncy is it (the store-bought ones I own are really bouncy and wobble around, giving a nice feeling during motion)?

Nifty idea!

Man these things sure have come a long way since “Jan & Dean’s” sang the song “Sidewalk Surfing”..... I think my age is showing. Anyone remember those narrow steel wheels?

Nice job on your board “Dude”.

my first board was a hand me down with steel wheels way back in the day … the board was just big enough for my mom to use it as a paddle … so I put it with those damn paddle balls that everyone used to give you for easter … in the trash … now I remember why I like big old heavy long boards so much … well, that and the fact I’m fat and out of shape! lol

Looks like fun, until you hit something doing 25mph. Nice board. Grab your board lets go sidewalk surfing….... I still remember mike

Very nice! I made one with 2 layers of 5-ply laminated together, but still need to perfect that process. It delaminated after some rough riding. I will try to get pics posted of the process I used to create mine. Your board looks like it will take years of riding without fail. Nice work.
