"Pimp my skateboard"

First of all I removed all the old paint with a sandpaper http://housut.kuvat.fi/kuvat/falas2.jpg/full Then I marked a line how to shape the nose. http://housut.kuvat.fi/kuvat/falas3.jpg/full Then I removed the extra wood with ...

Day 1: 2009-08-05 This week I've rebuilt my longboard press that I built a couple of months ago. Back then I wasn't satisfied with the result so now I try again. Down in the basement there's 3 layers of 3 mm plywood glued together in it and waiting for me to cut a nice shape of it. Day 2: 2009-08-06 ...

Lou's trucks

---

Prologue Well, there are less people who build trucks than there are people who build boards. And I didn't get much attention as a little child you know, so I just had to try and design a couple of trucks, just to get a slight feel of beeing unique. No seriously now, that wasn't the case, but I've ...

Sliding gloves

---

I'll try my best and write this thread in English. Instead of buying a pair of slide gloves I borrow the punks DIY-culture for a couple of hours. They end up really cheap too, and the satisfaction of making something with your own hands comes for free. * 1 pair of welding gloves from Clas Ohlson ...

After 30 years it's finally forfilling it's purpose

Cheers , After the purchase of my santa cruz reissue, I found it a bit to thick and heavy, so I wanted something smaller and lighter. I search all over to find my dream board, but with no luck. So I told a friend of mine about this, and he happened to know a guy who's father used to sell these kind ...

Longboard winter/spring 09

---

Good day! After skating for 3-4 years with "no balls" to do tricks, I wanted to just carve some street. My brother bought himself a longboard and let me try it. I loved the nice turns and the speed of longboarding. But since I´m washing cars, and mowing to make a little money, I can´t afford one. So ...

Okis

Hey, this is my projekt. It started around two years ago when I had an idea, to make my own longboard. I already owned one but it didn't fit in my closet in school. And to carry the board all day long wasn't so funny. The funny thing with my boards was that my friends loved them. So right now I've ...
