    Default VKCOMMO's STANCED SKATEBOARD

    11/9/11

    So a mate of mine sent me a pic of a stanced skateboard the other day, and it got me thinking.. Here goes

    Tossed up on Facebook: WANTED: Skateboard, dont care about the condition, but I just want one.

    Got a reply shortly after from my cousin saying he has one he doesnt want, and if I come and pick it up its mine..

    I finally got around to going out there today and I picked it up and went back home..

    The second I came home, the trucks were off and it got a quick 400 grit to remove any flakey paint, and to roughen it up to make some paint stick..



    Then a quick wax and grease rub down and it was time to slap some paint on it.. Raided downstairs and found half a can of gloss black..



    The plan is to sometime before I finish school (finish on the 23rd of this month), take in the tricks and try to get some camber on it in metalwork, probably an oxy and a vice, then see where I can go after that.. the pic I was shown had the board cut where the trucks went, Im going to try to make it so I only have to slit it a bit where the wheels come out, but im going to play it by ear..


    Thats all for now, But ill keep you posted..

    The skate board was probably quicker than the bmw before you pulled it apart

    You don't need a clutch to change gears, just match engine RPM with road speed and it'll fall straight in...

    So, what exactly is a stanced skateboard??

    Agree'd Bart should have stayed...

    Probly only in a straight line as you need to use the trucks to turn the board, and being bent and under the board would do didly squat
    Ive still got like 10 of my skateboards from back in the day

    maybe I should make one lol

    you should actually take it for a ride down the street, or to a skatepark when your done.
    or to those cardinia dam speed humps.

    makes me want to get my old board out now.
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that

    Not sure, but by the looks of it you don't have a sense of humour, or a "light hearted" bone in your body...

    No one said you had to 'roll around on the floor laughing.'

    It just seems, the way you worded your post that you are a very serious person, that can't see the point in doing something just for shits and giggles. Thought I'd point that out.
