READ BELOW FOR DETAILS. This tutorial is really intended for very avid skaters who are sponsored by shops or better. At a beginner level it's very difficult to flip a board consistently the same every time, so they may not notice the feel of a balanced board. Advanced skaters can feel when a board is not flipping right and can spend hours or days trying to get a trick on video. Pro's can notice differences in decks right away, but are better at adjusting to new decks, but still deal with the frustrations of bad flips. Good, even flips are extremely important during competitions, when each trick has to be landed. Balancing a board evens out the weight eliminating bad flipping caused by the boards uneven areas.
Pro's do this but keep it a secret to their advantage. I personally know who does!
This is not going to make you all of a sudden land any trick you attempt. You still have to learn the mechanics of a trick and practice how to perform it. Balancing only assists by putting all the trouble of landing a trick on the skater, because they will know it's not the board that is the issue.
Decks are different, even if you choose the same width, length, and wheel base.
The wood has different densities all over, and absorbs glues/resins unevenly. The result is an unbalanced board in different areas every time you get a new deck. This is why you can get a new deck and have a horrible day skating.
Balancing a deck each time you replace one will flip the same way your last deck did! YES IT'S TRUE. A balanced board flips evenly, smooth, and consistent when performed right. Novice skaters to pro's will really feel the benefits.
Balancing a skateboard will become a new standard in skateboarding.

This Video explains what skateboard wheel bearing spacers are, what they do, and why we need them.
You'll also discover what happens to your wheels and bearings while using bearings spacers.
This video shows in detail how bearing spacers and skate wheels are manufactured with conflicting sizes and so rarely work in conjunction.
You'll also see how skateboard wheel molds and tools can cause a wheel center to be crooked and effects wheel and bearing performance.
There is also information about how a truck hanger and axle also have a dramatic effect on the inside bearing and how it can slow an entire board down.
After viewing this video you'll surely discover that skateboard manufacturing is not always precise or of high quality. It's time for skateboard consumers to look for quality over brand name. Don't settle for pop out products that brands know you'll buy. Avoid brand-washing. Demand quality and stay away from pop out products.

Fixing a chipped skateboard deck is very cheap and easy.
Also learn how to simply remove grip tape and apply a new sheet. Check out the rest of the videos for more helpful tips on all kinds of skateboard repairs and maintenance. SUBSCRIBE!!!
If you have questions about:
How to fix a delaminating skateboard, or how to fix delamination, Send me a message. I'll have a video on this shortly.
If a deck is still in good shape and has started to delaminate it may be a manufacturer's defect. Even if you've had a deck for 6 months, delamination should not occur. This should be taken care of by either the shop you purchased the deck from of the manufacturer directly. Your deck should be replaced for free! Any good shop will return it, if not talk to the manufacturer.
If you have had the deck for quite a while and it is starting to delaminate, you can fix it easily with a quality wood glue. You do need a clamp pr two to hold the plies together for at least 24 hours.
Squirt some glue between the plies. It doesn't need to be perfect. The glue will spread when the clamps are applied.
Use a flat stick (similar to a ruler) to evenly distribute pressure from the clamps.
Let the glue cure/dry for 24 hours. Sand away all the glue that squeezed out. It's that easy.
Will this affect the pop? It shouldn't because now the plies are stiff and solid as one piece. You should have pretty good pop after this.
If you have any questions that have to do with anything skateboarding feel free to send me a message.
