A video I felt like making so that I could show the collection of pictures of OTHER PEOPLES (only three of them are mine) shlongboards that I have found.

A shlongboard gets its name from being a shortboard (a street/park deck) that has been made into a longboard so the term shlongboard is literally the combination of the words short and longboard although the term shlongboard is not actually used to describe a short/smaller longboard, it is also very commonly misspelt as schlongboard.
A Shlongboard is a standard street/park deck with its wheelbase extended by re-drilling new truck mounting holes closer to the ends of the board.
The trucks are often mounted on the kicktails as a method of dropping the board while at the same time wedging them outward and increasing their turning ability while simultaneously lowering the board's standing platform.
They are often set up with wider trucks and larger wheels designed for longboarding.
Shlongboards are normally D.I.Y. projects built by beginner longboarders to save money but still create the feeling of longboarding.
These Shlongboards cannot be traced back to any actual person as the inventor/creator of these type of boards.
