How to make a super simple longboard press
Loading...
Uploaded by OtherPlanetsSkate on Jun 28, 2011
Pretty much the simplest, fool proof longboard press you can make.
Very cheap and effective, though limited to concave only. No 3 dimensional shapes.
For a video actually showing a board being press with a similar setup, check this out: http://vimeo.com/5294000

Nice Video! This press is really simple. We just released a making-of video from the POGO Longboard manufactory in Southern Germany. They use an old Ski press. Works really good, too! Check out our YouTube channel to see how they build a Longboard from scratch with snowboard technology!

Its even enough for 1/8" baltic birch, but if you're trying to do maple, or formica, or 1/4" bb it wont work.
