  • It was a smooth ride for about a year. The narrow center caused too much flex and sheer for the glue to handle and it delaminated a year after I built this. Since then I've made several other boards with better designs and utilized wood glue, epoxy, fiberglass and carbon fiber.

  • @obriguy can i use a skateboard wheel to a longboard??

  • @fredmaniak123 Might be possible, but wouldn't work the best. Larger wheels roll over more and track better for carving.

  • would this mold type that u used work for a dervish type longboard cause i am making one in that type of shape??

  • @tomevans1000 It would get close...but the dervish boards have concavity AND camber. The method I used in my vid only allows for camber.
