Skateboarding

There are many ways to break in your new shoes. One way is to repititively bend your shoes in half. Another way, which might be proven as harmful to your health, the materials in the shoe, or your microwave, is to put your shoes in the microwave and set it for 5 seconds. Or you can do it the good old fashion way and just skate in them for a while, maybe just do some ollies and kickflips for a while.

well, you definitely do NOT want one that has a p3nis on it. That's bad. Because if you fall, it may penetrate you anally, and you will be scarred for life. Not to mention everytime you fart, you'll take a small dump.

Element is one of the most reliable and successful skateboard brands to look for

Almost is a very good brand that i would recommend. they have good pop and a nice concave.

The best would be almost with the fiber discs in them but personally i don't go for the deck technology i go for baker it is a very good brand and reliable.

You need good balance. You will need steady arms when holding the camera and bend your legs to keep balance. The equipment you need is a clear camera with a handle or strap and a fish eye lens should do the trick. =]

You could really use any kind of backpack, as long as they have the straps on the back for the skateboard. Well there is a website for specific bags for boards, which I found one bag for penny skateboards, its an organic bag, because that matters.

YES

Yes, you can. There are a variety of ways, but the most common way is from head trauma. If someone falls off at any sort of height while skating, and they were not wearing a helmet, then the could suffer a severe enough concussion that they go into a coma and slowly die.

Well, Sooner or later your soles of your shoe are going to wear down no matter what, But to slow down the process try not to Slide your foot across the floor while skateboarding to slow yourself down, Learn to drag your tail of the skateboard, but maybe at times you will have to use your foot to slow down, I Woldnt be too worried about it though :)

colored paint... usually more than one color.

Instructions

== * Pencil Tape measure 3/4-inch plywood Screws Circular saw Jig saw Concrete mix Reinforcing wire Mixing bucket Uncut skate deck Sandpaper WD-40 # Step 1 Organize your tools, and clear your work bench. You will need a place to construct your skateboard mold that is well lit and organized. Mixing concrete can be messy business, so make sure the area doesn't have carpet that could be damaged or ruined. # Step 2 Use a circular saw to build a box from the pieces of 3/4-inch plywood. You will need this box to be 9 1/2 inches wide by 34 inches long by 6 inches high. The box should fit together tightly. Drill the screw holes into the wood for the box. # Step 3 Cut your uncut skate deck down to 9 1/2 by 34 inches square. Start in the center of the uncut skate deck and measure out to the edge using your tape measure to find the proper measurement. Saw the deck down to the proper size. # Step 4 Sand the skate deck down and make sure all the surfaces are completely smooth. Put the skate deck into the box you made bottom side up, and make sure it fits nice and tight in the box. Drill four screw holes in both sides of the deck, and insert the screws. # Step 5 Take two pieces of 3/4-inch plywood and cut them into 3 by 11 inches wooden slats. Drill two on the top of each slat, and connect them to the box. # Step 6 Insert thread rods into each of the two holes on both slats. Thread a nut onto each rod. # Step 7 Spray your mold with some WD-40. This will make for easy removal of the wood of your skate decks from the concrete of the mold. Set your box on a flat, level surface. # Step 8 Mix your concrete. Pour your concrete mix into the mixing bucket, and mix it according to the instructions on the bag. Fill the completed box with the freshly mixed concrete. Once the box is properly filled with the concrete, give it time to cure. The cure time depends on the brand and will differ depending on the temperature of the area you are constructing your mold in. # Step 9 Take the wooden box apart from around the concrete mold. If the wood is sticking to the concrete, you may have to use some tools to pry the wood from the mold. Be very careful when prying the wood from the concrete so that you don't chip or crack the concrete mold. # Step 10 Reconstruct the box you used, and start the whole process over, only put the other skate deck bottom side down to create the other part of the mold. Allow the concrete to set in the wood box again, remove it, and your skateboard mold is complete.

you get what you pay for

If you mean skate team, then he is in Birdhouse.

Have a nice day!:)

Long board wheels or any skateboard wheels are generally made of polyurethane, ore just urethane. Long board wheels are generally softer and larger than regular skateboard wheels. The softer the wheel, the smoother and quieter the ride is, but hard, smaller wheels are good for landing tricks, but go slower and bumpier. Since long boards are generally not used for flip tricks, they can focus on speed and ride quality.

The first skateboards were made out of wooden boxes or boards attached to skate wheels - the first skateboarders ripped the wheels out of roller skates and placed them on the bottom of the wooden boxes/boards to ride them.

usally it all depends, it depends on if you company is well known, say for example you sell like 200 boards out of the whole year and you sell thhem for 50 dollars each in shops or whatever usally with all of other stuff you sell like shirts wheels anything affiliated with the company makes.

Skateboards are made out of 7 sheets of wood, usually Canadian Rock maple. They are glued together with veneer. New designs have been putting carbon-fiber layers into their boards, specially designed layers with air pockets(Element Helium), and other parts to increase strength and decrease weight.

Usually they are made up of 7 very thin shaped pieces of wood called ply's. The pieces are layed ontop of each other forming a criss cross pattern with the directions of the grains of the woods and then glued together very tightly

== == A shortboard while more difficult to stand up on is easier to maneuver. A longboard, also known as a Malibu, is easier to stand up on, making it better for certain conditions and types of surfing, they are usually nine to ten feel long with one to three fins. Their size can make them harder to get past the breaking waves than shortboards but they are still a better alternative for beginners due to the comparative ease of use. Both shortboards and longboards come in a variety of styles but the defining difference is usually size and to a lesser extent, the number of fins, as shortboards often have two, three or even four or five fins to make it easier to do tricks and such. There is a size in between these two boards called a "Minimal", which usually is around 7 feel long and the same shape as a longboard, these are aimed at being good beginner boards and are a balance of being short enough to easily get out past the break while being long enough for inexperienced users to stand up. Longboards have also existed much longer than shortboards, and were used as long as 250 years ago and probably longer by the Polynesians.

Tony Hawks quoted favorite foods are: Sushi and Bagel bites.

I would suggest spitfire wheels for street skating but to be honest the brand doesnt matter as much as the hardness of the wheel. For street skating you would probably want a hardness of about 95a to 100a.

thre for numebering it so theywont misplace it

Custom skateboards are available online from websites like Custom Skateboard Deck, Custom Skateboards, Sk8 Factory, and Zazzle. Prices can be as low as $17 per skateboard for larger bulk orders.

it took me a year to get sponsored but about one month you have to master the basic tricks good luck.

yes I agree with him ^ and I've skated 9 and a half months and I have made amazing progress, and you will know if you are right for skateboarding.

Rotule Desert Eagle with Ronins or Aera precision trucks.

Protection for your head, knees, wrists and elbows is a first. Then consideration and safety for other people that you might bump/crash into.

If your a parent, don't make your kid wear that stuff, unless their gonna be doing stuff like vert skating (skating on ramps and stuff), if its just on the street, don't need it, makes them feel dumb and babyish! im 14!!

The key is in the pop, there needs to be more pop if it is moving from under your feet. I had the same problem for a couple of days and then realised that my tail was only just reaching the floor. The answer is just hit the tail down real hard!!
