Can skateboarding stop global warming?
No, but every little helps, and if millions of teens in our country skateboarded to school instead of sitting in a car, then millions of cars are off the road and NOT burning petroleum. Spread the word.
A:Man produces a small portion of the greenhouse gases. Half of all the greenhouse emissions by man are for consumption inside of buildings. Less than 20% of the total emissions of GHG comes from vehicles. Much of that comes from trucks transporting goods. Almost all of the rest comes from daily activities that could not be done on a skateboard.If the entire world gave up all of their automobiles and replaced them with skateboards, the reduction of GHG emissions would not be noticeable. The family skateboard would also require a fuel, body power which emits CO2. CO2 emissions from the principal engine (probably dad) would increase. Making the reduction even less. Dad would end up healthier is the only thing that ultimately would happen. Good for Dad.

What lubricant makes bearings go fastest on a skateboard?
I found that thin oils work best. WD-40, 3-in-1, etc... I used a combination of cleaning with lighter fluid (ask mom and dad) then soaking in WD-40 overnight had my wheels spinning more freely. I made up my own combo that's had the same GMN bearings spinning fast for over 18years.
Don't use WD 40. It attracts dust and dirt, which are bad for the bearings.
Any lubricant will attrace dust and dirt. WD-40 is ideal for cleanning purposes. It will loosen dirt and debris prior to lube. Understand that a base component of WD-40 is fish oil, so it will break down if used alone..

To take wax off a surfboard you need to leave it in the sun for half an hour, so that the wax melts. You can sometimes simply wipe/scrape it off with a wax comb or a butter knife carefully. To get the last remanants of wax off orange oil works well (with little orange man picture on front). If it was a surfboard you could try a little turps, but i would use turps sparingly on a body board as it coulc eat away at the foam,
