Ok I wanted to know if I should buy a board then make a board for a summer project or just sand the board I bought and put my design on it. This is my design but it probably isnt realistic cuz I havent painted a board before. Just give me your opinion.

that design is simple enough- sketch it on the board with a pencil, then take your time with some acrylic housepaints and seal it when youre done.

It's well worth it. When I see what I did with my skate, after all the work and time I put in, I'm pretty proud of it. It's good to do stuff like that.

STPHNSN23, i nailed a dock 2 years ago on my new trip funked up the front of it but still rides fine, i let go of the handle and then was going to sit right on the dock (ive done it tons of times) but this time i was giong to fast and ran into a pole, it hurt

Joseph S., where do you ride in Fountain Hills, the parents just bought land there and building,

Yeah, hit a 2-3 foot high dock. I was edging really hard to do a flip on the skate (how I always finish my run), but my driver thought I wanted to get wipped into shore. So I was giving it everything, and Ray turned the boat to whip me. I was going so fast, I just skimmed across the two wakes and plowed straight into the dock. I bailed just as I hit, and only got a face full of sand and a bit of a bump. It was one of the funniest moments in my life. I was laughing SO hard!

It was my fault too, not Rays.

Yeah that would be pretty cool. I ride behind a Super Air. Im 13 so my dad would have to take us, but when you get down here if you wanna ride PM me and we could hook up.
