my 18inch cruiser!

[ryanredbaron]

So i was bored.... so i went to wallmart and picked up an 18inch deck (with trucks and everything) for 8 bucks. I got home, tore off the old trucks and slapped on some gullwings, gummies, and some old red bearings i had laying around.









i know it doesnt look lined up with yard stick, but it measures 18 inches dont worry.



it rides ok, i put some 1/2inch risers on it so no wheel bite. Its not a good board, but you can fit it anywhere and it turns heads! It has a kick tail, and a big section for nose turns. So this is what i do when im bored

hahaha that is awesome! you should sand down the graphic and paint it or stain it.

[ryanredbaron]

ya im going to sand it, paint it red, and on the bottom say "Mini red" Cause my nickname is big red, humus name is litte red, mini is mini red! I AM SO LAME


IDEA:

[Gooseman]

NOOOOoooooo! Keep the graphic! It is totally sick. Skate king!! all the way...Dig the flames in the background with the city going to hell and the nice happy grin on the skaters face as if nothing in the world is wrong at the moment because he is skating a wicked ledge. Noice! lol

Way to setup a cheap mini to be badass!

I'd stretch the wheelbase to the max, but a fierce little board nonetheless. Don't forget how short it is and end up dragging your foot on the ground.

[GMR-BOMBER]

Sweet Board!

[funtimes85]

That board is the Sh*t, would be great for a backseat board to have for random ass situations. (breakingdown).

[bob_lesta_marley]

haha. thats DOPE.

[mangels]

I want one ... but I'm not sure I could fit both feet on an 18" board. I'd have to skate parallel stance like Wes Tucker!

[BOMBHILLER]

Nice micro-mini... Congrats!!!

[ryanredbaron]

size doesn't matter its how fast you skate it that matters! I threw some zigzags on it and took it up to 15mph, fell and got to test out my new Slide gloves

but it fits in my backpack so o well



O btw, i wear size 13shoes so im prrtty sure you guys can ride it to, best five bucks I've spent

[CK727]

That is awesome!

[wombat boarder]

hmmm.
as long as you like it
haha
reckon you should move the front truck forward a little to max your wheelbase
