Longboard Cruisers, Carving, Commuting, Long Distance Pumping and BoardwalkingWhen it's all about the ride, the general discipline of riding a longboard.
How much would it cost for me to have you make one of those for me? I like it. a lot... and I want!
Thanks Pepperdro.Glad you like it.
On the deck I spent about 12 bucks for glue, sandpaper and clearcoat. I got the wood from an old abandoned school and used wood that I found there, from the 50's. I figured it would be green to recycle and also the wood would have some kind of history to it.
It was mostly time and love that went into this one. This is only my second build so I don't think I'm good enough to build for others yet (and charge anything for it) I'm now working on a dropmount bomber which is keeping me busy. But if I decide to start making them (I got about 3 requests from people who saw/rode it and am considering it) I will let you know.
I'm a noob when it comes to doing business and I haven't really thought about it. I just built a ride, you know? thanks again, made my day.

I have the Original Derringer 28 and I really like it. It has neither a front or back lip, which makes it a serious carver. I really like how it rides though. It took me a little while to figure out exactly how to ride but once you understand its awesome. I highly recommend this board.
