    Default kids desserve to have a good board too...

    My kids at school had a very very old skate board, almost destroyed :


    So I decided to build a new one. It tooks 2 hour + painting + griptape (it's the symbol of basque country). I'm curious to see I long it take to this little monsters to destroy this one...

    A great way to spread the stoke!

    reshaping/refinnishing is a great way to give a beaten deck new life.

    Great work!
    Most teachers at my school didn't even know what a skateboard was.

    May be time to build some more decks (or run a board-building class?), to distribute amongst those 55 eager skate-rats?

    now when you say basque country, I assume you are referring to Pais Vasco... San Sebastian? I'm in Segovia right now!

    that's so awesome! How did you do that? It looks like there's complete missing spots on the original that you where able to completely restore.
