This is an exciting book that promises much for the would be skate rat and board maker. The approach is from the ground up in every way as nothing is assumed, everything technique-wise is covered.
The book also outlines the history of skateboard design and details the origins of the skateboard movement and those who started ‘surfing concrete’ some fifty years ago.
Projects cover a hackboard, vintage pinstriped cruiser, Bergerboard Longboard, a skate deck, and also how to build a custom designed model to your own specs.
Hardware types and installation is covered as is finishing styles and techniques.
Just to spice things up there are some profiles of top skateboard makers to be inspired by as well.
