Hi guys, just to ask who skate and what. I was a skater, now I just use the board to move faster in the city. In the last 20 years I collect some skateboard decks. Are there some skate enthusiasts? Anyone collects skate deck? Here a part of my collection ![skate%20(2)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/a/4/ea4da40908d53c728c768515a2d87ff2729ec0ab.jpeg) ![07](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/c/7/dc7be21712e01d14a07cbe2cecb3e52972b72290.jpeg) ![skate%20(4)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/0/2/702b723b40d48fc3bf9571c35ded842b55f26e02.jpeg) ![skate%20(1)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/a/4/fa4911c9b015f2948f7ef20139be7744aec52175.jpeg) ---

> _I collect some skateboard decks_ Holy cow man, you practically own a skate shop! Hahaha I use to street skate when I was younger, but now I just cruise around on longboards. Here’s an album of one that I made myself. [[Album] [Updated] made a double drop cruiser out of reclaimed oak! ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/6/7/367e26ebda614372c3107a715d6355363a9d9093.jpeg "[Updated] made a double drop cruiser out of reclaimed oak!") ](https://imgur.com/gallery/SLRX3sw) And here is one that I made for my son, the process is more documented in this album. I made his out of my very first build, but it was a tank so I decided to upcycle it. I made some mistakes in this build, but I documented the process and know not to make those mistakes in the future.

Maybe in the future, I can have more time dedicated to woodworking. I really enjoy it, and I really enjoy longboarding.

EPIC! I love longboard too, but were I live (Milano) street are all flat, to you a longboard I should move for 30 or 40 miles. Love your longboard! ---

I mean, I don’t ever really get up to those kinds of speeds. I just like to cruise around. It’s fun if I need to run to the store or just want to go cruise around Old Town or something. These bad boys feel more like a Cadillac. Just super comfy and fun to cruise around on ---

I got back into skateboarding ~10 years ago specifically to ride concrete bowls. The nice thing about the Seattle area is that we have like 5 fantastic skate parks within a 30 minute drive. My boards are usually pretty wide (8.25"+) with huge wheels and fast bearings. I’m still liking the shape of this board, but I could probably go a little wider 😄 ![IMG_2728](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/0/3/90317c19ae02199ab1e749767e76d74c44be99b3.jpeg) ![IMG_2729](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/a/0/fa06d909b5f07a8d5441f5b7c10e7cbb754fcef3.jpeg) ---
