Safety Instructions

 

SKATEBOARDING SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

-Skate only in designated areas where you can enhance your skills, avoiding sidewalks or streets where serious accidents can occur to both skateboarders and pedestrians. -Children under the age of 8 should always be supervised while skateboarding.

-Take your time to learn. If you start losing balance, step off and begin again. Begin with gentle slopes and gradually progress to steeper slopes where you can safely dismount without falling.

-Most skateboard injuries involve broken bones, so it's important to learn how to fall properly (such as rolling if possible) without the skateboard first.

-When starting to learn skateboarding, it's advisable to do it with a friend or parent. The majority of severe accidents happen during the initial month.

-Before dismounting, be aware of the potential path the skateboard may take, as it could cause harm to others.

-Avoid skateboarding on wet or uneven surfaces.

-Join a local club to expand your knowledge and demonstrate your commitment to skateboarding safely and considerately.

Glueing

Each layer is glued with water proof glue. To get a good pressure, each press has six threaded rods that are connected with wooden bars. A long leverage is all it takes to get the over excessed glue out of the board.

Getting in shape

When the boards are done with their second round in the press, the holes for the trucks are made which makes it easier to cut off excess material. Having not much extra material left makes it way easier to get the final shape with a copy router.
