Louisiana US 180

I just finished this one for my good friend's birthday.

Shred or shred not.

This is my latest project that I just finished.  I had some blank decks made for me to paint and grip up. If anyone is interested in purchasing this board,  just send me an email.

Tribal owl

Here's my new commuter board.  It's a Longboard Larry pusher 2.0. Cut out the grip tape then painted in the owl.

What's Bruce Lee's favorite drink?

The board is a Rayne Demonseed Long Treks Limited Edition. I painted the top red and fading into the black over the trucks. I ride this board just about every day. I set it up with caliber trucks and 75mm orangatangs.

What's Bruce Lee's favorite drink? What taa!

Support The Troops

The board is a Longboard Larry Drop Pin. I love this board. I currently ride this one with Bear 10mm Grizzlies with 97mm flywheels. The huge wheels just eat up any cracks and potholes. Super smooth ride.  Heavy to push, but the cruise lasts forever.

This board was a lot of fun to repaint and grip. I totally stripped it down to the bare wood.  Resanded it for paint.  Painted it a bright white with high gloss clear coat so the armor would have some gloss. I made some TIE fighter stencils and spray painted them onto the bottom. I then did the imperial seals at the top and bottom. A little spray of the black from far away gives it some nice little speckled stars.

For the grip,  I first found a nice storm trooper stencil. Then I resized it twice more,  positioned them,  and cleaned up the stencil lines. Next, the lettering. I first cropped all the letters I needed from my alphabet stencil and spelled out my words.  Resized the whole thing then adjusted the placement. Three days later with a razor blade and voila!

Dots

Here's a Bustin Strike I polka dotted awhile ago. The circles were a pain to cut out well. If I ever have to do circles again,  I'd use a circle cutter instead.

I also didn't do a very good job cleaning the board before I put the new grip on. Now I use goof-off to get the old adhesive gummy stuff off.

Dragonfly

Here's another early grip I did. The board is an Envy. I've never seen another like it.  One of my best friends got the board in Florida when he was a kid.

This was the first longboard I ever rode.  I went down a puny little hill at my friend's house and wiped out.  Tore a huge patch out of my left forearm and I was hooked.  That road rash on my arm didn't heal all summer since I would tear it open every time I would slam, which seemed to happen fairly often.  I was much more brave and stupid then. Mainly the latter.
