Im 48 havent skated during pandemic but am gonna start again after watching your vids. I havent skated for 35 years and started again at 47. Great content bro!.
inspirational, u got a new subscriber in me. u combined your skills as an engineer and skater into 1 vid. just had my 1st session last night after an almost 20 years hiatus and somehow landed my 1st ollie by chance to avoid a pothole- probably 2 inches high 🤣
Good stuff!! Your right diy and skateboarding go hand and hand. I remember back in the day taking my bed frame apart to use the metal angle iron from that hahah!
Sick video keep skating man. U are an inspiration to me i am 26 and haven't skated in 9 years but after seeing a couple of your videos i have been motivated to start again.
Love what you’re doing man. I’m 41 and been skating for 30yrs. Skateboarding is a huge part of my success in every area of my life.”Mentally& physically“ Keep up the great videos. I’m actually experimenting with wheels hard to softer. To see which I prefer for driveway skating. Mainly Ledge and flip tricks,with just enough slide when I want. I have rough and smooth concrete in my driveway. I’ll be trying the Ricta Clouds 86a’s next. 🛹
Hey Dan, i'm 52 and skated a ton from 7 to 38 then stopped and just surfed ,i've picked the board up and started again, i]ve had three sessions and am improving fast. I;ve made a box and can grind it already , I want to nose and tail it,I can board slide it both ways, I've got pop shvits both ways, I used to be good at heel flips so i'm going to try those again soon. keep up the videos
Just want to say this is a great channel 👍 I'm 47 and back on the board again,and in the way of building a grindbox and quarter pipe. Your mindset of skating is the same as mine, I hope you keep it up with videos. One question about the angle iron wouldn't it be good to sink it flush with the plywood,then the whells doesn't hang up?
I like how detailed your explanation is for building this ledge. But I would LOVE to see you try build a butter bench! Because I want to build one similar to the ramptech design, which will require some angled cuts. I’ve tried angle iron on concrete, but I am obsessing over building my first butter bench. I don’t have access to 100% recycled plastic lumber in my area, but we have WPC composite lumber, and from my research I came to the conclusion that it will work good enough. Maybe it won’t be as durable, but my plan is to just flip / rotate it or replace it when the time comes. I would like to see you cut curves with a jigsaw too.
Yeah a butter bench would be cool. I believe that Kyro has an old video showing how he made his - hired a welding shop to make the metal frame. What about a layer of nylon on top of a wood ledge?
@@SkateAgain I recently found a better video that describes how he built his butter bench: th-cam.com/video/3YzdtgC0BLw/w-d-xo.html I built mine and it’s pretty good. I understand some people prefer angle iron. It is cheaper & more durable after all. Nylon? Can you please elaborate? Any link to the material?
I build it and it is very sturdy and doesn’t wobble. Grinds well too.
It came out to 160 dollars for all the lumber and screws

That's great to hear, have fun getting back into it!
Thanks for the tip on aluminum. I was going to use the aluminum rails from my old garage door for a rail. Now I know better.
Nice build. Imma make one soon.
