How to Make a Long Board Skateboard
- 1). Place the longboard components on a flat surface. The hardware should include eight bolts, eight small nuts and four large nuts.
- 2). Hold the wooden longboard deck sideways. Insert one bolt through each of the eight holes through the top of the longboard deck. Flip the longboard deck upside down with the graphics or picture on the bottom facing up.
- 3). Align one of the wide longboard trucks onto four of the bolts inserted through the deck. Place the other longboard truck onto the remaining four bolts. Tighten one small nut over each of the eight bolts with the skate tool while holding the bolts in place with the screwdriver.
- 4). Fit two bearings into each of the large longboard wheels with the tip of the skate tool.
- 5). Insert two of the large longboard wheels onto the opposing ends of one of the trucks. Repeat with the remaining two wheels and one truck. Tighten one large nut over each of the four longboard wheels.
- 6). Flip the longboard over and take it to a paved area. Ride the longboard to ensure proper construction.
