Use the innovative techniques created by the Roarockit Skateboard Company in Maui, Hawaii to build your own skateboard deck. Learn how to build a professional quality longboard or street deck using seven layers of Canadian hard maple veneer, a one-sided foam mould and atmospheric pressure. Then, using basic woodworking tools like surforms and sandpaper, you will prepare the deck for graphics. Your creativity will make your deck a one-of-a-kind design as you apply your own graphics using stencil and paint techniques. No previous woodworking experience is required.
