			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Skateboarding Origins And What Makes Up A Skateboard</strong></p>
<p>Skateboarding has become ever so popular these days. It is no longer just for punk kids and has become a part of our culture. Skateboarding can be seen in movies, on tv, and in video games. One of the funnest video games I played when I was younger was tony hawk, a skateboarding game. And skateboarding games keep popping up too, some of them rather good.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Now, as far as how skateboarding began, there is some debate. Some say it was started by surfers that wanted to try and surf on land. Same say it was by kids who tore apart their sop box racers and rode on just the bottom part. No matter who or when it started, it is no doubt that skateboarding is here to stay. Most cities even have skate parks, which are big parks of concrete with built in ramps and half pipes. They are really fun and you can usually pick up some new moves for your skateboard just by watching some of the others skaters there.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
What does a skateboard consist of? Well, skateboards have come a long way, but your basic skateboard components consist of the deck, wheels and bearing, and the trucks, which hold the wheels. The deck itself is really important and is typically made of wood. However, more and more skateboard decks are being made from plastic composites, because of its flexibility. Also, the wider deck, the better it is for doing tricks. Most street skateboards are about 7-8 inches wide while trick skateboards are up to 10 inches. You'll also see grip tape used on decks, which help keep your feet on the board.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The trucks and the wheels are the other two main components of the skateboard. Every skateboard has two trucks and these are what connect the wheels to the skateboard. Trucks are usually made of metal, typically from some sort of aluminum alloy. When the trucks are connected to the board, there is usually some sort of rubber barrier, which helps for turning and flexibility. The more stiff you make the barrier, the harder it is to turn.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
When it comes to the wheels on skateboards, they are usually made from a special kind of plastic called polyurethane. They also come in different shapes and sizes, all depending of course on how you plan to use your skateboard. Because they help keep the skateboard close to the ground, smaller skateboard wheels are good for doing tricks. Skateboard wheels are also measured for how hard the polyurethane is processed. They are rated on an "A" scale. Your soft wheels will be around 70a, while the hard wheels are in the lower 100's.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Most skateboarders enjoy being part of a group of peers who have the same hobby. However, most skateboarders want to express our individuality as well. Luckily, there are plenty of accessories the avid skateboarder can choose from to customize your skateboard and make it match your own unique style. All of the different accessories can become overwhelming, so it is important to explore all of your possibilities before making changes to your skateboard.</p>
<p>If you are looking to quickly make your skateboard your own, the deck is a great place to start. By adding stickers, decals, stenciled pictures, or by painting your deck, you can give your skateboard a design like no other board.</p>
<p>Another way to personalize your skateboard is to use uniquely colored wheels instead of standard skateboard wheels. Depending on the type of appearance you want to give your board, you can match all of your accessories or mix the colors up a bit. You could even find glow-in-the-dark wheels at some specialty stores.</p>
<p>Adding grip tape is another great way to accessories your skateboard. Grip tape is a necessity for your board and comes in great colors such as; neon green, blue, yellow and black to name a few. Besides adding stability to your board so that you have better controls for maneuvers, it is also a great way to change the overall appearance of your board.</p>
<p>Logos are also a popular addition to skateboards. Most skateboarding retailers offer logo decals for the leading skateboard gear. You can also find my skateboard specialty stores online that offer logos. You could also take this idea a step further and have your own custom logo created to let everyone know who the skateboard belongs to.</p>
<p>You do not have to be limited to skateboard accessories either. There are many products out there that can be used to accessorize your skateboard, it just depends on how creative you want to be with your personalization. There is no right or wrong way to accessorize your skateboard. You can go as extreme or as basic as you want. It is all about portraying your individuality. Some skateboarders want to stand up for their particular sport and add stickers with wording such as, "Skateboarding Isn't A Crime", or something similar. While others prefer to be more subdued in their choice of skateboard add-ons.</p>
<p>No matter how you choose to accessorize your skateboard, the most important thing is to make if fun. Always be sure to purchase quality products so that you do not end up with peeling stickers or faded paint. Using quality accessories will ensure that the overall appearance of your skateboard will look great no matter how old it is.</p>
<p>Remember, no matter how nice your skateboard is, it won't last forever. Don't go overboard spending money on accessories that you will not be able to use on another board. Take the time to compare prices so that you always get the best deals when creating your totally unique skateboard.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Buying a Skateboard - Tips and Hints</strong></p>
<p>It's easy to be a little awed by all the variety of designs that are out there when you start shopping for a skateboard. The graphics can be incredible and so can the skateboards that were created by some of your favorite professional skateboarders. Don't let the appearance of the skateboard fool you though, there is more to a skateboard than how it looks. You want a skateboard that will stand the test of time, not just one that will look good for a few months then fall apart.</p>
<p>The way you skate should influence the kind of skateboard you buy - think about your style and what you like to do with the skateboard. Do you need a skateboard that is longer or one that is wider instead? Your physical size is also something to consider. People who are lighter can use a smaller deck while those who are heavier need to think about getting a more solid deck on their skateboard.</p>
<p>Do some research on the internet before you start shopping - see what others have to say about the different types of skateboards. Also, visit local skate shops and talk to some of the employees to see what they would recommend. Generally, if you are new to skating, you want to look for a board with a wider deck than more experienced skaters might have. If you are just starting out with skateboarding, buy a less expensive board until you get a feel for skating and see if you really like the sport and want to keep it up. If you decide skating isn't for you, then you won't have wasted too much money.</p>
<p>Don't decide on a skateboard until you have spent a lot of time thinking about the different aspects of the board and how they work for you. You need to consider if the deck size works for you and if the wheels are going to be the right size and the right type for you. You should always try out any skateboard you are thinking about buying just to see if it will do what you are going to want it to do. If a store says that don't allow this, don't buy a skateboard from them!</p>
<p>Online research can also be useful for finding out what others think about specific boards you are considering. Read reviews and comments about the boards you are interested in to get an idea of how happy people are with them and how long they last. Read about how long the skateboards last, especially with daily use. You want one that will last you at least 6 months, if not a year. Skateboards are not cheap, so you don't want to have to buy a new one every few months.</p>
<p>While skateboards can be bought online for less sometimes, you need to get a feel for the board before you buy it. This is why it is good to go to stores in your area and shop around, trying different brands and types of boards. Once you decide on one that you think will work for you, then you can consider purchasing it online. You don't want to buy a skateboard online that you never tried only to find it isn't at all what you wanted - what a waste of money. Remember to find out how much shipping will cost when buying a skateboard online because it varies from store to store.</p>
<p>Don't forget to find out what kind of return policy any store, especially online vendors, has before you buy a skateboard. If you have problems with the skateboard or it just isn't working for you, you should be able to return it and get all your money back as long as you do so within a reasonable time. When buying a skateboard online, make sure the company will be very flexible when it comes to returns.</p>
<p>There are so many different types and styles of skateboards that it can be overwhelming - not every board will work for everyone. Figure out how much you are willing to spend and check out several different skateboards in that price range before you make a final decision. You need to to try as many as possible so you can figure out what type will make you happy and make skating as fun as possible. Also, you want a skateboard that will keep you safe!<br />Skateboards don't have to be expensive, you can get reasonably priced ones in many styles and type. If you are looking to spend a little more, you might think about having one built specifically for you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Why Buying a Cheap Skateboard Could Jeopardize Your Safety</strong></p>
<p>Cheap skateboards aren't a bargain when you consider the possibility for injury. A skateboard that is not well made could fall apart and leave you and the pieces of your cheap skateboard on the ground. That would terrible and very dangerous. A cheap skateboard could be made with inferior parts which could lead to it falling apart and causing injury to you. However, you need to look at more than a skateboards price when trying to buy a safe skateboard.</p>
<p>The price of a skateboard may not reflect quality since manufacturers increase the price of a cheaper skateboard to make it seem like a better product than it is. They know that a lot of consumers equate price with quality. Make sure you aren't buying a cheaply made skateboard with a marked up price or you won't get a good quality product. Also, just because a professional skateboarder endorses a certain brand of boards does not mean that those boards are necessarily the best quality for the price. Educate yourself about how to tell a quality skateboard from a dangerous, cheaply made one.</p>
<p>A good quality deck is the key to a safe skateboard. The skateboard deck holds your weight and allows you to maneuver and steer. Good quality wood must be used on a skateboard deck for it to be safe. The wood should be firmly secured and the edges should be adequately sealed. The best test for a deck is to stand on it and jump slightly to see if you hear a cracking noise. A good quality deck should be flexible to be safe.</p>
<p>Examine the wheels of any prospective skateboard very closely. Wheels will be what allows you to achieve the speed you want. Be aware the you'll need different size wheels if you are planning on using the skateboard for stunts more than for speed. Plastic wheels are something to look out for, especially on cheaper skateboards. You won't get enough grip from plastic wheels to adequately control your skateboard.</p>
<p>The wheels must have good quality bearings to be safe. The bearings, which are inside the wheels, are rated on a scale of 1 to 9 (odd numbers only) and anything less than a 3 is not recommended because it will negatively affect your control of the skateboard. Spin the wheels several times to be sure the bearings move easily and there is no grinding going on in the wheel. Problems with the wheels of a cheap skateboard are going to lead to injury.</p>
<p>The trucks, the axles located on the bottom of the skateboard deck, are also an important part of the board. When looking at skateboards, look for trucks made out of strong, high quality metal that is secured with a good rubber sealant. Rubber holds much better than the cheaper plastic sealants used on poor quality skateboards. If the trucks are not secured well and good quality the skateboard is not worth the money no matter how cheap and will not be safe to ride.</p>
<p>When shopping for a new skateboard, you'll have to find a balance between a safe board and a board in your budget. Buying the cheapest skateboard you can find is not a good idea because it may not be safe. If you can't find one in your price range that is well made and safe, you might think about making your own skateboard. You can make a safe, long lasting, well built skateboard for not a lot of money. Don't risk your safety to save a few dollars on a skateboard, it isn't worth it. Skateboarding is a safe sport as long as you have good equipment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Why You Should Build Your Own Skateboard</strong></p>
<p>Purchasing a skateboard can be a very expensive investment, especially if you are purchasing a top-of-the-line quality skateboard. Before rushing out to buy that skateboard of your dreams, you may want to consider the benefits of building your own.</p>
<p>It is likely that once you start looking in to building your own board, you will find that the profit margin on pre-made skateboards is unbelievably high and it is much cheaper to build a custom skateboard from scratch than to buy one already built. It is amazing how little it costs to make your own skateboard if you know where to buy your parts.</p>
<p>It is not uncommon for a customer to pay top price to have their skateboard built to their specific needs, especially if the customer spends a lot of time on a skateboard. However, the same skateboard can be built for much less if the customer buys all of the custom parts and builds the skateboard themselves.</p>
<p>Since skateboards are manufactured to meet the needs of the majority of skateboarders, there are times when there is not a standard model available that truly fits the skateboarder's needs. Therefore, building your own skateboard may be the only way to accomplish getting the features you need at an affordable cost.</p>
<p>By building your own skateboard, you have the control to put every feature you want on your board so that it is exactly the way you want it. You can purchase a deck that will be the perfect fit for your size, the type and size of wheels that make your skateboard comfortable and maneuver the way you want it, and add all of the little details that truly make the skateboard your own creation. By customizing your skateboard as much as possible, you will have built a skateboard that you will get plenty of enjoyment from.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, many skateboarders don't realize how much cheaper it is to build their own skateboard and they end up purchasing cheaply made skateboards because they do not have the money to invest in a good one. Sadly, this decision usually ends up in the customer being unhappy with a board that probably isn't going to last very long. A much better option would be to use that same money and buy the materials you need to build your own. Not only will you get a better return on your investment, but you will have a much better product. You also get the priceless feeling of knowing that you built your board by hand. </p>
<p>More experienced skateboarders have spent enough time on their skateboards to know exactly what they do and do not like on a board. When building your own, you have more control over the features can add and delete to your skateboard. Not only does this give you a better skateboard, it will often help with your ability to perform tricks and stunts.</p>
<p>By building your own skateboard, you can bypass the frustration of having limitations on what you can and cannot do on your skateboard. You will be more likely to use your skateboard more often, and it will be easier to hone your craft. Since it is easier and cheaper than most might think to build your own board, this option is definitely worth checking out!</p>

<p>Tillman the skateboarding bulldog from the iphone commercial. All clips are from January 2007. Tillman was a little over a year old at the time and is a much better skateboarder now. Tillman does not belong to me, to find out more about Tillman contact Mike Maguire sportsagent82@yahoo.com A little history of this first video. I Filmed the video using a just purchased Panasonic Lumix TZ1. I was bicycling through Venice Beach California when I came upon the skateboarding dog. This was probably the only time I used the Lumix's wide screen movie mode. I suspect one of the biggest reasons my video was selected, second only to the awesome Tillman, was not much user generated 16:9 content was available on youtube.(iphone is 16:9) Originally the first video had the soundtrack "Giving In" by linkin Park. Once the video appeared in iphone commercials I panicked and removed the video from youtube because of the attention and I had no rights to use the song. As time approached for Apple's release of the iphone with youtube, youtube contacted me and requested I reinstate the video without the soundtrack. Youtube wanted users to be able to view the skateboarding dog in the store and after purchasing their iphone. Unfortunately youtube gave me only a few hours to re-edited video before the iphone release. The original background sound on most of the clips was ruined by hysterical laughter from a woman watching Tillman so I cut and pasted sound in from other parts of the video to cover <b>...</b>

<b>Product Description</b><br />Positiv Skateboards are a reflection on the positive experiences that have been and can be achieved through skateboarding. Positiv skateboards provide a high quality skateboard at an entry level price. They are the perfect first skateboard for beginners and a smart choice for price conscious advanced skaters alike. Just like our successful REDS bearings, Positiv skateboards are well received and respected as a quality Skate One product. Positiv Skateboards are backed by our unparalleled warranty. Positiv Skateboards are made from premium North American Hard Rock Maple or Northern Hard Birch, depending on the model you buy. Seven plies of quality veneer are cold-fused together using high-impulse, water-resistant glue in Skate One’s propietary AirLam™ presses, to ensure maximum pop and durability. If you are a beginner, save some money and try a Northern Hard Birch Model. This gives you a deck you can learn on at home and also ride at the skatepark. If you want the very best, move up to the high performance North American Hard Rock Maple models for extra pop and durability. Both are available in 4 popular shapes and sizes. In addition, each component has been designed and built to our demanding specifications and then tested during and after production to ensure consistently high quality. Positiv Skateboard bearings are precision chromium steel bearings lubricated with Speed Cream™ and feature a double rubber shield to keep dirt out, and lube in. Positiv Skateboards wheels are made from super high rebound hand cast polyurethane for great grip and roll. Positiv Skateboard trucks are gloss pained, cast aluminum with carbon steel axle and kingpin and high rebound polyurethane cushions make turning easy.</p>
