SkateboardingThe Ultimate Skateboard HOW TO GUIDE!by Tim SwikeSkateboarding is one of those modern day sports that have now jumped almost two generations!
Okay, so you don't see very many silver heads packing the skate parks or annoying pedestrians by weaving in and out of traffic. But there are plenty of grandparents and parents who recognize the terms Quicksilver and half-pipe!
The one thing you will notice, however, is that the prices enjoyed by skaters 30 and 40 years ago truly are a thing of the past! And you thought stuff was expensive in the seventies!
Maybe you remember the day when you just bought a new board if yours was damaged. Not anymore. That's exactly why the time has come for an overall guide to setting up your board and repairing it.
How to Set Up & Repair a Complete Skateboard does exactly what it says and saves the skateboard owner (or his or her parents) money.
There are four distinct reasons why How to Set Up & Repair a Complete Skateboard should become part of your family library:
- Number One and most obvious is saving hundreds of dollars in setup and repair fees.
- Eliminate down time by making speedy, on site repairs.
- Fixing a problem immediately saves wear and tear on the equipment.
- Keeps your equipment safe.
Having even a little bit of knowledge can save you tons of money. Take a look at what you will learn and remember every little task you learn results in savings at the cash register. . .ka-ching!
- tools needed for repairs.
- truck installation and adjustments
- the best wheels for skateboarding
- kingpin bushing installation
- pivot bushing installation
- how to repair chips and cracks
- how do graphics affect a deck's performance

As you can see, this is not a wimpy little presentation. How to Set Up & Repair a Complete Skateboard is 135 jam-packed pages complete with illustrations to show you step-by-step how to set up and maintain you skateboard.
Notice we said SHOW YOU, not TELL YOU! So many digital e-books give you great content, but unless you are a visionary, a picture really IS worth a thousand words.
Spring is here and the outdoors is tugging at you. Maybe your kids have already started dropping hints about new skateboards or upgrades.
Before you spend a dime on new boards, parts of equipment grab your copy of How to Set Up & Repair a Complete Skateboard and be ready for the weekend. Maybe you'd even like to try on you own again. What do they say about riding a bike?
You never forget! Have fun!About The Author
Tim Swike
I'm Tim Swike and I started skateboarding in 1985.
At 35 years old, that makes me one of the older ones at the skateparks nowadays.
I am still at it even after a blown-out knee and multiple ankle injuries.
I've seen skateboard decks go from being 10" wide in the 1980's all the way down
to 7.5" in the 2000's, but basic maintenance has always stayed the same.
Much of the information in this guide is from my years of trial and error. It helped me
then and still helps me to this day.
This has saved me tens of thousands of dollars over the years.
It can help you too!
