  • Ricky Glaser from Braille Skateboarding asked for a carbon fiber ripsurf (like a ripstick) and we delivered. We use epoxy resin, carbon fiber, maple veneers and a vacuum bag mold to make the deck. Then Andrew bends and welds up some trucks to mount the casters. After that it's off the the laser cutter to engrave some crispy graphics on the bottom of the deck and do some finishing. It was a super fun and challenging project. We hope Braille has as much fun skating it as we did building it.

    This is a really cool ripsurf. I have been ripsticking for over 5 years and never seen a ripstick of this high of quality. Good job I would love to be able to ride it.

  • @livens100

    Cool build, you guys definitely went above and beyond on designing this waveboard. At 14:07 I though you were going to just bolt on the chopped Ripstik trucks, which would have been cool enough for me :).

    Just watched the braille vid think that a layer or two of plexiglass might as a lil more flex for the grinds (no clue but an idea i had)

  • @shishkabob68

    I love what you guys are doing. I always thought it would be cool to make a skateboard or even know how to make a skateboard. Now that I've found this channel I'm excited to learn any tips you guys have. It's going to be interesting to see your channel and the support for your channel grow.

      Thanks! Selling them isn’t really our thing and it wouldn’t be economical - but maybe you could make your own from our video:)

    if you take out the gap in the middle a bit it will stay together better

      We spent nearly a week engineering the specific amount of material to get a balance of strength and flexibility. We might have some tricks up our sleeve for a version 2 :)
