    "The whole process of how the skateboard is made" :
    1. Take a blank skateboard deck that magically appeared on your desk
    2. Print the graphic on it

      All skateboards come from a small handful of manufacturers. All skateboard are no better than a 30 dollar blank from the same manufacturer. Skateboards are mold pressed with ply, the same way a fingerboard made but to larger scale. There is no other way to fuse long thin strips of wood while at the same time molding its shape. Mold press or bust, magic isnt real.

    "How skateboards are made" *spends 18 mins showing you how someone irons a already printed graphic to an already built deck*...

    This is "How graphics on skateboards". This is not how skateboards are made...

      The artist in me always cringes a little when it comes skateboard graphics. There's way too much copyright infringement and near-art plagiarism from way too many talented artists.

      True. They just showed how they print the bottom of the deck. But like you said, interesting.

    I'd love to see how they make it from the wooden planks through the press, bonding...
    Also super glad to see the boss knows everything what his employees are doing and he understands their work. That's what all bosses should be
