ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

Hi Guys
Im really interested in creating my first longboard, i have a few designs atm but im really have no idea what wood to use, i know to look for some Plywood but i dont know what type, how thick etc.

I want something that will have some flex, but be strong, and i want it to look fucking sick (im thinking of oil staining it)

But yeah, fill me in, what wood is the best???

Thanks
JR

well all i can say is.. dont expect your first board to be amazing haha, i took me about 4 boards to get the hang of it but i would recommend just going for some hardwood ply around 3-4mm also get yourself some fibre glass cloth and resin i reckon

It took you only four boards to get the hang of?

and you produced that sick topmount as your fifth?

Awesome dude! the Aussie board builders are killin it! Yewww!

I can see some worthy competition on the horizon...
