Trying another shape
Some started as straightforward decks. Others used deep cutouts and a more open structure. Building several let me keep adjusting the proportions instead of treating one design as final.

Longboard Builds
The build I keep coming back to.
Entry notes
I have always liked building longboards. Each one is a chance to change the deck shape, try a different finish or graphic, work out a new grip layout, and end with something I can actually ride.

Making each one different
The boards became a place to experiment with paint, graphics, contrasting wood, grip tape, and the small details that make a finished setup feel personal.
Finishing with a ride
A longboard is only finished when the trucks and wheels are on and it works on pavement. That final ride turns the design and woodworking decisions into immediate feedback.
