This workshop will help you build your own self-powered ride – an old school, hardwood pintail longboard skateboard. A longboard is perfect for cruising around and honing your carving skills. And you’ll get bragging rights when someone asks you where you bought your sweet board.

This workshop is an excellent exercise in the core woodworking skills – planing, cutting, and smoothing a rough piece of hardwood. After honing your deck, you’ll attached the rolling stock so you can ride off in style.

You’ll provide a few choices of wood for your deck, including both solid and plywood, as well as your choice of wheel color.

What Our Workshop Guests Are Saying

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My BF and I did the date night package for the “make your own longboard” class and had an amazing experience. Chris and David created a great vibe and expertly guided us towards our final product. The date night package comes with pizza and wine and both were super delicious. I cannot recommend this place enough. We had 0 woodworking experience and ended up with a really cool board and had a ton of fun along the way. — Termeh
