This review is from: How To Setup And Repair A Complete Skateboard: Everything You Need To Know About Skateboard Care. (Paperback)
If you want to customize your skateboard, build one from components or refurbish your "oldie but goodie" this book has all the detailed information you need. In addition to an excellent description of all mechanical aspects of skateboard construction, the author offers tips that affect the performance of your skateboard, including types of wheels and how they grip the surface you're riding on. That's just one of many points that helped me get a positive outcome on my skateboard projects. I recommend this book without hesitation.
