14. 20 Test Questions Is it for Good For Cruising? Will The skateboard Hold me Putting pressure on the deck? Will it steer straight? Will it be comfortable to ride? Will it have good pop off the kick? Will it be easy to control? Will it last? Will the art work Survive against a Board Slide? Is the board to thick or thin? Is it safe to use? Will the deck survive against waterlog control Is it to heavy or light? Will the edges be smooth? Can I land a successful Ollie? Will the edges chip? Will the kick be good sized? Can I turn Right and Left easily? Will the trucks be straight? Will it last if on landing a trick? Is it the right sizing for my feet?

15. Conclusion I am going to design a Old School board that could be marketed by Underground Skate. It will be ridden anywhere ranging from Skate Parks and cruising the streets. I will take into consideration the rides weight because I don’t like to ride something too heavy. Its height is just as important because if its to high the kick wont work as well. It will be built with durability in mind because The safety of it will be depended on The value for money. As for the performance, will depend on how well it is made according to my highly developed design.

17. Modeli ng metho d Pic of model Inform ation gather ed from modeli ng Advant ages disadv antage s how this has showe d it could or should have happen ed Tech Deck what it could look like in the future -how clamping works -how to grip a board -physical idea -practice moulding, shaping, drilling, gripping, clamping -Very small -time consuming -easy to break This showed that if you drill the truck holes wrong it could ruin the board.
