In this video I walk you through a full, start-to-finish skateboard setup the same way I do my own builds. I cover every step in order: putting on and trimming grip tape, mounting your trucks with the right hardware, pressing bearings into your wheels, and finally getting your wheels on your trucks so the board rolls smooth and feels right. If you’ve ever been intimidated by building a board, this is the “do it once and you’ll never worry again” guide. I also break down the sizing side of things so you’re not just copying a random setup—you actually understand what you’re buying. I talk about how different component sizes affect the feel (deck, trucks, wheels, and hardware), and I share little tips that make the process cleaner and less frustrating, especially when you’re cutting grip or seating bearings. The goal is simple: get you on a solid, dialed setup so you can focus on progression instead of fighting your gear.
