How to avoid pressure cracks on skateboard

June 15, 2020

How to avoid pressure cracks on skateboards?

 Pressure cracks are usually formed on the board when the bolts are tighten too tightly. It leaves very less room for the board to suck in the impact while doing tricks. Even humidity plays a role in creating pressure cracks. As wood expands/contracts based on humidity level, if you tighten the nuts too tight it'll create a crack if there is pressure being built up. The pressure cracks are usually formed near the bolts.

Pressure crack view 2To avoid pressure cracks first thing is do not over tighten the nuts and bolts which mounts the truck on the deck. Give some breathing space for the hardware to suck in the impact while doing tricks. Another very effective solution is to use riser pads(Rubber ones). Riser pads acts as suspension for the skateboard and helps in absorbing most of the impact.  If you take care of the above things you'll avoid developing pressure cracks to a large extent for sure. Do not keep your board in damp/wet areas or where there is more humidity.

Rajasthan - There’s a big skatepark called “Desert Dolphin” in the middle of a desert.  It was built in 2018 by a group of skatepark builders and skaters called 100ramps. The park takes up 14000 sq.ft. of land and looks extremely fun to skate. The skatepark consists of about 70% transition and 30% street obstacles. It can be divided into two halves: The “big” half has a large bowl with 3 sections of varying depths, two tall extensions for boosting airs or doing stalls, and a spine for doing transfers. The “smaller” half has a mellower bowl with a hubba and a handrail going into it. There’s a perfect euro gap, a quarter pipe on the outer part of the bow

Pro-Life Skatepark (Meghalaya)- is one of the two skateparks located in the cloudy mountains of Shillong. It’s incredible to even think that skateboarding exists amongst the roller coaster like geographical terrain of Meghalaya. Only a few warriors are brave enough to skate in such a tough environment and it is them who built Pro-Life Skatepark. They are members of the local skate crew called Hucko.
