Really old skateboard.?

Question

I just got a really old skate board.but it was free.:). but it has no grip tape(i can fix that), and is really beat up. the ends of the deck are flat, the bottom of the trucks have no paint, the wheels are not recognizable. But its a consolidated deck, royal trucks, abec 7 bearings, so i would like to use it. its a bit creaky as well. do you think it could still be used with a little fixing up.also the ends of the deck is kinda splintered.like, the upper half of the wood is off a little bit.no rust though. plz help!

Answer 1

fixing it up shouldnt be hard. sanding it down to a smooth board would really help. the edges and etc. that sounds like a decent board, back wen it was new. haha. um, u wanna make it a customized board? trim it to a unique shape and have fun with it. big wheels-small board. i have one of those. my board broke off at the top where yours is flat, so i just sadn, sand, trim, trim.
