Cheap hacks to upgrade your tech deck!

[@jonathanplays901]

Tech decks can be 2 things. 1. Miniature skateboard 2. (If you take off the wheels trucks and grip tape) it can also be a miniature snowboard.

[@LuhKranky15]

Ain't ni way bro

[@Freizavr]

And if you tie a string in a hole you have something to do in the car so basically a airboard

[@justthenormal489]

For the grip you can put it under a hairdryer to make it easier to remove

[@wizard9027]

thanks so much pheonix and im gonna give you a tip: if you have a glue gun and silicon stick you can glue the whole top part of your teck deck and it wil be very grippy so pls try it, its my own tip

[@PhoenixsWorldVideos]

Wait that actually sounds genius. is that instead of griptape? Also where do I get silicone sticks? This could be in a part 2 video if I can get some and I'll credit you

[@xand3r358]

@@PhoenixsWorldVideos they're just the glue stick you put in the hot glue gun

[@eversoslightly9932]

I do the same regarding bushings. I use the thicker rubber bracelets and only use the bushing i make from them as bottom bushings. Why? If you use the rubber for both bushings (top & bottom) it give too much flex when tightened normally (tip of kingpin barely passing the nut) and if you try to tighten it more the rubber flexes and the kingpin sticks out way too much. So i use rubber on the bottom, hard plastic stock bushings on top. Gets perfect tightness (no over hanging kingpin) and flex still. Even inverting the kin pin doesn’t help with doing both upper and lowers in rubber as you still have to over tighten it, and then the truck base won’t sit flush with the deck. Though you could file the kingpin down i suppose, would be a pain if not done right as the nuts might not thread back on.

so i was just vibing with my tech dech bored while watching this looking for ways to improve my board, and i landed my 1st kickflip

[@8bitsamurai6]

Great vid. In my experience alot of bearing wheels dont work with the tech deck trucks unless you round the ends near the pins down like most modern trucks are now. Also reshaping a techdeck seems to make it alot closer to a pro style imo. Which is fun to do since tech deck come in alot of nice brands and styles.

[@filice]

Id say using a techdeck board would probably prevent you from breaking/snapping it since its plastic and strong.

[@digotrigo9631]

You can also get a lighter and put it on the sides tail and nose and push it up a little for more pop

[@epicaug3755]

I have a tech deck I didn’t put the sand paper on and know I’m very good at techniques to keep my fingers very flat and when I go in a move curve them

[@lyndenreynolds1728]

This helped me so much Phoenix

[@brodyrichard263]

I just buy a just sheet of in nboard skateboard grip tape and cut like a thousand sheets for all my boards and it works amazing also just use a lighter to warm up tape the before removing and you won't have any glue residue

[@warschdule]

I do not recommend modifying the tech deck as It could ruin it Plus It dosn’t make sense in the first place why you would change it

[@warschdule]

The wheels and stuff should be fine to modify though

[@Janred05]

I prefer tech deck board because you can wash it all the time

[@Twpk52]

Anyone know we’re u can buy tech deck tools by thenself

[@bigboyzandon]

great video man keep up the great work very helpful 👍

[@boxii2065]

Just go buy a close up fingerboard. They have a wooden deck , bearings on their wheels , foamy griptape rubber premium bushings , china trucks and they only cost like 20$

Softer wheels are more grippy but may stick on slides. Most urethane wheels (like my clear ones) are basically as hard as plastic but roll smoother

[@e25n29]

what is that pro fingerboard you have its awesome!

Do you know where I can buy all the prices of a fingerboard separately, I want to build my own out of wood but I can’t find all the tiny peices

[@PhoenixsWorldVideos]

Are you looking for wood veneer strips to press a deck? You can get all the other parts from any major fingerboard website and nuts and bolts should come included. Also some sites can tell you which parts fit together

[@mxrkos]

Where can I get this grip tape and how is it called

[@beemelonhead1]

Where do you get the foam for grip? Do I need to order from finger board sites or is there some sort of foam strip I can get at the local arts and crafts store and cut to fit?

[@PhoenixsWorldVideos]

I bought a pack of pre cut rectangles of foam grip from fingerboardstore.de as I was getting parts shipped from there anyway, but you can get it from a bunch of different fingerboard sites for about the same price (custom designs on it are more expensive). Also you can buy in bulk if you look up "Neoprene Tape" - just make sure its as wide as your board and not too thick. I've never tried it but had it recommended.
