HOW TO APPLY ZAP SKIMBOARDS ACE 56 CUBE TRACTION PAD SKIMBOARDING

[@angelmarrero6270]

i just got a early christmas present which was a boomhower Zap board. With traction pads and this is the first legit skimboard i got and this video helped me a bunch to apply the pads THANKS!!!

[@TheRykerDane]

Awesome, have fun!

[@JerrysJets]

Helpful video. Thanks!

[@christopher6196]

Why did you guys draw the lines twice? Coulda just wiped the board down before hand

[@lexify7781]

After you sand the board their is debris

[@Pepeshogun1]

Instead of drawing with sharpie we took a fishing line and taped it from the tail to the nose and put the things on the fishing line then you pull out the fishing line or if it doing come out take players or scisors and cut it as much as you can

[@TheRykerDane]

thats a great idea, nice!

[@dantescalia8745]

This really helped thanks

[@TheRykerDane]

No problem!

[@johnwilliams5538]

Very detailed thank you

[@TeddyParker]

As somebody who just sticks them on roughly in the middle and stacks textbooks on them overnight, this video is definitely a better way to do it lol

[@shellycahoon4231]

I leaned that you can use a blow dryer to make it stick better

[@TheRykerDane]

thanks for the info

[@fulboy21]

Hey, can you do a video ridinfg the board?

[@TheRykerDane]

Yep for sure!

[@fulboy21]

Would really appreciate it.

[@lukeybalukey285]

do you need the front var

[@TheRykerDane]

personal preference for traction

[@adityavikramrajawat]

Is the masking tape really needed?

[@lionfish4743]

Adityavikram Rajawat no

[@TheRykerDane]

not really

[@VideoProductions-zi3rl]

nice :)

[@alexanderrivette6235]

Why would you need to mark it twice?

[@pblsk8erboi]

Owned both a Zap and Exile. Trust Exile. Much better ride.

[@nateitscake88]

Call me crazy but I put grip tape on my front! I've been riding this Zap Ace 52 for a while now and haven't ever torn up my foot. I do have a creature of leisure pad on the back. But that grip tape on the front works like a charm.

[@TheRykerDane]

nice!

[@gavinsoares4674]

Thanks for the tips

[@brunoizzo1507]

24h or 48h are necessary?

[@charliev9455]

Yes, to give time for the glue to really stick

[@martinbrown7918]

What kind of alcohol did you use?

[@TheRykerDane]

just rubbing alcohol

[@ryanb4051]

Do u need to sand it before putting the pads on? I surf and u never have to sand ur boards but I guess it's different with a skimboard? Just asking if it's necessary👍🏼

[@TheRykerDane]

It just roughs up the surface to make sure the pad sticks good and won't peel off easily. But for sure make sure you clean it
