Paul Schmitt Explains How Skateboards Are Made

[@deckmonkey1459]

The reason Crob is so good is because he gets special, special, special boards.

[@armin38822]

He should make a graphic like that. A C-Rob Chocolate board that says '' SPECIAL,SPECIAL,SPECIAL BOARD ''

I know Paul from way back in the day with Schmitt stix before H- Street I was a buddy of Magnuson....

[@obiwanjermobi]

[@EoiFirst]

Super interesting ! I love the persona

[@arsinyx]

Schmitt is fabulous

[@coach7136]

Big Chapman name drop fuck yeah!

[@Utubereefer]

Where the nine club boards at?!?!?!? 🛹

[@landonsquires4207]

My old friend john had his Saturday warehouse boards made by ps stix. The shape was like a FA board and had the ps laser engraving but Doc schmidt said he doesn't deal with shop boards 🤔 I am confusion

[@enjoiandrew69]

I think Saturday started as a board company and the shop and subsequent park all followed it starting as a board company. Good to see another Charlotte homie!

[@carsonketcher2340]

So informative. Very good business insights.

[@mwboost]

I like the way dwindle presses boards. Well Almost anyway. Single board press instead of stacking. If they still do it that way?

[@Garanon5]

The man has a lab coat on. You know he's legit.

[@beetee420]

Pauly pressed it

[@typerightseesight]

I wanna hear from this guy about what size board I should ride at 6 foot tall.. I feel like he would know better than me lol. I ve been skating 20 years and still am not sure what size truck to skate.

[@ronaldhickman9953]

9.5.....16 in wheel base and 169s or something in that range....60- 62 mm wheels will keep you on top of the game......SKATE LIKE A MAN !!!

[@ExoticTurtle3]

It's all preference. Do not listen to the other guy, those specks are not up to date, unless your skating mega

[@typerightseesight]

@@ExoticTurtle3 i know hes nuts.. lol. to me its mostly because i skated lows until i outgrew them and now all the trucks that im compatible with feel like big heavy duty mega ramp trucks and all i wanna do is techy ledge stuff like when I was a kid lol

[@ExoticTurtle3]

@@typerightseesight tensors have always been the tech truck imo. They are always going lighter and lower every chance they get

[@gonzo13ist]

I would like to know what brands Paul makes.

[@steebags]

Almost all brands

[@technolange651]

Here's the slap woodshop link. All PS Stix brands are listed. www.slapmagazine.com/index.php?topic=103057.0

[@MrJackandEmily]

Would be nice to see a recent version..

[@Backlashed]

I know he does Roger and Street Plant, probably a lot more.

[@gabantromen]

they shud do an episode inside PsStix woodshop..

[@typerightseesight]

how does somebody who works a factory job at ups or whatever convert to making skateboards for a living im 32 and have been skating since i was 12 this would be such a transition for me.. i mean i grew up sponsored with drama pfaff i just wanna make boards!

[@pm2007est]

Send me 20 boards made of bamboo and some fiberglass or something

[@tsijr915]

There's no such thing as bamboo boards. Its just 1 or 2 ply on top. Its a gimmick.

[@halfcurbs]

Does he need some more employees?

[@destroyerdestroy87]

he lied he does do shop boards. south bay skates has them in torrance ca. i have one.

[@MichaelaBrooke18]

Super educational!! Thanks guys!! #9gang lifer

[@ER_aka_RAM]

Roger gave away his Slap Mag Moderator status by mumbling BBS! Kook move Dude 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@loxahwatukee]

this is an interesting look at 'schools' paul wears the shoes of the brilliant engineer, while the interviewers wear the shoes of the stoner there are many schools, old is one of many, and further, there are many old schools paul transcends the schools, he is science the interviewers are just stoners, in school

[@gravitykat1100]

And I wear the shoes of the Nike

[@Fausto_4841]

how are you going to say "2... 2 and a half summers ago" what does that mean? two years and a winter? or like, two years and then middle of summer july 15th?

[@tsijr915]

Your 2nd....2nd and half guess was right

[@bravotipo9037]

Its' either him or chapman on the east coast. at leas he makes them in mexico which IS WAY BETTER than those made in CHINA

[@FouglassDir]

Did Bro switch the Formula up yet. They are doodoo

[@leomartinez1213]

Ask him about the hardest wood. Hard rock maple or???

[@erics.4113]

There are harder woods than maple but they are going to be heavier, way more expensive and much harder to route and machine. Plus you wouldn't want a completely rigid deck. The snap and flex is what you want.

[@leomartinez1213]

[@marqqqddr]

itz the kfc guy right?

[@aidanmandude]

Weird how he doesn't work with smaller board brands... Maybe that's why WELCOME is leading the market in unique shapes. Too many skate companies choose the mighty dollar over the evolution of the art.

[@dirtysteeez]

PS Stix (this guy's company) makes Welcome boards actually

[@reup4023]

If you want to confirm without checking a deck in hand, Skatewarehouse . com, they show the top of the deck, it's engraved at the front truck mounting holes "Hand crafted by PS Stix"

[@muttway]

This dude sounds so uninformed for who he is and what he does. And so full of him self. Keeps talking like he’s the only one working there. “I do it” “i make it” “I tune it” Knows no terminology for board building or wood work.
