WE SOAKED A POWELL PERALTA FLIGHT DECK IN NAIL POLISH REMOVER

The last time we soaked a skateboard in Nail Polish Remover, the experiment resulted in the wood turning into something similar to the shape of cooked bacon! Today, we test one of the most technologically advanced skateboards... the flight deck. How will the carbon fiber reinforced skateboard hold up to the harsh nail polish remover?! Check this video out and find out!

I love how Nigel felt terrible about buying up all the nail polish remover. Keep being you my dude.

[@lovinnubin]

That was such a wholesome thing, and he acknowledged that they were being bad ppl for that

[@glenmchargue5461]

I was going to write the same. I love it. He seems so nice, we need more people like him.

[@eliprenten7066]

You can fill up the empty spaces in the container next time, so the fluid rises higher without having to use more

[@xCaffeine_Fiend]

Big brain comment 👍👍

[@dominicromero14]

"What are you doing with all that nail polish remover?" "Have you ever seen that bathtub scene in breaking bad?"

[@treefrog2620]

I have the Andy Anderson flight deck and Ive skated in the heavy rain with it multiple times Ive had it for a year already. it still has pop and it's pretty cool how it literally wont break

[@sschmi07]

Braille's Daily Dad Joke #4: What do you call a man wearing a rug on his head? Matt.

[@robnickdabadventures3970]

Hey Nigel, I'm from Nova Scotia n was surprised to hear u call us out lol! Thanks , figured I'd say hey since I watch u guys alot n love you content!👌👌😎👌

[@V3v15c3r8]

Nigel can skate better with out wheels and trucks than I can on a complete in my wet dreams. Holy schnikes that was impressive.

[@daveburton8528]

I've been watching yall for like 4 or 5 years but I really wish yall would bring back battle boards that was so fun to watch

[@Analogy13]

Ypu guys are literally the best human biengs on the planet! I like sk8

[@Joseph_shredz]

Out of all the flight boards you can choose you choose the limited edition one why

[@brailleskateboarding]

Usually we just skate what gets sent to us

[@Joseph_shredz]

Oh that makes sense the color Way is trash anyways

[@him89]

I'm at where they just pulled it out and explained a regular board delamed. I'm guessing Powell uses the same resin as the carbon fiber piece for all the layers and acetone won't eat it like it does for the screen print on the graphic or the adhesive for the griptape. Just a guess, don't know their process. Could be higher quality wood or more processed for quality too so gets a better bond between the layers. Dunno. As always interesting vid boys!

[@steepstevemusic]

The costume fingerboard will be at the Braille house tomorrow!

[@Stonerolog1st]

What kind of resin does Powell Peralta Flightdeck use? Seems to have more chemical resistance than normal decks, would it work in a wood deck if so would it react the same or are the carbon fibers actually the reason? I'm curious

[@vorpalblades]

I'm not sure of the type, but a few companies use resin in wood decks. Creature and Madness do. I don't know if Santa Cruz does it on wood decks, they have the VX decks.

[@JohnSuave]

Okay now we need a series of videos soaking flight decks to see if anything will destroy them

[@PsychoticPanda_]

We need a review at Coeur d'Alene's downtown skatepark!! It's got some pretty big stuff for experienced riders and plenty of stuff for people to learn on. Still one of my favorite parks.

[@RezCat100]

Glo after that shinner was Contemplating about life with his arms crossed and everything. so funny

[@jazzqueen1]

crazy and cool idea for the skateboard Braille

[@roby2331]

Go to home depot, in the paint dept. they gave large jugs of muriatic acid… and save a small bottle.. when ur done melting the skate, spray left over amount thats been diluted with warm water on slippery floor, scrub with deck broom and wash off.. you can thank me later… test a spot.. its what we used on our park floors! ❤

[@neta6639]

I want to see a bearings race course, like marble racing, but with skateboard bearings

[@liambrown8074]

The flex on that deck looks normal. I ride a Flight deck and it's really springy compared to standard wood decks; it's almost like a gym springboard. Same for the hardware reinforcement plates sticking out. If I had to guess, I'd say there was probably a bit of damage around the edges where the wood soaked up the nail polish remover, but the core is fine.

[@brailleskateboarding]

Interesting

[@NickGuelker]

amazing, I wonder how a VX from Creature or Santa Cruz would hold up. I think VX is a sort of copycat tech. I've been riding Creature VX for a few years now and wonder how different they are.

[@romanbenin8944]

Shoutout nigel from nova scotia where the giants have unmentioned painted nails ahah

[@ImaginationHobbies]

Could it also be that you can't break wet wood? Or was it COMPLETELY dry?

[@thecatwrangler9448]

Did you skip the part where they showed the prior test on a regular wooden board? It’s carbon fiber lined

[@JakeDogg-RIP]

Use Acetone from a hardware shop, not “acetone free” nail polish remover! 👌😉

[@peter05767]

We really need that 1k limit skate wars .

[@Crossfirepyro2]

Built to last🔥🔥👍🏻👍🏻

[@forg0tten]

I wish you had laid the board onto a clean white T-shirt to try to transfer the graphic. Would have been one of a kind.

[@codethfn]

These videos are so cool

[@Ejazzle]

Bro that’s insaneeee

[@LeHeuZaHer]

I’d love to see if there is much of a difference when doing this test with a wood glue based deck, and an epoxy resin based one, when left in the acetone for 24 hours.

[@ryanrowe1975]

Really cool

[@smonkwad]

if anything maybe the flexibility adds more durability for it to take more of a beating, just like Professor Schmitt said, the board has give to it, gives and takes

[@cphVlwYa]

You guys know you can just buy gallon jugs of acetone (nail polish remover) at Home Depot or Lowe's right...?

[@owenschmidt346]

7:00 JD just downing takis 😂

[@lavidaestragica]

The giant nail monologue made the whole video.

[@johnsebastianvallejo7613]

I love you guys !

[@netmatrix75]

We told them years ago that nail polish remover is basically Acetone with added perfume in it YEARS AGO. You could buy acetone much cheaper and comes in bigger container from hardware stores easily. But these guys still don't listen. And the thing is Aaron Kyro builds houses!!! Surely he knows about this!!! Here is an example of Tik Tok dumb waayyy before Tik Tok became famous.

[@I-am-milky]

I think it is going to melt some of the graphic am I correct

[@Bigboigamerguy]

@BraileSkateboarding Carbon fiber is chemically stable, corrosion-resistant, and won't rust. That's why it works well in harsh environments. But strong oxidizing agents, such as hydrogen peroxide or sulfuric acid, may affect it. Likewise, epoxy resin is inert and won't rust or corrode.

[@chillidan5696]

This was a fun experiment to watch! ...but ooooooh boy, it was painful to watch xD I think my skateboard recoiled in pain hahaha

[@deadmoon5350]

I think you could have bought larger bottles of remover from a beauty supply shop they usually have pallet loads cause they sell to (salons Hair and nail)

[@VSPhotfries]

Or just pure acetone at the hardware store.

[@cvnate619ify]

No grip tape socks game of sk8

[@nathanbufet239]

Gabe can you do a double varial kickflip next video I think it's called a nightmare flip

[@BlindmanDru]

I was thinking the same thing as Gabe, I'm pretty sure the board will delam because the acetone will eat away the glue

[@waidebraaf2690]

Nigel is Hella baked in target. My eyes look the same in those fluorescent lights

[@WellImhighasl]

Lmao JD just bounced off lol

[@49thParzival]

Should've been playing the Titanic song as you set the board in the nail polish remover

[@SatanSupimpa]

Bury a skateboard for a month. You can do multiple boards in different kind of soils.

[@generationfire9290]

You guys did my video idea

[@Leave-mypage]

NOVA SCOTIA GANG!!! gotta find the giant

[@StoneAquatics]

Kinda weirdly short video they jumped down the three block and that was it? Usually they skate it for a while

[@sha190wn]

I’m from Nova Scotia it’s always weird hearing someone say it

[@danefuentes3877]

Ricta Clouds!

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

@0:30 'no mo don't..' Mo proceeds to ignore and manage. 😎 Is that guy older than Mo?

[@thatsuckyhalorevewer]

You guys should soak a board in MEK substitute

[@notsure6070]

u can buy acetone by the gallon at home depot. im sure all that was disposed of properly.

[@brailleskateboarding]

Of course

[@donnytucker]

You better acetone down that attitude! 😂

[@brailleskateboarding]

😂

[@megaflux7144]

why dont you just order a case or 2 from amazon or walmart online? not like they have a shortage.

[@curtisjacksons3027]

Could've skated It more and went up on the roof . Also.... Keep looking for the bungee 👀 and get more liquid nitro! 😅🔥

[@ImaginaryMachines]

So much cheaper to go to a hardware store and buy acetone by the gallon can

[@brailleskateboarding]

🫣

[@mr.freddyg77]

Definitely worth $110 for the deck.

[@LowbornCrew]

Make your own diy board

[@Erinnem]

I’m having major deja vu I swear y’all already did this or am I losing it?

[@jeffomalley6015]

Lol that thing could legit burst into flames if u get any static from that cement floor.

[@himebaughchris4026]

Gonna test Bucky Lasek's new Carbon Fiber trucks?

[@brentbarr371]

Hey brail I got an idea make a whole skateboard from tech decks

[@jakobmason]

Best drink with breaky is chocky milk for sure im not a coffe guy 🤢🤣🤷🏽‍♂️

[@davearthur514]

It hasn't altered the board because the carbon fibre and wood is soaked in epoxy resin which is waterproof so the acetone can't get in to loosen the wood.

[@jorgearnal2060]

Hi Braille team, please I am a big fan could you reply to this comment I love u guys!!

[@VSPhotfries]

Pure acetone by the gallon can would have been so much cheaper, but, ya know...

[@Riley-sn4wi]

Maybe the trucks helped it hold together? The other one didn’t have trucks on it

[@mandalorthedeaf1237]

just stopping at 2 minutes something and hoping the container melts, because it's the wrong plastic. XD

[@brailleskateboarding]

😂

[@aloysiusexpialidocious]

You could have gone to a hardware store and bought a couple gallon tubs of acetone for like 1/10th of what you just gave target for their entire stock of acetone.

[@junktrunk5333]

gabe just directly talking over nigel twice in a row smh

[@himebaughchris4026]

And Nobody will say if that is Robert Trujillo on that deck. 🤔

[@jeramiedutcher6720]

I really like the Powell Peralta team and boards. But, you cant let that board defeat you. DESTROY IT BY ANY MEANS!

[@jeffomalley6015]

Shoulda just got gallon cans from Walmart. Would be way cheaper.

[@lucassheppard8212]

I’m from scotia lmao 🤣 I don’t think we have giants here 😂 could be wrong though lol 😆

[@longerused2023]

I need one. I'm too heavy for normal boards

[@ManakSkates]

Flight decks and decks with carbon fiber use an epoxy resin as the adhesive where standard 7 ply maple decks use PVA wood glue which in most cases is water based. You can’t do a proper glue up with carbon fiber and wood glue, it has to be some form of epoxy. The epoxy resin isn’t effected by the nail polish remover like wood glue is. The wood glue just gets dissolved by it which is why the other video you did, the board looked like a lasagna. It all comes down to the adhesive.

[@HaxR3]

If they left it longer and used pure acetone rather than stuff with 4% water and oil content, the epoxy would have gone dusty and brittle eventually.

[@stefanrh1160]

Next time just go to Ace hardware and get a jerrycan of Acetone, it's LITERALLY the same thing... even if jusr for Nigel's sake.

[@Apr0x1m0]

You guys shouldve just asked for the stock in the back of the big bottles instead of grabbing all the little ones. Itll work out cheaper as well.

[@Heist80]

I was super interested in the total price of the nail polish remover for some reason. Lol

[@tucsinglek2042]

a gallon of acetone should have been cheaper at aarons favorite hardware store :-)

[@chelegere9343]

There are no giants with giant nails in Nova Scotia Nigel ... have you ever been here?

[@RezCat100]

Yo video idea mcnug or ak try to break the record for the longest time being in a Manuel it's only 1 min 16 seconds just imagine yall haven Guinness world record plac in the brail house

[@liamliam2604]

instead of buying nail polish remover you can just buy acetone its basically the same thing

[@megaflux7144]

they must be infusing the wood itself with cf.

[@micnoviggy2938]

You can buy acetone by the gallon at Home Depot

[@stephengrambsch4232]

I've always wondered why the example shady customer in any retail training video looks like a skater. After seeing your shelf clear skills, they might be onto something.

[@brailleskateboarding]

Shady customer?

[@uwuanimechan3780]

Guys you should try game of skate without a griptape

[@emperorpalpatine1469]

How can you even be legally allowed to purchase that much acetone

[@brailleskateboarding]

Good question

[@kickstab]

Shout out to the nova scotia giant, Angus MacAskill.

[@swageyre]

Can you guys create and skate a griptape skateboard?

[@JohnAvillaHerpetocultural]

But why not regrip it?

[@edihendiwhned]

Nice

[@avocadoarms358]

Braille Nail Salon 😂😂

[@SaltyE6]

Why didn't you just get those gallon bottles of acetone?

[@brailleskateboarding]

We just aren’t that smart honestly

[@xene6154]

A NEW VIDEOOO =01!1!!!!

[@LeSkateWA]

You know you can buy 4 litres of Acetone at any hardware store right? You couldve just bought 4 of them and thats already 16 litres...
