This skateboard is my newest printing endeavor, after being given access to these monster-sized printers with a large print bed at my work. I designed this to fully take up the width of the print bed, but also included some models that can be printed on smaller printers, but will need to have 12 mm rods (link included below), and CA glue to hold them together.
The board holds up to riding pretty well but make sure you follow my aforementioned print settings, that way it will hold your weight. You may hear some crackling sounds when the board is flexed, that's most likely your infill breaking and may mean you need to print a more dense infill, or at a thicker linewidth or higher flow rate.
Be aware that this is a long print, and needs to have a lot of strength or it won't work, but when it is done and you have it all finished up, it does work and his pretty fun to ride, provided you know how to ride a penny board.
