Make your own skate deck from scratch
This is a two part workshop hosted by Skate to the MAX, each session lasts for four hours and at the end each participant will go home with their own skate deck! With the help from Roarockit Europe these two workshops aim to provide you with enough knowledge and practical skills to go and press more skateboard decks at home.
4th February - There will be a demonstration and explanation of the process of board building, you'll glue-up and vacuum press your own deck.
11th February - You will take your deck out of the press, sand and add the finishing touches to your deck.
Ten spaces available!

Tracey Swan
"SKATEtotheMAX was set up following the sudden death of our son and brother Max Hamilton after falling from his skateboard in 2019. Our aim is to provide support and inspire young and old skateboarders to make a conscious decision to wear protective gear. We create a safe, fun environment to make your own skateboard deck whilst learning about safety while skateboarding.
James Clapp
James joined SKATEtotheMAX in 2020. As Tracey’s life partner, involvement in such a good cause was inevitable. James' knowledge in engineering and his passion for teaching supports both young and old learn new skills in every board that is pressed.
