I figure it would be kinda dumb to steal a graphic from a company so I am gonna create my own design. I got the painting part down but i don't know how to seal it... Does anyone know what type of stuff i should use to keep my skate from getting all scratched up and to keep it waterproof?

i painted my new skate. why would you paint an old one? you wouldnt use an old one except for rails and crap and then the paint comes off

have you guys ever had a wakeskate sink? cuz when i was jumpin into the water it would go under then take a long time to come up... if there was like a crack and the wood soaked up water do you think it would sink???
