finishing the unfinished explanation from 2 years ago Laughing

...he means use the 1 of the halves as an indo board..like the truck would be dead center. and you would use it like the rubber thing on the real indo boards

that gave me an idea though, instead of cutting it in half, couldn't you just drill holes in the middle of the board, and put a truck and wheels straight in the middle. so instead of having half a board you would have the whole thing

just buy a indo board, you wont be sorry. Get a long kicktail it will help you alot. I started riding for them about a year ago and Ive noticed my balance and switch tricks are getting better for wave riding im sure it will help alot for behind a boat or get a skatedeck those are the ones that will give you the most balance because there is concave from rail to rail and not just nose to tail.

i dont know what the real ones are made out of but i made one with a pvc pipe and a board and it worked good and super easy and cheap. although i couldnt pop tricks cause it was flat, so i would just use an old skate deck

yeah but be careful because you will be able to move like your sliding on the lip of a wake except you wont have water under you it will be solid ground. Also around the roller of a indo roller is 3 pieces of grip 1 in the middle and 2 on the outsides. I would recommend buying one but if worse comes to worse build your own. I would also get a smaller roler for the skate decks you will be able to throw tricks easier since its closer to the ground so bailing wont be crazy.
