I have recently started using this type of freeskates and I must admit that once I learn the technique they are *really fun* and also *very cool*

Pro tip: don't throw away the cardboard slip after you're done assembling. It can be useful if you ever want to swap out your decks in the future.

I ordered mine unassemble, which means there was no cardboard slip. What is it useful for? Is it a must-have when assembling the skates?

I like to put the grip tape on before screwing the deck on then punch holes for the screws so I can tighten or swap out the decks if I want to in the future

I am thinking about doing this as well. It's very normal (even standard, I think) for skateboards, so was surprised the video puts the griptape on top of the screws.

JMK I was thinking about suggesting an idea for free skates( but cheaper) would it ever be possible to make trucks and deck or just deck out of polycarbonate plastic ( it’s really strong ) same design, everything. I think it will hold up quite well and cut cost’s alot. Not to replace aluminium ones but to provide high quality, entry level freeskates for beginners who aren’t sure about spending $140 on freeskates yet. Just a idea.😊

For more precise grip tape placement, I peel back 1/2 of the backer and fold it out of the way, then align the non sticky side using two clothespins or spring clamps to get the exact placement. Then stick down the tape on the sticky side, remove the clamps, remove the rest of the backer and finish... I learned this when I was doing laser cut grip tape designs that needed exacting placement...

I got caught off guard with the directionality of the shock pads when I assembled mine. Only learned about it after I already had the grip on so now I'm just living with one of them being 'wrong'. I don't think it matters in actual use and nobody would know if you don't go looking for it, but the fact that they actually come with two corners cut off to match the shape of the trucks shows just how much attention to detail went into the skates during their design. I'll definitely keep it in mind if I change my grip at some point.
