The Zeppelin pintail is my daily ride for almost a year now and I love carving and dancing with it. The Pink Cat is one I made my daughter of 6. The Barbapapa is my trickboard.
If you've got any questions how I did things don't be shy to ask.

I'm planning on making one so I'm looking at different methods.
What wood was used?
Thanks :D
The other ones where glued almost the same. With the "barbatruuk" I used three layers plywood of 4mm, of which one was birch and the up, and undersides oak.
As a mold I just used a big plank on which I screw timber blocks at the ends for nose and tail, end two little curved battens at the sides for concave. I pressed it with a big block of wood in the middle with some big clamps.
However I said I didn't like epoxy I came back from that and nowadays I work with it, even did some boards with vaccuumforming. To the above boards, apart from the cat, I added a layer of glassfiber and epoxy on the bottom but it isn't nescesary for a nice board.
Let me know if you stil have questions and don't hesitate to show what you've made in the end.
Well I used the thoothless method. with the screws and weight on it. The board is made of two 6mm birch plywood with PU D4 glue. With quite some camber. It shows almost no failure after almost a year good using. Its even still very bouncy. I say almost no failure because I noticed some splintering on the underside lately. Don't know if thats bruising from curbs or the upper fineer is delaminating but it is certainly no delaminating of my glueing.
If you meant what I've learned concerning the skating. Well, I'm not much of a tricker and usually use the board for distances and fun cruising. I've learned some crosstepping, pirouettes and other small stuff though.
I used a picture of myself which I "shopped" in PS and the Zeppelin was a picture from the internet. Printed them out mirrored and than copied them. The made transfers from them.
