Polycarbonate is super tough, I'm not sure if it's still true but they used to make fighter jet canopies out of the stuff and it's definitely still used for riot shields. However, if you can get hold of some liquid nitrogen and chill that bad boy down to -40 it'll shatter like glass

I even drove over them with a forklift. Only at that point did the arms break off. I never did break the lenses.

You gotta remember that polycarbonate is "bullet proof." Who would skate this board? People nostalgic for the 60s and 70s era of skating. Tricks such as the Hang 10 and handstand and Bert slide were invented on boards like this. And carving on banks. Boards of this shape are also where pool skating started. The wheels on this one are a bit wide for pool skating tho. Very much for carving and downhilling and slalom.

Me recuerda una skate normal que yo tenía hace 12 años, era en madera pero estaba así de flexible y me gustaba usarla porque era muy raro.

I started out on a plastic board. I learned how to ollie and grind etc... Later on I bought some used boards off people. When I was around 15, I walked into a pro skate shop and picked out a brand new board trucks wheels etc.. and paid with cash. It was the best feeling in the world, by this time hardly anyone skated, we had to skate on the streets and in parking lots and people chased us all day. We made a half pipe in my cousins barn on the top floor one summer and that was a lot of fun when the hay wasn't in the barn.

crazy, actually bought this for my niece and my nephews and I were the ones riding it haha edit: to give clarity, I showed them "don't break the glass board" it was destiny that you made this video 😂

if it had an aluminum shank spanning the two trucks, that would eliminate the flex and allow them to make a full size board. add some grip tape or just embed grit directly into the plastic and you would have an indestructible board that performs just like traditional wood. i suspect it's heavier than a normal board, but a few lightening holes could be drilled into it as necessary to bring it back down to a normal weight.

Yeah, it's one of their false outcomes. If you lean like a normal person, you don't get more water from the front in vertical rain but it's simple maths, if you walk like a snail, you get soaking wet in the lightest rain, if you go lightspeed in a planking position, you gather all the water that is in level with your head and shoulders. That's the bare minimum rain you have, unless you are smaller than 2mm and you can predict where the raindrops fall and completely avoid them. But anyone who actually tried to both run and walk in real-life rain knows that running is less pleasant at the moment but you only get your upper torso wet running as opposed to get soaking wet walking.

These guys just learned why the polycarbonate compound was created by NASA to use in the windshield of their space shuttles and then moved on to be used in the windows of race cars. It is the toughest solid clear substance on earth currently!! Some companies even make their bulletproof windows for cars out of straight polycarbonate. This stuff is incredible. I think it would be really cool to see a set of skate trucks and wheels made out of straight polycarbonate as well.
