Shaun White, who snowboards on the Burton team, won the gold medal in the 2006 Winter Olympics. He’s been skateboarding professionally since 1999, and was the first to win gold medals in the Summer and Winter X games, and the only athlete to achieve top honors in the Summer and Winter Dew cups in the same year.

In addition to skating and snowboarding for the Birdhouse and Burton teams, Shaun White is one of the highest paid athletes in action sports thanks to lucrative endorsement deals with Target, Hewlett-Packard, Oakley, and Red Bull.

Here are some step-by-step instructions for assembling your new complete skateboard:

Here’s what you’ll need:

Gripped skateboard deck
Skateboard hardware
Skateboard trucks (2)
Skateboard bearings (2 for each wheel, 8 total)
Skateboard wheels (4)
Screwdriver
Skate tool

If you haven’t done so already, pop through the screw holes in your deck. There should be eight holes total. Insert a screw into each hole.

With the large bolt (kingpin) facing the center of the deck, attach the truck to the screws. Tighten the bolts using a screwdriver and skate tool. Repeat for the second truck.

Carefully remove the nut and two washers from the truck axle. Put them aside.

Insert the bearings into each wheel by first placing the bearing on the truck axle with the metal side down. Put the wheel onto the axle and press to insert the bearing. Repeat on both sides for each wheel.

To attach the wheels, place one of the washers onto the truck first followed the complete wheel and the second washer. Use a skate tool to secure the wheel with a nut. Repeat for the other three wheels.

Note: The nut should be tight enough to securely hold the wheel, but loose enough that the wheel can still spin easily.

New to building your own complete skateboard? Warehouse Skateboards just uploaded some instructional videos to make sure you get your gear together the right way. Even pros might learn some helpful tricks for fast and easy skateboard assembly. Check it out!

Here’s what you’ll need:

Skateboard Deck
Skateboard Grip tape
File or Screwdriver
Razor blade or box cutter (Kids, you’ll need a parent or guardian to help you!)

If your deck has a graphic on the top, you can cut it out of your grip tape so you’ll be able to see it when your board is gripped. The easiest way to apply grip tape, though, is to apply it to the entire top of your board.

After you’ve removed the paper backing, use it to cover the rough side of the grip tape. This will protect your hands when you’re smoothing it onto your board.

Hold the grip tape over the board, and carefully center it. Let the grip tape sag a little in the middle so the center will adhere first. Once the center is adhered, carefully adhere the edges from the center out. Use extreme caution here as grip tape is very sticky. Once the grip tape sticks, it’s very hard to remove. If you don’t center it before adhering it, you could end up with an edge with no grip tape.

Carefully smooth the grip tape onto the deck from the center out to remove air bubbles.

Use a metal file or the metal shaft of a screwdriver to scrape around the edges of the skateboard deck. Rub hard until the grains are worn off, leaving a white outline on the grip tape that outlines the edges of the board.

To cut away the excess grip tape, hold a razor blade at a 45-degree angle and cut from the bottom up. Starting at the nose or tail, follow the white outline and run the blade around the edge of the skateboard deck to remove the extra grip tape.

To smooth out the rough edges, run a metal file around the edges of the board.

Use a screwdriver to poke holes through the grip tape where the trucks will be mounted.
