Hi BajaBlanca,

What is your timeframe of needing these? Also, do you need to have full set-up's or can you get by with skate board deck's that do not include the trucks, bearings, wheels etc. I help a kid that is a pro street skater and he has his own line of boards. Can probably get blank board decks very easy and may take a little longer to get full set-up's (truck,s, bearings, wheels etc) from his other sponsors.

Is this going to a recognized non-profit charity by chance? If not, let me know the nature of who they would be going to.

Please let me know and will see if we can help out on this.

Good-luck!!

wow....any part of any skateboard is appreciated, decks would be great ....

it is a yearlong project - all of 2011 - so depending on where you are lookingandbuying, we can figure something out.

My mom lives in san diego and right now is traveling but will return May 1 -

we are not non profit yet - after I get my citizenship all squared away, I wil work on that !!

thanks again for offering to help - the kids are really neat in our little village and they really7 really need an outlet for all their energy !!

When I was a kid, we made our own skateboards with what was left over after building our Soapbox Derby race cars. :bounce:

Come to think of it, our skateboards were called scooters because they had a post up front the hang on to.

Thems was the days.

Nah....those were country toys. I was raised at the beach. Our really favorite toy was a Drop Line for fishing off the docks.
When I got older, we graduated to Electric Blasting Caps. :biggrin:
