WELCOME to based boards

At Based Boards, our mission is to bring together the worlds of longboarding and artistic expression to create shredable art. We believe that longboards are not just meant for riding, but can also serve as a canvas for creativity. With each meticulously handcrafted board, we strive to blend functionality with aesthetics, allowing riders to embrace their individuality and showcase their own unique style. We infuse each deck with vibrant colors, intricate designs, and bold graphics, turning them into works of art that can be beautifully shredded through every hill bomb and slide. By combining the thrill of longboarding with the beauty of art, we aim to inspire both riders and art enthusiasts to push their boundaries, break through limitations, and truly experience the fusion of freedom and creativity.

Our Services

  • Get ready to elevate your ride with Custom Board Wraps, where old meets new in the most stylish way possible! Our board wraps aren't just a cosmetic upgrade; we encase your board with premium fiberglass or composite materials, giving it a whole new lease on life. Think of it as a complete board rebirth, adding strength, durability, and of course, a fresh look that will turn heads on every downhill run or casual cruise.

    Whether you're craving a smooth matte finish, a bold graphic upgrade, or just that sleek, futuristic feel, our custom wraps let you reinvent your ride without losing the soul of the board underneath

  • Ever look at your longboard and think, “You know, this deck could use a little spice”? Well, introducing Custom Board Chops, where we take your trusty longboard and give it a wild, new shape! Whether you want to transform that old board into a compact cruiser, a funky fish-tail, or something that screams "never seen before", we’ve got you covered.

    Our board-chopping wizards (Daddy Dave) will reshape your deck into a totally fresh form that’s as daring as your riding style. Want sharp curves for tight turns? Done. How about a completely wacky shape that makes heads turn on the hill? Absolutely! And I don’t just chop haphazardly—I make sure your new creation stays durable, rideable, and smooth as ever.

    No two chopped boards are the same, because hey, why should they be? Let’s take your board from alright to absolutely rad one chop at a time

  • Is your longboard looking a little rough around the edges? Scuffs, scratches, and wear got it feeling more like a relic than a ride? Fear not! Our Board Refurbishing service is here to breathe new life into your trusty steed and get it back to turning heads (and carving streets) in no time.

    I sand, shine, and spruce up your board to make it look like it just rolled off the production line—whether it needs a fresh coat of lacquer, some wheel well touch-ups, or just a little love for those battle scars. I’ll restore its ride and reignite that fresh-deck feeling, while keeping all the character that makes your board yours.

    Think of it as a spa day for your longboard, with the works—deck polishing, grip tape revamping, wheel tuning, you name it. Your ride will be smoother, shinier, and ready to take on the world again.
