I know for the effort and the price this is not so much an option, but I have been buying sale boards, mainly bad graphics that are marked down, from companies that use good wood and then scraping the graphic off with a razor blade, so I get the best of both worlds.

This is the most recent one:

Sickk dude. Ive been doing this with Tactics shop boards, they're BBS wood and actually found one thats the same shape as an AntiHero board that I really liked. Usually, ill use a hand sander/sandpaper and then hit it with a Rustoleum clear coat after and its mintt.

I'm coming off of skating an 8.5 blank from Skate warehouse that was made by BBS. I've been skating medium and high concave decks but I'd like to go with a really mellow blank to switch up a little. Any suggestions?

@Mbrimson88 i want to do this. Urs look good.  So I got two R7 Enjoi boards on sale with pretty minimal graphics

That’s probably the easiest graphic to do, don’t know what size you’re riding but there are some other Enjoi graphics floating around with pretty minimal shit too

[TwisT]

Enjoi box panda decks are what you’re looking for

Thought you guys might appreciate a follow up post.

Sorry if viewing pics like this is a bit of a pain, but it is easier for me to have them all together in this sort of format.

Happy to help with any questions or other info as well.


Boards I have blanked.

In looking back over pics as well as getting some boards out, I have blanked almost ten of these current boards from various brands including Baker, Birdhouse, Element and others, all on the same wood, from the BBS woodshop.

Some I have left blank, others stickered up, some painted but for all of them, I am more stoked on nice stains than anything else. Not so much a fan of a natural bottom layer, or even some stains, but having painted and used those boards, I am more stoked now.

Helps they are just the right shape, concave and usually on sale so it doesn't matter what the original graphic was.

As far as blanking them, I found using a nice clean razor blade is best, holding the blade almost vertical on a flat board, scraping at the graphic just taking the paint off but not the varnish layer underneath and keeps the boards still nicely sealed, clean and good to use.

I do have a bit more time these days to do that, so it is not a worry now to do a whole board in a short while, but took a few boards to get the technique going nicely.

Anyway that is just a bit of trivia and fun.

Well worth it for the good times on my boards.

That’s actually pretty rad, better than most of their actual graphics. I’ve been wanting to try an R7 board and might have to get this.

A blank logo deck,  That’s an Oxymoron.

I saw these a while back, had to laugh. But at the same time they literally made a board with a 3 inch graphic that could’ve been instead of these boards and they’d probably sell more

Pennswood is doing this new spinning paint drip method.  Not sure if they count as blank but the hydro dipped ones were pretty popular a while back so figured I’d share.

That is amazing!

I copied your post to the Woodshop thread too.

Thanks for posting.
