Homemade Tech Decks

Want to finger skate but can't afford tech decks? Well, have I got a solution for you!

How to build a homemade tech deck:

You need:
8 1/2-by-11-inch sheet of paper
Tape

1. • 1

     Place a piece of paper on a hard surface, horizontally.
     

   • 2

     Fold the sheet 'hamburger style', in half.
     

   • 3

     Bring the bottom side of the paper up so that it is even with the top edge. Crease the fold with your finger.

   • 4

     Bring the left side of the paper over to the right side again and crease the fold so that the paper is folded in half. Repeat this action again to reduce the paper in half.

   • 5

     Place two pieces of adhesive tape on the ends of the paper to hold the halves in place. Do the same for the long edge on the right side to hold it shut.

   • 6

     Grab the bottom edge of the paper and fold it up 1/2-inch and crease the fold. Do the same for the top edge of the paper. These folds will slowly move to a more upright position and serve as the skateboard's tail and nose.

   • 7

     Turn the paper skateboard over and apply a few strips of the adhesive tape along the bottom side of the board. Be sure to leave no part of the paper exposed on this bottom side. Flip the board back over and use your fingers to glide it along any surface.
