Skateboard Wall Mount

Put em up!

There’s a moment in everyone’s life where they say to themselves, “Hey, why didn’t I think of that?” At Eduskate boardshop they have quite a few decks mounted on the shop walls in this fashion and it really is a great idea. I’m fairly confident I could put a deck on a wall like this in under a minute if there was reason to do so. The cost of mounting one deck, should be less than $0.25 doing this too.

Supplies:

A nail with a wide head and a zip tie. I chose releasable zip ties that can be reused and roofing nails.

We’ll be mounting this deck vertically, but you can do this twice and mount a deck horizontally if you choose.

Step One: Nailing.

Hammer your nail into the wall where you want the deck to hang. It doesn’t HAVE to be on a stud but that would be ideal. (Keep in mind that the nail is where the top two truck holes will be.)

Step Two: Deck Prep.

Loop the zip tie through with the lock on the grip side.
Loop it back through the second hole.
Tighten the tie so that it stays together, we’ll do more later.

Step Three: Mount it.

Hook the loop around the nail head. Tighten the zip tie until it’s secure.

Finished!

I can’t say enough good things about this. You can mount decks both vertically and horizontally, it’s incredibly easy to rearrange the decks and the cost is nearly nothing.
