3D Printed Skateboard

In 2013, CGTrader and 3DPRINTUK hosted a 3D printing design competition. Sam Abbott won the competition with a portfolio of 3D printed designs, and in turn won an Ultimaker 3D printer. Soon after, Sam took on a more ambitious project, designing and producing the world's first 3D printed twin tip skateboard.

From afar, the 3D-printed, twin-lipped skateboard printed by 3D Print UK may appear to sport an unusual texture, but it's actually a crazy collage of wacky creatures adorning the backside. The impressive deck measures 30.5 inches wide, 6.8 inches deep, and about 2 inches high.

3D Print UK founder Nick Allen mentions that the board is more an art piece than an actual method of transportation, but it does ride.
