Beater board fix-up - Waiting for good weather


So I saw this video on youtube of a dude spray paining up an old beater board and figured I'd follow it with my own version.

The Paint Shop Video
http://www.surfline.com/video/webisodes/the-paint-shop-with-...

Cut some front foot strap inserts and snagged a cheap stomp pad on ebay....


Old Board


In works


After


I used Krylon Appliance Epoxy spray and hit the vinyl cutter with similar trace of stomp pad graphic.

Total time - 3 hrs
Total cost - aprox $40

ROCK ON!!

How do you put the strap on for the front foot? I have a board that I'd love to put a strap on, but can't find any info on how to do it really. Is it just a stick on deal or do you have to drill holes and epoxy inserts in so that you can screw the foot straps in? Thanks and that thing looks super rad!
