Default OT HDPE/UHMW polyethylene?

A second idea might be to get a 1/4 inch sheet larger than the whole board,
remove the axel trucks and form the PE over the bottom of the board. When
cool, trim the edge level with the top of the board, drill holes for the
trucks and screw them back on. This will make the whole bottom of the board
a skid plate. It will add some weight however so doing the board flipping
stuff will be a little trickier and when you bash your shins there will be
more mass to impart a bigger bruise.

Good luck.

About the time I had mastered getting the toothpaste back in the tube, then
they come up with this striped stuff.
