Nose Guard

Anyone got a nose guard to fit a Bamboo GT yet? Did a little damage to the end of mine standing it on its nose and wondered if anyone had fitted one?

 

I have found these which I think I might try:

Original PK Apex Longboard Dancer Noseguards

I really want the Bombsquad nose guard but cannot find a UK supplier

The Killswitch shape looks about the best fit:

Nose Guard BombSquad

 

Which wheels do you have? With AT wheels the nose of my Bamboo GT doesn't hit the ground when verticle

 

What about these less 'hard' nose protectors, thinking of getting one as well:

Hellmet Noseguards - Longboard Noseguards and more - www.hellmet.de

Backbone Nose guards for skateboards

 

I haven't tried or seen either of those brands IRL. I prefer the first one linked based on the look in pictures. The second one seems similar to what the Raptor ships with now.

 

I am on a street set up dude

 

I have loads of that trim in the garage from my classic cars. I was looking for something more substantial and better looking.

 

This is what I got.

 

I don't know WTF! Added a street tires pic. and AT kept popping up.

 

Gotcha. My street wheels are 97mm, so they are just big enough to protect the nose of the board

 

I noticed the Gen 1 Carbons have a plastic nose guard. Anywhere I can obtain one of those?

 

Anybody knows where to get these in US?

 

I noticed a nose guard for sale on the evolve site today, i think it was for the carbon but might cross over with some drilling

 

See my other post for further details.
Nose Guard for Bamboo GT

It's working well so far and keeping my board scuff free.

 

I have designed a custom nose guard for the Evolve Bamboo GT.
Designed to fit underneath the front truck and available in both orange and black.

Benefits of the guard is that it:
- Saves your boards nose from getting scraped.
- Makes it easy to stand your board on its nose.

Very cool. I wanted to buy one but $15 shipping to US is too much. Have you considered finding some site which can print your orders in US and ship? I think there are 3D printing shops doing that. Thanks!
