ok, so i got some astroturf to put on my friends run-in, and we screwed it in. But this fucked up my friends snowboard
(oh boo hoo) and we need a new way to make it stick. would glue work or do we need to screw it further into the wood

did you put screws in the middle of the inrun? WOuldnt common sense tell you that was a dumb idea? Screw it in on the edges and put some sort of adhesive every where else.

he said it fucked up his friends board, so i think he meant it scratched it or something? But yeah get it wet and put dish soap on it if it still doesnt work.

translater please...

I used astroturf from the Reds field. It's slides pretty well when really wet. It's also like an inch thick, so it's sturdy.

i did the same thing. But as a little extra i stuck on some double sided tape. It works really well, and i only have 12 feet of it.
