Chad Knight and Built To Shred host Jeff King rig up a brand-new 64GB Apple iPad to see if it can replace your standard skateboard. Will it shred, or will it be dead, that was the question? A very entertaining show and we just had to breakdown to all the juicy bits in pics.

So how did they build the iPad Skateboard, lets look closer…

WARNING for APPLE lovers, all following images may hurt a bit…

What a way to spend a day and a few hundred bucks.
