When your child gets bored with skateboarding
Skateboards: Your child may not want to cruise the neighborhood on his skateboard, but he’ll probably think it looks cool in his room – you can easily turn this into a rad shelf that holds his important stuff. Purchase a pair of L-brackets that are a little more than half as long as the skateboard’s width. Screw the brackets into studs in the wall and set the board on top. You can remove the wheels if you choose.
Hey kids, you know what really looks cool? A skateboard smashing a television set and a kid going out to skate!

Pottery Barn Kids and a few other places actually sell expensive skateboard shelving. I have the pages torn out of the catalog somewhere.
