Goshen, Indiana * - What is unofficially the "World's Largest Skateboard" was wheeled into this town of 29,000 on Wednesday.
Measuring 25 feet, two inches, and 36.5 inches wide, the 600-lb skateboard was on display at The Post Youth Center. Reportedly, brave skaters could take it around the block, and at its peak, the 600-pound board has had 35 people on it.
Craig Stutzman, who created the skateboard, says he wanted to build it simply because it had never been done before.
His next goal is to get the Guinness Book of World Records to examine his behemoth creation and certify that it's the world record holder for largest skateboard.
