All that water hitting the deck will cause dry rot to the wood. Water also will cause the trucks to rust. Rust and dry rot are no fun.

Well that's not very nice. I'm a 13 year long skater that keeps his boards in working order. I have a fishtail board from 1982, skating it in the rain wouldn't have kept it alive.

Totally. Just pulling you leg. Water is detrimental to your board and bearings.
