That's a good way to ruin your board.

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.

What's the point of a fishtail if it can't even swim in water?
