The present disclosure provides advantageous skateboard assemblies (e.g., advantageous skateboard mounting member assemblies). More particularly, the present disclosure provides advantageous adjustable mounting members/assemblies for skateboards and related methods of use. In exemplary embodiments, the present disclosure provides for adjustable, movable, slideable, rotatable, interchangeable and/or removable mounting members/assemblies for skateboards. The skateboard mounting member assemblies typically include a contoured or shaped top surface (e.g., ergonomically curved, shaped and/or contoured top surface), each contoured/shaped top surface configured and dimensioned to provide the user/rider an advantageous surface that a user/rider can position a foot (or feet) onto/over during use (e.g., a surface that a user/rider can utilize to place or position a foot directly onto/above, with the bottom side of the user's foot contacting the contoured top surface of the mounting member assembly).

1. A skateboard mounting member assembly comprising: a first mounting member having a contoured top surface, the first mounting member configured and dimensioned to he mounted to at least a portion of a top side of a skateboard deck in a first position;a second mounting member having a top surface,
1. A skateboard mounting member assembly comprising: a first mounting member having a contoured top surface, the first mounting member configured and dimensioned to he mounted to at least a portion of a top side of a skateboard deck in a first position;a second mounting member having a top surface, the second mounting member configured and dimensioned to be mounted to: (i) the first mounting member, and (ii) the top side of the skateboard deck in the first position;wherein the contoured top surface of the first mounting member is configured and dimensioned to provide a user a surface that the user can utilize to place or position a foot directly onto or above, with a bottom side of the user's foot contacting the contoured top surface of the mounted first mounting member during use of the skateboard deck;wherein the top surface of the second mounting member is configured and dimensioned to provide a user a surface that the user can utilize to place or position a foot directly onto or above, with a bottom side of the user's foot contacting the top surface of the mounted second mounting member during use of the skateboard deck;wherein the first and second mounting members each include mating locking teeth, the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members configured and dimensioned to lockingly engage one another when the first and second mounting members are mounted to one another, the lockingly engaged. first mounting member thereby prevented from rotationally moving; andwherein after the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members engage one another, the first and second mounting members are configured to be disengaged from one another where the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members are disengaged from one another, which thereby allows a user to move the first or second mounting member relative to one another, and thereafter allows the user to lockingly re-engage the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members to one another. 2. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the second mounting member includes a fastener member that is configured and dimensioned to be mounted to a truck assembly, the truck assembly mounted to a bottom side of the skateboard deck. 3. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the second mounting member includes an elongated slot therethrough, the elongated slot configured and dimensioned to allow a fastener member to pass therethrough to allow the second mounting member to be mounted to at least a portion of the top side of the skateboard deck in the first position; and wherein the elongated slot is configured to allow a user to loosen the mounted fastener member while the fastener member remains at least in part within the elongated slot and thereafter allow the first and second mounting members to be moved to a second position relative to the top side of the skateboard deck and relative to the loosened fastener member within the elongated slot;wherein the first position of the mounted first and second mounting members is different than the second position of the mounted first and second mounting members on the top side of the skateboard deck. 4. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the first mounting member includes, at least in part, a moldable and curable material. 5. The assembly of claim 1, wherein after the first and second mounting members are mounted to at least a portion of the top side of the skateboard deck, the first and second mounting members are removable relative to the top side of the skateboard deck. 6. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the contoured top surface of the first mounting member rises and slopes upwardly from at least a portion of art outer edge of the first mounting member and extends to a top surface of the first mounting member, the top surface including a substantially planar portion. 7. A mounting method comprising: providing a skateboard deck having a top side;providing a first mounting member having a contoured top surface;mounting the first mounting member to the top side of the skateboard deck in a first position;providing a second mounting member having a top surface;mounting the second mounting member to: (i) the first mounting member, and (ii) the top side of the skateboard deck in the first position;wherein the contoured top surface of the first mounting member is configured and dimensioned to provide a user a surface that the user can utilize to place or position a foot directly onto or above, with a bottom side of the user's foot contacting the contoured top surface of the mounted first mounting member during use of the skateboard deck;wherein the top surface of the second mounting member is configured and dimensioned to provide a user a surface that the user can utilize to place or position a foot directly onto or above, with a bottom side of the user's foot contacting the top surface of the mounting second mounting member during use of the skateboard deck;wherein the first and second mounting members each include mating locking teeth, the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members configured and dimensioned to lockingly engage one another when the first and second mounting members are mounted to one another, the lockingly engaged first mounting member thereby prevented from rotationally moving; andwherein after the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members engage one another, the first and second mounting members are configured to be disengaged from one another where the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members are disengaged from one another, which thereby allows a user to move the first or second mounting member relative to one another, and thereafter allows the user to lockingly re-engage the mating locking teeth of the first and second mounting members to one another. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the second mounting member includes a fastener member that is mounted to a truck assembly, the truck assembly mounted to a bottom side of the skateboard deck. 9. The method of clam 7wherein the contoured top surface of the first mounting member rises and slopes upwardly from at least a portion of an outer edge of the first mounting member and extends to a top surface of the first mounting member, the top surface including a substantially planar portion. 10. The method of claim 7, wherein the first mounting member includes, at least in part, a moldable and curable material. 11. The method of claim 7, wherein after the first and second mounting members are mounted to at least a portion of the top side of the skateboard deck, the first and second mounting members are removable relative to the top side of the skateboard deck.
