Doh-dohs Black extra hard bushings will help. I'm over 200 lbs and have to have hard bushings. You won't be able to carve a bowl with those bushings but it sounds like you may have some practice to go until then anyway.
​
Start with Doh-Doh Black Extra hard Then once those are comfortable switch to bones hard bushings. That's what I currently skate and can easily carve a bowl with them.
​
Don't give up! It's so fun and so rewarding and easily the best workout I have ever had.

The name of that book was The Handmade Skateboard. It's pretty good and covers a lot of gluing. I love to glue wood together.
Lol thankfully it is not. It’s this one https://www.amazon.com/MINORITY-32inch-Maple-skateboard/dp/B06XWX7RF6?th=1&psc=1 and it’s got pretty solid reviews for that price range though admittedly I didn’t spend a ton of time shopping around.
I heard oust bearings are good too. My wheels are skatepark formula, but I would experiment with softer wheels if it made skating concrete pools easier. https://www.amazon.com/Oust-Bearings-MOC-Air-set/dp/B012OZVGKG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1474926266&sr=8-2&keywords=oust+bearings
I used McDavid level 3 lace up braces. I find them to be great and they're not too bulky. https://smile.amazon.com/McDavid-Classic-White-Lightweight-medium/dp/B000UVVXPA/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAh5_uBRA5EiwASW3Iaka0_N7f3nhGfr9BB1KRlv5JHlUkJtWSFScAwLK9p1HH-hKGMnznXxoCNN0QAvD_BwE&hvadid=177806427835&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9009669&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=b&hvrand=2662267007420726301&hvtargid=kwd-51831285898&hydadcr=21884_9712113&keywords=mcdavid+level+3+ankle+brace&qid=1573393346&sa-no-redirect=1&sr=8-5
I believe that's a different model. The knee pads for derby are definitely different.
These are the ones I have.

I thought the book was about pools since there was a pool on the cover, but i think it's more personal. Any how, here it is. I should get a copy.

Grab one of these and bring it with you next time! You’ll be skating in 20 minutes!
Rubbermaid Commercial Standard Floor Squeegee
I actually bought it on Craigslist but it’s an element rail... I believe it’s this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01A9IC55A/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1527115060&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=element+grind+rail&dpPl=1&dpID=31WkbUhCTxL&ref=plSrch
I didn’t pay that much for it though.
I got these, they have literally saved my ass. https://www.amazon.com/Hillbilly-protective-gear-27041-Impact/dp/B001CSYNZW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1504704551&sr=8-1&keywords=hillbilly+impact+shorts
