It has been done in the past. Our entire skate industry once was based on hardwood skateboards. It has been done, but it has never been done like this before. In 2010 we are pushing the envelope on how a hardwood longboard can be ridden and also how it can be made.

Mixing creative minds, the art of woodworking and a passion for skating we are creating some of the highest performing longboards out there. While we still have our classic cruisers, we also have a line of freeride, dancers, playful commuters, and even the industries first customizable downhill longboard.

Love your Live,
