MAKING SKATES

THE BEHIND SCENES OF THE WHAT WE LIKE TO CALL. "THE PERFECT SKATEBOARD".

THE Design

FOR THE DESIGN WE CHOOSE TO GO WITH SOME SIMPLE SHAPES WE DRAW INSPIRED BY THE OLD EARLIES 80'S DECKS. IT WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO BE SOLID HARD WOOD.

THE ACTUAL PROCESS

FIRST SHAPES.

THE FIRST FEW DECKS WERE THE MOST DIFFICULT, WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE EVERY STEP WAS TAKEN CARE OF PERFECTLY. THE WIDTH OF THE DECK MAKES FOR AN AERODYNAMIC BOARD AND SOME FLEXIBILITY WICH COMES HANDY AT HIGH SPEED RIDES.

WE ALSO MADE SURE THE DECK WOULD LOOK ABSOLUTE GORGEOUS... BECAUSE "COME ON"

IF WE ARE GOING TO CRUISE THE WORLD, WE WILL CRUISE IT WITH STYLE.

THE LOGO

AND FOR THE LOGO.

WE DECIDED TO SHAPE A CROSS.

AND WHY A CROSS? YOU MAY ASK.

WELL, I PERSONALLY HAD A HARD TIME IN MY LIFE AND MOST OF THE TIME WHEN I FEEL LIKE EVERYTHING GOES AGAINST ME, IS IN GOD WHERE I HAVE FOUND THE REAL PEACE I NEEDED. SO, GOD GAVE HIS LIFE FOR US AND GAVE US THE GIFT OF REDDEMPTION , IF WE ACCEPT IT.

HE GIVES US A NEW LIFE. A BRAND NEW CHANCE.

WHEN MAKING THIS PROJECT THIS WAS IT. IT WAS A NEW BEGGINING AND A CHANCE TO DO SOMETHING GOOD AND THAT WILL HOPEFULLY MAKE SOMEONE ELSE FEEL THE SAME WAY I FELT WHEN I FIRST RIDE ONE OF THIS CRUISERS. IS A SENSE OF FREEDOM AND I WANTED EVERY SKATEBOARD TO HAVE THAT MARK.
