mission statement
We do not believe form and function are mutually exclusive. Skateboarding is an innovative and boundless art, and it is our philosophy that boards should appear equally as innovative as the movements they facilitate. Riders deserve boards with an aesthetic appeal that will inspire them, not just a graphic to fill blank deck space. We recognize that skateboarding, like art, resists the urge of conforming to simple conventions. But unlike the notion of high art, which is often perceived to be superior, fragile and untouchable, our work defies tradition as it is disposable and, in fact, made more beautiful by its use and subsequent destruction. What we've created are boards that can be hanging on a wall as art one day, and grinding down a rail the next. It's your choice where to take it.
Cheers,
Robyn Trovati & Mykim Dang
