Torey Pudwill’s Grizzly 2.0 is going to fly off the shelves- the paint on the truck looks like it could actually be griptape (I assure you it’s not…)

The Stevie Williams Black Ops is about as tough as they come.

P-Rod’s new truck, The Code, has the best skate commercial that I’ve seen in a long time (If you like Dexter).

These trucks, along with several other new additions to the line, are in stock and up on the site.

New Real LowPro Skateboard Deck: Ishod & Huf!

Spesh — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:04:18 +0000

The new REAL Ishod & Huf LowPro boards are in stock!!
Ishod’s pro model LowPro comes in a 7.81 and an 8.12, the HUF comes in a 7.75 and an 8.25. These are in addition to all of the other LowPro REAL boards that we can’t keep in stock…

Real Low-Pro Skateboards – For more detailed info or to pick one up.

Skaters are stoked on the new construction for a couple of reasons :

Lower Center of Gravity – LowPro decks are center pressed with a slight nose to tail rocker, lowering the deck’s center of gravity for more control.
Quicker Pop – LowPro deck’s center rocker also provides an additional axis point causing the deck to react faster and allows for a quicker pop off the nose and tail.
Guaranteed Longer Lasting – Low Pro decks lightness and strength come from slightly tighter radius side to side concave that strengthens the deck and allows for two custom miiled thinner x-bands that reduce weight without reducing strength.
New High Tech Glue – Black seal water resistant glue that you can see between the plies which increases the deck’s strength and stiffness

Call/email us any questions!
