#165: Shredability

I’ve recently taken up skateboarding (inquiring minds: I ride goofy) and my daydreams are now pretty much limited to imagining how high I might be able to ollie one day and wondering which Vans are the sickest (Classics are, of course).   I’m a summer baby and I wasn’t about to let another birthday come to pass without learning to “shred”, or at least getting myself to a place where I can at least think about being able to “shred” one day.  High shredability, very important!

Loyal Dean makes the most beautiful boards I have ever seen.  Born in California, made in the USA and designed by nature, their thing is “40% reclaimed lumber, organic-where-the-wind-goes-design and a surplus of buttery smooth downhill asphalt rolling
toward the horizon line.”

“We’re master craftsmen, designers and woodworkers for 25 combined years.  So when it comes to working with wood, we know our craft.  We know design.  And we, well, know our wood.  Simply put, the reputation we’ve earned as maestro woodmen is also ideal for creating and crafting premium wooden skateboards.” – Loyal Dean

Check them out and think about saving up for one.  This is what I’m getting for my birthday next year.

Here’s two more skate links, daydreams to the tune of reality:
