Girl Skateboards recently invited Craig Abell-Champion to customize one of our well known wooden OG dolls. Craig ultimately manipulated and transformed three “OG Dolls” into beautiful pieces of art that are now featured across a three board series. The dolls come to life in “The Devil Loves Funambulists“, a short stop-motion piece written and directed by Craig Champion.

Found on a dusty old drive and simply titled The Yeah Right! Log Tape, 11/6/00 this old file contains what looks like the beginning stages for filming for 2003’s Yeah Right!

“If your name ain’t got an ‘R’ then you ain’t in the vid.”
Turns out our Jr Lensman, Rye Beres, and all his little blow buddies’ names start with the same letter. So to make good use of his time and theirs, we told him to start making some videos. Hopefully this won’t be the last one.
The Chocolate Team recently went to Miami for some shred and sunshine. Featuring Elijah Berle, Raven Tershy, Stevie Perez, Vincent Alvarez, Jerry Hsu, Chico Brenes, Kenny Anderson and Aramis Hudson. To see more check out Chocolate’s Spring ’16 Drop.
Lakai is proud to present Vincent Alvarez with his second pro model, the VA2. Available now at Lakai.com and Lakai retailers worldwide.
The Lakai Staple was originally released in 2001, and was an immediate team favorite. The Staple has been updated to today’s standards, and given colorways inspired by three of Lakai’s riders who made the originals look so good: Rick Howard, Marc Johnson, and Mike Carroll.
Once again the Lakai Staple has become an instant team favorite. Lakai riders were given the new Staple to test on a day in the streets of Downtown Los Angeles.
With two big QPs, a flatbed truck, an old Vespa and a Raven Tershy we found a wall and set out to shoot some stuff for the Pretty Sweet intro. We camped out on this side street, with nary a permit in site, and filmed as much shit as we could. The boys were feeling good and the cameras were running. Probably one of the funnest days filming for a lot of us in a long time. Enjoy!
Mike Carroll and Sean Malto hand deliver artist Marcel Dzama his new Girl Skateboards Studio Series.
Known for working in a wide range of media, Marcel Dzama creates collages, dioramas and large-scale polyptychs that depict fanciful, anachronistic worlds full of humans, animals and hybrid creatures. His work, which looks like something you might stumble upon in an antique shop, has not only been published in McSweeney’s, the bible of David Egger’s generation of writers, but it has also appeared on the album covers of “The Else” by They Might Be Giants and “Guero” by Beck, as well as in the music videos for songs by Bob Dylan and the Department of Eagles, and now a set of Girl Skateboards.
The Girl Skateboard Company proudly presents the Studio Series, featuring an evolving group of internationally recognized contemporary artists. The selected works aim to expand upon the traditional expectations of skateboard art, by featuring artists more commonly associated with contemporary art galleries and museums. The Studio Series bridges the gap between skateboarding and some of our most creative friends.
