Thanks everyone for the love and support. Thanks to all our patrons and those riding our boards. The Blak Sheep SquADHDron is slowly growing.  2024 was a tough one. We lost Ed Cook to a heart attack. He was far too young. Our hearts go out to Ed's family and many friends.  Ed was a huge supporter of Blak Sheep, and he was very involved in what we were doing. He always would use "we, we're, we've " when discussing Blak Sheep with people. He was a brother to me, and he will be dearly missed. As Thanksgiving comes to...

2019 was a year of new developments.  We switched from bamboo to urethane for our sidewalls.   We can also now create base and cores that align perfectly during pressing.  The new sidewall tech has boosted the quality of our build process and our finished boards.  We named it Gnarwalls, because we can add fun colors and additives like glitter or glow-in-the-dark powder.  Bamboo provided good rebound from flex, creating pop.  We now use carbon fiber netting in diamond patterns, hence the name Diamond Pop.  A layer of carbon in 1inch or 1/2 inch diamonds is underneath the core, adding spring...

We have started construction of new boards!

Our renovations are complete enough to move back in, we are setting back up now!  The CNC router is running, the press is in place and things are being put back together and sorted out.  We will have protos and backordered boards worked out very soon!  In the meantime, check the products and catalog, we are adding teeshirts and will also have some hoodies in a little while.  Tees will drop before Friday :).   Thanks for your continued patience and support!
