What we've been up to in the Back & Forth studio over the past month...
Mark Baker x Skateboarding Hall of Fame Reissue
We are honoured to have worked with Pig City Skateboards (@pigcity_skates) to hand screen print this reissue of Mad Mark Baker’s (@markbaker_skater) ‘Airbreaker’ shaped boards from 1979, celebrating his induction into the Skateboarding Hall of Fame (@skateboardinghalloffame). You can purchase this board below, with proceeds going towards helping build more skateparks for young people.
Nasty Craft x Moose Skate Shop Decks
Local Dorset brands Moose Skate Shop (@mooseskateshop) and Nasty Craft (@nasty_craft) have come together to design their second collaborative board series, featuring artwork by Spencer Lee (@insta_crap2000), the owner of Nasty Craft. Each board has been individually hand-printed, showcasing unique wood grain and two-tone printed graphics, ensuring that no two boards are the same. Purchase your very own below.
Have a Gd Trip - Sunday Morning Decks
We used a UV heat transfer to print these intricate, water coloured graphics for the guys at Have a Gd Trip (@haveagdtrip). Check out their store below to get yours!
Gratitude Skate Shop Decks
We used screen printed transfers to produce a series of these striking, black-and-white boards for Bristol’s newest, proudly skater-owned skate shop, Gratitude (@gratitude_skateshop). These were released at the recent launch party for issue 14 of Dog Piss Magazine (@dogpissmag) at the shop. Get yours now below!
The Ultimate Guide to
Printing Custom Skateboard Decks
From design and partner selection, to printing and fulfilment. This comprehensive guide delves deep into the art and science of printing custom skateboard decks, offering invaluable insights for both seasoned professionals and newcomers to the industry.
Skaters Can’t Afford £90 Decks!
With the rising price of branded decks, now is an excellent time to consider stocking your own graphics for your shop or brand. We consistently stock ASF/Clutch wood, starting at £16 per blank. Feel free to check out the catalogue below for available shapes, sizes and info about our board printing services.
