2020 Welcome Skateboards

Welcome Skateboards - Glam Dragon team deck - Atheme shape A modern classic 8.8" deck with a rare shape design on new Independent Stage XI 149mm + Bones 100's wheels. The principles at Welcome Skateboards were aghast at the uniform popsicle sticks and unrecognizable culture of modern skateboarding; when did the individualism and joy get sucked out of this?  In 2009, they decided they could do better. With 46 directional decks to date, and poppy throwback graphics, the retro-modern-cool aesthetic still thrives at Welcome. Welcome Skateboards states in their adverts:  'skateboards should be beguiling'.  I agree. Deck : •
