A LOVESTORY
While you can actually find a modest selection of ridable waves on the coasts of Germany and Denmark, the terrible reality is that surfers living in Hamburg are landlocked – at least most of the time. And yet we feel the hunger for waves is more present than in any other city of this country. Obviously flat days power the creative mind and over time we became passionate not only about skating but also designing a deck of our own.
So stay tuned and sign up to our mailing list as we are super excited about having a couple of handcrafted, regionally produced prototypes beneath our feet right now and they feel great!
Production
REGIONAL
By producing with various types of local timber, for example beech and ash, our surfskate decks do not only have an exceptionally high quality but we avoid additional transportation and can reduce our carbon footprint.
IN GERMANY
All decks are handcrafted with heart and soul in a local woodshop in northern Germany. The core construction and materials are a unique example of fine craftmanship and a truely sustainable product.
FSC CERTIFIED
All timber which is being used in our decks is 'FSC-certified'. FSC is short for the 'Forrest Steward Council®' which is an international certification system that helps to identify sustainable and conscientious forestry.
CONSTRUCTION
Instead of the standard seven layers Canadian maple all of our surfskate decks are built from six layers of regional German timber – this construction reduces the amount of exposy resin needed. The result is a sustainable, lightweight but very robust deck with extra longevity and just the right amount of flex.
PERFORMANCE
With the shape we have left nothing to chance. Like a classic 'Fish' our decks are true hybrids: a wide nose and extra leverage on the front truck combind with a solid wheelbase result in a stable ride but highly aggressive maneuvers. Concave and tail have been optimized for a solid stance and board control.

The Journey
There was a dream and that was blue.
»Oh, imagine those wild shores. The groves of Redwoods. The beach. All is wet with rain and yet every step in the warm, white sand awakens your soul.«
