Skateistan

November 4, 2014

Stoke Strategy in Ballard, is having an auction/party to support Skateistan. They handed out blank skateboard decks to artists and designers willing to participate. I was able to snag one and clad the bottom of it with metal. I really like how the brass hardware turned out on the top and bottom.

Massif

The general topography of Afganistan is largely created from the Hindu Kush Massif (a band of the earth’s crust raised and depressed as a unit and bounded by faults). From above, the country is covered with cracks and lines that run and flow together. Faults in the earth’s crust and the education of our children are two of the most powerful things on our planet. This skateboard celebrates the children of Afganistan to keep changing their own landscape while adding some Pure Stoke to the mix.
