Fall ’26 sees NHS Inc doing what it does best: reaching deep into skate history and pulling out shapes and graphics that still hit just as hard today. This FA26 Reissue drop brings four iconic pro models back into the spotlight, each one faithfully recreated with period-correct details, bold artwork, and the kind of presence that only true reissues carry.
To top it off, there’s a special heavyweight add-on that deserves its own moment — the 11″ Roskopp Warthog.
NATAS SKETCH PANTHER REISSUE
The Natas Sketch Panther is raw energy frozen in time. Featuring the original hand-drawn panther artwork associated with Natas Kaupas, this deck captures the aggressive, street-level chaos that defined late ’80s innovation. The oversized shape and commanding wheelbase feel unmistakably old school, but the attitude is timeless. This is the kind of board that doesn’t just nod to history — it snarls at it and keeps moving forward.
ROSKOPP FIVE REISSUE
The Roskopp Five brings back one of the most recognizable evolutions in skateboard graphic history. Designed by Rob Roskopp, this deck represents the moment when bold character art and exaggerated shapes became the visual language of skateboarding.
The Five sits perfectly between art piece and functional cruiser, with a shape that still feels powerful underfoot decades later.
GRABKE EXPLODING CLOCK REISSUE
The Exploding Clock is pure visual impact. Claimed by time, pressure, and speed, this graphic reflects the high-velocity style of Claus Grabke during his Santa Cruz era. The loud colours and mechanical chaos feel as urgent now as they did on first release, paired with a wide, stable platform that’s ideal for transition, cruising, or wall display with serious presence.
RANKINE MONSTER REISSUE
The Rankine Monster is dark, heavy, and unmistakable. Featuring Gregor Rankine’s iconic monster artwork, this reissue channels the gnarlier side of late ’80s skateboarding. The stained deck, dramatic flames, and menacing creature reflect the style and personality of Gregor Rankine, making this one a standout for collectors who appreciate the deeper cuts of Santa Cruz history.
SPECIAL ADD-ON: 11″ ROSKOPP WARTHOG
Rounding out the drop is the absolute unit — the 11″ Roskopp Warthog. Oversized, loud, and impossible to ignore, this board takes everything Roskopp graphics are known for and turns the volume all the way up. The massive width and exaggerated shape make it perfect for wide-truck setups, ditch carving, or simply owning the room it’s in. As a bonus add-on to the FA26 Reissue lineup, the Warthog feels less like an extra and more like a victory lap.
This FA26 Reissue drop is a reminder of why Santa Cruz Skateboards and NHS Inc remain pillars of skateboard culture. These boards aren’t reinterpretations or modern takes — they’re honest, unapologetic reissues that celebrate skateboarding’s loudest, weirdest, and most influential era, exactly the way it deserves to be remembered.
