Santa Cruz is on fire with reissues as of late! These fall reissues are classic graphics and shapes, and are exactly how you remember them from the 80’s! The boards feature Santa Cruz’s original Cruz Missile 2 concave, a personal favorite of Erick Winkowski and Tom Boyle. The mellow and directional concave keeps from being steep, but locks you into the middle of the board perfectly, and flips like a regular modern concave.
Jeff Kendall’s shape is one of the most usable reissue decks that still keeps that old school 80’s feel. The Kendall Graffiti deck has a wide fish tail and a square nose that feels great in your hand, and this board is meant to be grabbed. Sweepers, Lien to tails, and Grayslides are what this board is built for. The graphics on this board have a sweet 80’s graffiti style to them and the colours pop on top of the white dip.

Santa Cruz Classics
Santa Cruz Skateboards, nestled in the skateboarder's paradise of Santa Cruz, California, burst onto the scene in 1973. Picture this: Richard Novak, Doug Haut, and Jay Shuirman, probably sporting some epic '70s hairdos, get together and say, "Hey, let's start NHS Inc. and shake up the skate world."
With over four decades of skateboarding smarts (that's like, 280 in dog years of skate knowledge), Santa Cruz isn't just a brand; it's a skateboarding legend. Thanks to the mind-blowing graphics from the artist extraordinaire Jim Phillips, their decks are more iconic than a rock star's guitar.
And let's talk about NHS's brand family – it's like the Avengers of skateboarding gear. They distribute the who's who of skate brands: Santa Cruz Skateboards (obviously), Creature Skates for the monster in you, Independent Truck Co. (the backbone of your board), Bronson Speed Co. (because who doesn't like speed?)!
