If you told me several years ago that Welcome Skateboards was going to be a successful board brand in 2016 I would have laughed at you. With graphics that look like they were taken out of a goth’s highschool notebook, a team of kids that were virtually unknown, and decks that come in all kinds of random shapes, there wasn’t another brand that looked anything like it at the time. But that’s exactly why it worked. Check the full interview with Welcome owner Jason Celaya over at the Jenkem site.
Featuring Aaron Herrington, Kenny Anderson, Frank Gerwer, Jake Johnson, Mike Anderson, Louie Lopez, Al Davis and a slew of others around Seoul, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Macau.
Ryan “Smarty Pants” Lay has an interview up on Jenkem, bragging about how smart he is. Go have a look!
(Seriously though, it’s a good interview.)
