5Boro x Dan Santoro Skateboard Deck Series Danny Fall Review

5Boro Skateboards x Dan Santoro Skateboard Deck

Danny Falla’s 5 Boro Skateboards deck from Dan Santoro’s artwork is not half bad. 5boro skateboards puts out some quality wood with this one, featuring a leopard fighting off UFO’s which is so cool. This is a crazy looking graphic, and it fits in with the rest of the theme that 5Boro has. You’ll find that this is a stanadr 7 ply skateboard deck with 5boro skateboards’ graphic design simplicity, and limited edition release. You will want to collect the entire Dan Santoro series of skateboards because they are part of the 5boro skateboards tradition of working with artists and repping New York City. I love it, this is a great deck, what are you waiting for? Christmas? Get yourself some 5boro skateboards and rep core skateboarding.

5Boro x Dan Santoro Skateboard Deck Series McDonald Deck Review

5Boro Skateboards x McDonald Deck

For all two people that follow my blog, you know that I love the work that 5boro skateboards does. They partner with artists, they support their local scene, and they bleed New York City in many ways. I recall Manik Skateboards being that great for the city of Seattle, and really making me want to skateboard a lot more. They are long gone, but you know what? That spirit is alive and well with companies like 5boro skateboards putting out fine decks, including this one from the Dan Santoro art line that they just put out.

This deck features some true Americana and if you’re an American, then how can you not like this one? It’s killer, and well worth putting under your feet. If you’re a fan of skateboarding, then why not pick up something from 5boro skateboards? Oh, this deck is 7 ply hardwood, and it features Dan Santoro graphic design, what else can I say? It’s a solid board, easy to flip, and one that I probably will buy 2 of because I mount them on my walls in my office and other areas of my house.

5Boro x Dan Santoro Akers Deck Review

5Boro Skateboards x Santoro Akers Deck

It’s been a while since I made any commentary about skateboard decks, and well, that’s because I have been busy doing a lot of different things. I am getting a master’s degree, I’m in the Midwest and it’s cold, and well, I have other priorities. But I caught a really cool set of skateboards thanks to 5Boro Skateboards and their commitment to artwork.

They just put out a series of skateboards with Dan Santoro at the helm, and it’s really cool. So I’m going to be talking about 5Boro skateboards, or something, I don’t know, reviewing boards gets old, especially since my tastes are different than your tastes. So if you are a fan of 5Boro skateboards, then you’re going to dig their stuff, as much as I did when I first discovered them.

5Boro Skateboards Cinco Barrios Skateboard Deck Review

Holy crap, they are back! The guys at 5Boro skateboards have really outdone themselves with this one. I love the team, love the skateboards, and really feel that the guys have been doing well in representing New York City skateboarding. As such, they have released this killer deck, and it’s available in two different sizes and colorways. I personally love this particular colorway, as it is very much a Latin American flavor. Mexican, to be exact. Either way, if you’re going to support core branded skateboarding, then you should get yourself one of these 5Boro skateboards.

The 5Boro skateboards Cinco Barrios skateboard deck is available at your local skateboard shop, and online. Maybe even on amazon by clicking here. Not sure, though. Whatever, go skate this deck or put it on your wall like I’m going to do.

5Boro Skateboards Mickey Mouse Running From Cops Skateboard Deck Review

Always Run From Police - 5Boro Skateboards

Ok, it’s not really Mickey Mouse. 5Boro skateboards puts a really cool spin on the classic mouse, but it’s not Mickey. Well, it kind of is, but it’s not. If you look at this skateboard from 5Boro skateboards, you’re going to find that the guys have doodled their way into giving you a bad idea, run from the police. Hey, I’m not going to advocate anything illegal, but I did run in my younger years. I grew up skateboarding Santa Monica, and well, the cops don’t like you hitting the streets or public areas, and you either ran or you were going to be fined or locked up.

With the release of the “Always Run From Police” deck, you get that classic 5Boro skateboards style, with a nod to the mouse that runs the house of Disney. Cool deck, may be a great one for the wall, where it may get appreciated.

Zoo York Skateboards Daniel Scales Genesis Part HD Skateboarding Video

Daniel Scales just made me a believer with his part for Zoo York skateboards. This is Scales' "Genesis" part. He has put on a showcase of pure talent, and dedication to the sport with this clip. Don't sleep on Zoo York's skateboarding right now, the team is killing it, and they keep putting out quality boards and clothing. This is a great part, check it out and support the company if you'd like.

Zoo York Water Color Liberty Skate Deck Review

Of all the skateboarding companies that have made it big, I feel that Zoo York still maintains a lot of their graphic design elements. They still push modern skateboarding, even if the team is not like it once was, and there are a lot of people rocking their clothing, etc. Whatever the case may be, they have a new series of decks that feature different New York staples done in water colors. This is the Zoo York Water Color Liberty Skate Deck, for instance, and it’s 8.5 x 31.875 and it’s an instant classic if you’re from New York City.

The Zoo York Water Color Liberty Skate Deck is a good overall shape, with the classic Zoo York concave and hard wood pressing. I’ve always liked the rounder edge that comes with the Zoo York decks, but that’s just a subtle taste element that you may not even notice. Once gripped, this board rocks, and it’s easy to work with if you’re usually skateboarding on a 8.5 deck.

The Zoo York Water Color Liberty Skate Deck is out now, and it’s a good board for the art, and the streets, if you know what I mean.

Krooked Skateboards Artist Series Skateboard Decks Full Art

Krooked skateboards is one of the greatest brands for me. They have been deliberately doing things differently for so long, thanks to Gonz. Mark Gonzales has been able to transform art into skateboarding, and these decks all feature that sort of push forward. I love a lot of brands from the skateboarding world, but few of them capture the artistic elements that creative types possess.

With this series of skateboard decks, Krooked skateboards really puts on a showcase. The art is varied, comes from a lot of different perspectives, and talents. You can really get a feel for the brand with the series of decks that you will find here.

Up front you will get 3 Krooked skateboards, but if you click the jump, you will get 8 more. If you're going to look into skateboarding, and you want art for your wall, or you just want to ride some killer decks, then I recommend Krooked skateboards. For the art, for the love of skateboarding, these are amazing. You won't find another consistently stellar brand right now, at least in regards to art. Maybe Chocolate, maybe Deathwish, but consistently artistic?

It's hard to beat The Gonz and Krooked skateboards. Check out the art on these decks below.
