Brand Of The Month: Black Label Skateboards
Black Label has been making high quality skateboards for over 15 years now. Our customers love the Label because they simply make great boards. The other great thing about Black Label is the selection. Not only do they make typical street skating boards, they make a wide variety of boards for skaters who ride bigger boards or skate bowls and pools. This brand really caters to the entire breadth of skateboarding which is not common with other brands.
Black Label has always had a very good quality guarantee as well. If your Black Label decks breaks a little too soon and something seems fishy (maybe because of a strange defect, or something weird that shouldn't normally of happen), they make it very easy to get a new board.
We will be collecting these sponsorship applications until we have a solid arsenal to choose from. We prefer people who will also spread the word of the shop too. We don't just want to send to random dude boards and never hear from them again. We are looking for some shop participation. Let's see there are some rules and things you should know about: You have to be over the age of thirteen too. We usually look for skaters that have creative skateboarding down. We have seen plenty of ollies, nosegrinds on ledges, 360 flips to bore us our of our minds. We really want to see something new and creative. It's doesn't have to be down huge stuff. Just use some imagination. Also, sponsorship footage that contains the same tricks over and over again is kind of boring too. You don't need to edit to music either. It doesn't matter if you do, but it's not necessary.
