Distinctive There Skateboards delivering artistic graphics, premium construction, and creative skateboarding expression from one of the underground's most respected brands.
Founded by Bay Area artist, skateboarder, and musician Jeffrey Cheung, There Skateboards emerged from a commitment to supporting and amplifying Queer and Trans Skateboarders of Color within skateboarding culture. After co-founding Unity Skateboards with Gabriel Ramirez in 2017, Cheung established There with a mission that extends beyond traditional skateboard manufacturing to create meaningful representation and community building. Their distinctive graphics program showcases artistic vision that celebrates diversity and inclusion, featuring designs that resonate with skateboarding's evolving cultural landscape while maintaining serious skateboarding functionality. Unlike brands that prioritize market trends over authentic expression, There maintains creative independence that allows for experimental graphics and unconventional themes that resonate with skateboarding's underground sensibilities. Their board construction utilizes traditional seven-ply maple with consistent pressing techniques that deliver reliable pop and durability essential for technical street skating and transition riding. The brand's commitment to artistic integrity creates limited production runs and exclusive graphics that appeal to collectors and riders who appreciate skateboarding's intersection with contemporary art and culture. Team riders who represent There embody the brand's creative approach to skateboarding, approaching spots and tricks with the same artistic vision that defines the company's graphic output. Their shape selection includes classic popsicle sticks with varying concave profiles calibrated for different riding preferences, from mellow options perfect for cruising to deeper concaves ideal for flip trick precision. Beyond mere products, There represents skateboarding's authentic creative spirit – a brand that emerged from genuine passion for skateboarding's artistic potential rather than commercial opportunity. When your deck choice reflects personal aesthetic values while delivering consistent performance, There Skateboards provides that perfect balance of artistic expression and skateboarding functionality from one of the underground's most respected and uncompromising brands.
