Palisades Skateboards - New Line With Artist Drew Brophy 
Costa Mesa, CA – Palisades Skateboards continues to grow its line of art driven skateboards with the addition of five new boards designed by internationally renowned Surf Artist Drew Brophy. Best known for his surreal surfboard paintings and bright, colorful designs Brophy has expanded his art to design many different things including skatedecks. “We are very excited to be working with Drew,” Said Kurt Hurley, National Sales Manager in charge of Palisades, “he has a proven track record in this industry, his art connects with people and it sells.”
"As a grom, I remember making my first skateboard out of scrap wood and I had a blast riding it,” Said Brophy, “Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd be designing graphics for such a wide variety of boards like I am for Palisades. It makes me smile to think of the things people will be doing on them."
With the addition of Brophy to the Palisades line there are now 24 unique decks to choose from for 2010. All Palisades decks are sold as completes and are built to ride, assembled using the best available components to insure the best cruising & downhill experience.
