Heroin skateboard
Heroin Skateboards was founded in 1998 by British skateboarder and artist Mark "Fos" Foster. The name "Heroin" reflects Fos' personal addiction to skateboarding, symbolizing his passion for the sport rather than any association with drugs. Despite the controversy, the brand quickly gained a loyal following in the UK before expanding into the US with the support of Baker Boys Distribution.
What sets Heroin Skateboards apart is its distinctive graphic style, often hand-drawn by Fos himself, and its unique deck shapes, including the iconic "egg" shape, designed for a fun and creative riding experience. The brand’s rebellious spirit, bold artwork, and unconventional approach have made it a favorite among skaters looking for something outside the mainstream.
Whether you’re drawn to its edgy designs, quirky deck shapes, or raw skateboarding aesthetic, Heroin Skateboards continues to push boundaries, keeping the passion for skateboarding alive.
