THE VIEW FROM RIDGE HQ RSS

We are printing our new series up at the moment, which is very exciting for us.  The Ridge Motif series are 7 brand new designs available in either 22" mini cruiser complete or 32" standard skateboard complete, and we are very pleased with them.  This is the favourite in the office so far: They ship complete with the standard Ridge trucks and wheels, and have the black blank super-raw griptape on top. We like them.  Here is a photo of the first batch being printed up at Ridge HQ: And here is the link to the Motifs on the site:...

We are very proud.   The Recycled range has now been made and is on the shelves.   It is the only recycled mini cruiser made in the UK, and it is made out of car bumpers.  That means it is available in every colour as long as it is black... but we are very chuffed with its properties- it withstands all of the same tests as our regular boards, and we really test those!

A busy week here at Ridge HQ sees the introduction of a new system to assemble skateboards.  It seems like it is working well so far, the assemblers look pleased about it. We have had a deluge of great Ridge photos sent to us by fans in the sunshine, our favourites always make it onto Facebook or our Instafeed. Pleased to have made it to the weekend, looking forward to get some great skateboarding weather on Sunday.
