All-Terrain WheelsInspired by lumberjacking machinery, these wheels provide the necessary adaptability required for the most challenging of environmental conditions.

Wooden HandlesTraditional hand tools typically make use of wooden handles to provide leverage for the more violent metal portion of the instrument.

Metal BladeWhether in tall brush, or just in need of a new fallen branch to grind on, the built-in metal blade enhances the environment as the skater sees fit.

Wax ChannelAll the better to grind with! The wax channel can be refilled with off-the-shelf wax simply by melting it with a lighter or match. It is low cost and it protects the board from the natural landscape. Leave your mark around the Urban Forest!

The sand-casted Aluminum board provides rigidity, yet creates the necessary flex required for performing difficult tricks.

Longer than a traditional skateboard, Lumber Jack’d boards provide more stability and balance for the rider.

Integral trucks provide better side-to-side support while also providing balance

Grinding on surfaces is of no consequence to the board since little damage is done to the aluminum board. Therefore, fewer board replacements!

The Daily GrindA day in the life of the young skateboarder

The concept of placing an urban forest in the midst of modern life brings forth images of undergrowth and trees sprouting up through the city's artificial landscape, interupting the regular flow of daily life, creating both obstacles and opportunities.

The lumberjack was used as an inspiration for new behaviours in the urban forest. We see the modern equivalent of the lumberjack as being the young, adventurous skateboarder. These individuals take advantage of their environment until it is beyond repair.
