Skateboarding becomes Screenprinting?
dirkdiggler:
How does this happen so much? So many printers around the globe that I have met, including myself come from skateboarding. I just watched an interview with Rodney Mullen (the godfather of skateboarding) on Larry King and he mentions how in almost all creative industries in the world, they are full of past or present skateboarders. The culture, the music, its almost one in the same. Some people that I am friends with on this very board, don't know what brought us together, but after being friends we realized that our early life in skateboarding are exactly the same, and now we are in screenprinting! Coincidence? I doubt it.
BrazosDesigns:
Grew up skateboarding.... even made my own decks. Never thought about the coincidence until you mentioned it.
Frog:
I think that when you fine tune the connection, the results are a little more obvious. Not just skateboarding, but skateboarding without helmets! LOL!

Funny, music and skateboarding brought me in the industry., a friend of mine's step brother was editor of a skate mag and we were going to do some printing for them. Transworld or something like that it's been what 15 + years ago
