Santa Cruz Skateboards was founded in 1973 in Santa Cruz, California by Richard Novak, Doug Haut, and Jay Shuirman and operates under NHS, making it one of the longest-running brands in skateboarding. Known for its California surf-skate aesthetic and iconic Jim Phillips Sr. artwork, the brand remains a cornerstone of skate culture. Santa Cruz produces traditional 7-ply Canadian maple decks, advanced VX constructions, shaped reissues, and cruiser shapes, including pro models from Jeff Kendall and Rob Roskopp.
Built from 7-ply Canadian maple, these skateboard decks deliver strong durability, crisp pop, and dependable control for street, park, and transition skating, while VX constructions offer increased strength and impact resistance with reduced weight. Boards range from popsicle shapes in 8.25–8.5" to wide 10" shapes that provide extra stability for cruising and carving pools.
