There are more than a few main stream skateboarding companies
out now days and a few have faded away. Some of the major skateboarding
companies come from some major distributors that ship boards out to more than
company. Black Box Distribution is the distribution company of my favorite
brand of skateboard which would be Zero Skateboards. They also distribute Fallen
Shoe Ware, Mystery Skateboards, Slave Skateboards and the Insight Clothing line.
Each company has its own website that you can go to in order to purchase their
products.
Zero Skateboards has the Zero Skate Team with a few
riders that skate for them in competitions. The Zero Skate Team is a highly
recognizable skate team. A few of the skaters are Jamie Thomas and Chris Cole.
They are the top two riders on the team in my opinion. They have some of the top
skating abilities in the business. A few of the other riders are James
Brockman, Tommy Sandoval and Keegan Sauder just to name a few.
I agree that some skateboarding companies have phased out since I started getting into the sport. For instance, Etnies used to be a huge skateboarding company. Everybody at my school had those shoes. But now, I don't see them anymore. It is very strange how companies can rise and fall so quickly. I mean, it's only been 3 years since they were big and now they are almost non-existent.
