Skateboard Graphic Archive Science Skateboards
Independent skateboard graphic archive featuring artwork by Shawn Whisenant, Sergej Vutuc, Steven Harrington and other contributing artists
Science Skateboards was an independent skateboard company that existed between 2006 and 2020. During that time we released boards featuring artwork by illustrators, photographers and designers from the UK and elsewhere. This archive documents the graphic collaborations produced along the way. Skateboard decks pressed by Generator Distribution.

Ignoring trends. Most of the graphics and collaborations were connected in some way to things that had left an imprint through decades of skateboarding. Skateboard graphics, illustration, photography, music, books, magazines, films, places, people, friendships and experiences that had shaped the way I saw things.
Produced mostly in single runs of 300-700 boards, they were sold independently and also found their way through a handful of small distributors in the UK, Japan, Switzerland and United States.
Parlour Skate Store in London supported us massively whilst they were around. They played a real part in the London skate scene at the time. Thank you to everyone who supported Science over the years.
