After
giving much thought as to the reasons why I skate, I've come
to the conclusion that it's the release that has kept me skating
for 30 plus years now. No matter your age or what type of
skating you're into, boarding can provide an escape from the
pressures of daily life
It's The Ultimate Release...
Everyone can relate to getting bogged down in the daily grind.
Whether it is school, parents, work, or spouse; we all feel
it sometime. It doesn't matter if you're into street, vert,
ditches, longboarding, or just cruising, skating can provide
us all with the release.
So, the notion of the release led me to name my company Pressure
Drop Longboards. This name not only encompasses
the release but also reflects my love of reggae music. (The
song "Pressure Drop" by Toots and the Maytals is truly
an all time great!) Classic reggae meets classic longboards!
Perhaps the best things about the release are that it's free
and non-discriminatory. Regardless of race, age, sex, style,
or skill level, the release is ours to experience. All that's
left is to get out there and enjoy the ride.
One Love and Many Longboards,
Shaun O.

P.S. I'd personally like to thank Chris at LBD and Michael
at Concrete Wave magazine, who have provided me with a lot of
assistance and given me the inspiration to do my part in helping
to spread the stoke!
