This graphic is inspired by the voyagers who connected the old pacific, to recognize the wisdom and spiritual connection that was once a fully sustainable seafaring culture.
Born and raised on the southern shore of O’ahu, Hawai’i. Chris is an ambassador for Globe on and off his board. As a painter, filmmaker, printmaker, designer, surfer, diver, skateboarder, and adventurer, the purpose of this modern explorer’s work is the elevation of Aloha, creative expression, storytelling and the exploration of truth, beauty and goodness.

Globe Surf/Skate boards come standard with SlantTM Magnesium Surf/Skate Trucks. They’re roughly 25% lighter than aluminum trucks, have a lower center of gravity with integrated riser pads, and are backed by the Slant trucks guarantee.
Our boards can be pumped to generate momentum, or pushed like a normal cruiser. They are skateboards after all.

The natural coconut fibres upcycled into ply sheets allow us to use less maple wood for a more environmentally responsible deck that leaves a smaller footprint. Coconuts are readily available, the husk requires minimal processing and they come from self-sustaining crops.

The intricate griptape pattern was designed by Chris, based in traditional Hawaiian art culture. The special process used to make this grip ensures the edges of grip won’t peel up over time.
