Santa Cruz is the epitome of West Coast living in California and so it’s incredibly apt that the oldest operating skateboard manufacturer in the world has that namesake.

A Rich History Shaped Santa Cruz
The Santa Cruz team that were present at the very beginning of the company weren’t solely skaters; they were actually very deeply entrenched into the surf scene in the city of Santa Cruz. However, on the days where there were no waves, the team could be found skateboarding on the streets and in the parks. The ramps and pools in the 1980 were flush with Santa Cruz members such as Steve Olson, Jeff Grosso or Steve Salba. Eric Dressen was also a huge success when he showed the street skating scene how to slay halfpipes and backyard pools in 1989 for the Speed Freaks video.

The Iconic Screaming Hand Design

You will find this design on every from Santa Cruz socks in Australia to the hoodies, T-shirts, decks and more.
