Side Street Surfing: April 14th

Great turnout tonight.

Longboard Living x Valerie Starr

Valerie Starr is a new artist at Longboard Living. Here is a collage piece she did. It is very raw cut up, gritty display with scratched pen marks and softened with gold glitter and a thick gel medium finish. Much of Valeries work in the modern design of buidings, cars, boats. This board is complete and available at 74 Oxford.

Longboard Living x Millie Knaff

Millie is an amazing artist. Her father was an artist and friends with Ralph Steadman who happened to be the illustrator for Hunter S. Thompson, need i say more? Talk about taking talent and throwing it off the wall. Millie uses her art to describe her dreams, nightmares and visions of perfection / imperfection. Here are some pieces from a recent show she was part of at The Great Hall on Queen St. West.

Millie recently painted 2 boards in collaboaration with Longboard Living as well and it is great to have such a talented artist in the Longboard Living roster.

Welcom Millie!

Fresh Deck at 74 Oxford

We just received a shipment of blanks from our custom longboard supplier.

Custom orders will be painted on 35" or 42" drop through boards.

There is a line up of artists ready to get at these so expect to see some new boards in the collection very soon. If you would like to place an order for a custom painted board, email us at longboardliving@gmail.com and we will help you design a custom board and choose an artist with the right style.

New Kids on the Block

So a few weeks ago 2 of these guys came in looking for a board. Wanting to know which one was the fastest, which one was the best and which one would ultimately make them the coolest kid at school. The only problem was that they were dealing with lunch money savings and a hand painted complete from the collection would not be the best option. I ordered in some boards in their price range from Madrid Longboards and let them pick. We are happy to meet any riders request for product the best we can and it was awesome to see this dude and all his friends stoked about the new longboards at 74 Oxford.

Sneak Peek: Longboard Living x Napalm Decks

A few months ago at the Upwards and Onwards showcase with Jimmy Chiale, the idea came up to do a collaboration with Matthew Napier, Master builder for Napalm Decks. In order to showcase the available work by Napes and custom longboard painting by Longboard Living artist Jimmy Chiale it somehow seemed like a good idea to paint on top of some extremely rare carbon. Its normal use is to line the inside of Rolls Royce jet engines, so why not a longboard? The deck is sure to be a show stopper and will be complete with custom built trucks by GFT. There are a few more surprises set up for this piece. Here are a few pics to tie you over.

Ambitious Launch x City Session

We would like to officially welcome Ambitious Boards to the Longboard Living family. We have received shipment (from Barrie, ON) of some fresh drop DH and freeride decks. The release party brought out plenty of riders from the Ontario Longboarding community and was followed by a city session.

















We bombed spadina 20 riders deep, floating over to the SKYDOME to hit the garage. Lots of laughs, a few spills and a lot more laughs!















Thanks to everyone who came out.

We hope to see you at our weekly Wednesday night Side Street Surfing session leaving 74 Oxford at 7pm.

Our next scheduled event is a photo exhibition in honor of the Toronto Board meeting ft. a selection of photos from Jonathan Nuss.
