About BOARDZ.COM

BOARDZ.COM History
BOARDZ.COM was created on June 20, 1996 as an expression of my lifestyle. It was a blog before there were blogs. My lifestyle was connected to the board sports scenes and so BoardZ also turned into a multi-board sport webzine for board riders. Over the years, many have contributed and many thanks and heaps of gratitude to all the OG contributors. BOARDZ has stayed true to its roots and still is a reflection of the life that all the board sports enthusiasts around the world and I live.
Ride BOARDZ and Prosper!

BOARDZ.COM Mission Statement

BOARDZ.COM is a “for profit” Boards Sports Mecca that provides advertiser supported free information, entertainment, and community for board sports enthusiasts. We will also always include free advertisements to charitable organizations and 5% of our profits will also be donated to charity. Additionally, BoardZ.com does all we can to help the environment through our actions and choices. Our web host uses green energy (wind) to run our servers which certainly helps on our carbon footprint. We also use bicycles and mass transit whenever possible while we focus our energies locally in the Santa Cruz and Tahoe regions. These NorCal areas have networks that span the globe and with the power of the internet we can all share knowledge and learn from each other easier than ever before possible.

Board sports is a lifestyle where all the different flavors inter-mix. Tony Hawk surfs. Shaun White can surf well and is a ripping vert-skater as well as snowboarder. Gerry Lopez snowboards, SUPS, and can still surf like a champ. Wakeboarders like to wake-surf for some low impact fun. Even though these are all individual sports, we are all connected by the creative process of imaging, happily craving, and the bliss of being in the moment of the act; then mix sports and/or repeat for a happy lifestyle.

Ride BOARDZ and Prosper
