Parra x Enjoi Skateboards by Tim Yu

Illustrator Parra Rockwell has been producing work at a prolific pace the past couple years with brands slapping his distinct hand-drawn graphics and lettering on everything from sneakers to album covers and t-shirts. The only logical next step (other than a laptop case) is to design a skateboard deck.

A skater himself, Parra knows a thing or two about artist-designed skateboards. Lucky for us he recently teamed up with Enjoi to create a fresh edition of five new decks due out this Fall. All depict his slightly askew sense of humor combined with the aesthetics he's known for. Keep a look out for these in the coming weeks at both Rockwell and Enjoi. Like most of what he touches, they are bound to go quick so check back often.
