Powell Peralta

Based in California since 1978, the brand is a union of skills between George Powell (an engineer who made his first skateboard in 1957) and Stacy Peralta (one of the very fisrt professional skateboarder). Powell has always stood out for its spirit of innovation and is one of the few brands to own its own factories for the production of decks and wheels. Powell's graphics, such as the Ripper or the Dragon, are an integral part of skate culture.
