MAKI LONGBOARDS

I recently spent some time with Erik Maki of Maki Longboards and photographed him making one of his skateboards. Erik is a great guy who makes beautiful boards with a great attention to detail. The boards are hand made hand shaped boards. He even makes his own plywood for the blanks. Here is a peek into the process. oh yeah and some fun riding shots too.

My Morning with Louis Zamperini
