Unabomber Hardware
Unabomber Hardware

Unabomber is a skateboarding company based in Birmingham. Started on the 4th July 1997 by Pete Hellicar, Unabomber has been a strong part of the healthy UK industry. The skateboarding products are of very high quality and are one of the more exciting and appealing decks to look at on a skatestore wall.

Pro boards tend to come as part of a series, such as the recent 'Mentalist' range, where the graphics were handled by Edinburgh's own Brian McFeeley.

Pro decks come in all sizes, from 7.5 to 8.25. Team decks include the world famous 'Gimp' 'DLX', 'Up The Rebels' and the 'Una DIY', which is a blank, painted deck and a Gimp stencil, for you to 'Do It Yourself'.

The new DVD, 'Up the Rebels', has been selling well and shows off the whole team's talent, as well as including all the previous Una films.

As for the wood of the decks - you'll love it! It's got all the pop you'll need and all the durability you'd expect. All in all a great purchase.

Pro decks £50
Team models £45
DIY decks £40
