The Hamboards Quiver

Hamboards On Mars
Often times we find ourselves asking probing questions like,
Why does my face hurt?
Does this make me look fat?
Is it possible that I could be an aardvark in disguise?

Almost Something
Just a normal day of wave sliding and pavement riding with the Hamboards crew, using the longboards that make the transition between skate and surf seamless.

Hamboards Number 0009
Hamboard Number 0009 showed up at the shop a few days ago. It was the first board we ever sold and is over 12 years old. We didn't even have a logo back then so Dad had a friend paint a little one-off-er on it. After all these years it has held up like a champ and we all took it for a ride to see how it held up. We are beginning to realize we can't guarantee that you will last longer than your Hamboard.

The very first Ham video
Time warp back to the early days. Back before any of the smaller boards, before we used bamboo and before any of us had discovered what a hair cut was, we were riding the Classics and having a great time.

Hamboards Girls | Shades of Summer
Being a family business run by 5 sons, over the years the female aspect of Hamboards may have been slightly lacking. It only took Gus getting married for us to finally pull together a video entirely devoted to the celebration of Hamboarding Girls. We hope you like it.

The Bamboo Classic
Learn everything you want to know about The Bamboo Classic. It's different from our handpainted Classics mostly in appearance but there is slightly more flex to them. The Classic allows you fully experience what is like to ride an old-school longboard surfboard, like no other skateboard can.
