Unity

Unity Skateboards sees itself as a queer skateboard community with different skill levels. Making inclusivity a topic and promoting it within the skateboard scene is especially important. Unity is queer specific, but addresses all marginalized groups. The goal is to support each other and provide a safe and comfortable space - for queer skaters as well as allies.

The founders of Unity Skateboards are Jeffrey Cheung and Gabriel Ramirez. What started as a small crew, with Cheung handing out hand-painted pro boards to his fellow skaters, developed into a very important and indispensable part of the skateboarding world, also due to networking in social media and queer skate meetups.
