What's the big idea?
Our goal is to provide a tool for the youth of our World to express their feelings & gain better understanding of the policies that guide their life. We believe that ultimate freedom is earned through understanding of the way our government protects us & becoming involved. Each person who buys a skateboard from us supports a “revolution” in modern thinking. We encourage skateboarders to become active in preventing the gradual decay of Liberty in America, and we hope to encourage the youth of our country to voice their opinions in a world where it has become more okay to follow than to lead.
Describe the nearest player in your field.
We will be spreading a similar message through our skateboard decks as companies like Obey Clothing, a propaganda related clothing company, & Dope Couture, an online shop & blog dedicated to supplying “exclusive” clothing & accessories. We will be competing with companies like Girl Skateboards.
How are you different from that player?
We provide a message through our equipment that is stronger than our competition as our designs can be interpreted in many different ways. We can inspire the youth to take a stand while our competition doesn’t always strive to do so through their equipment and accessories.
How's the world different with your idea in it?
We truly believe we can inspire the youth to stand up for their beliefs, and we want to provide a creative tool for them to do that. Through the use of social media, we can help people around America and the globe become more knowledgable on policies that effect every aspect of their lives.
Why are you the one to run with this idea?
I am incredibly passionate about politics myself and I am an avid skateboarder (although I am not the best). I love branching out to new people and figuring out ways to get our message out, not only through skateboards, but through music and clothing, among other things.

Great idea, Nathan! The convergence of capitalism, youth rebellion and civic engagement all wrapped up in a healthy recreation… Brilliant!

Thanks Evan!
UPDATE: We are currently doing a giveaway through our facebook and twitter and our advertising has produced 78,000 views and over 150 likes in the last day. We are producing an initial line of 25 decks, but we absolutely need funds to keep production up to par with the amount of orders we will be receiving on/after June 21st.
