To celebrate our success from this past 2011-2012 academic year, NC Skate is teaming with Simplistix Skateboards to release our first ever limited edition club model board. Artwork was done by NCSU student and club member Ian Cochrane. This is a preview of what the board is going to look like. This is not the final product, as there are a few touch-ups to be made but other than that feast your eyes on history.
The boards will be sold at a variety of shops throughout NC(thanks for your support!) at the price of a typical board in the shop.
More importantly we will be launching a 'Kickstarter' program to raise money to mass produce these boards and other NC Skate items. The link will be up within the next couple weeks. For anyone not familiar with Kickstarter, it is a online service for small business start-up and aspiring artists, filmmakers, etc. We set a $ amount goal and a deadline where anyone can make donations to the club. There are different levels of donations, where for each amount donated you receive compensation in the form of boards, shirts, shoutouts at our events, stickers, and/or you will be put on a special donor list that will visible on NC State's Campus and online. However, if our goal is not meet by the deadline, we are dropped from Kickstarter and you will be refunded ANY and ALL donations which you had made... like it never happened... But we know that wont happen and NC Skate will execute like we always do!
Stay posted for updates and we encourage everyone to give their opinion on the graphic in the comment box below.
