Screamin Inc

Another video about screen printing skateboards. This one not so much about technique, but more about philosophy. Screaming Inc, (I thought they used to be Screaming Squeegees) are undeniably the kings of screenprinted skateboards. If you doubt me, just take a look at anything rolling out of Pocket Pistols. I pull a decent squeegee, but these guys make me feel inadequate to the point I’d consider interning even though I don’t make a living selling skateboards. Skilled artisans I tell you.

  1. The logic on a screenprinted board being better for sliding is pushing it a bit, but I prefer that to heat transfers any day. I just prefer the way they look and feel.

  2. Definitely an art form. It requires a totally different approach to the design process when you want to separate the colors… Also the act of printing itself is a skill unto it’s own. This is coming from a guy who has weakly played around with making my own t-shirts and is now the Creative Director for a printed electronics company that uses a screen press that costs 3/4 of a million dollars. Designing the art, making the screens and then actually printing the crap is extremely cool. I love the stuff that you do Randy and honestly, you’re too humble!
