JFA Skateboards

Do you remember the catalogues that came with the old JFA records? Most of them also offered JFA skateboards in various sick shapes. I always wanted one of those, but they don´t pop up that often nowadays and I am pretty sure that I don´t want / can´t afford an original one.

Good luck,  Factory 13 is offering hand-made JFA boards in three different shapes.

And you can choose the colors!! Check out mine in light-blue and lime-green. Fits good next to the McRAD board, huh?!?

Here´s what Factory 13 writes about Factory 13:

“FACTORY13 – EXPERIMENTAL SKATEBOARD MANUFACTURING: We are an independent skateboard design and manufacturing company. All of our skateboards are handmade one at a time by experienced machinists and artists, we silk screen our graphics and mix the inks in house. We represent the underground skate/punk culture.  Style, quality, craftsmanship, creativity, and independence is our mission statement.”

That´s how the old boards looked like. Placebo Records catalogue from ca. 1988.
