The Rise Of Lift Longboards

Lift Longboards began in February 2011 in the back yard of my house in East San Diego County. My new friend Mike had built a crude press at home and made himself a few boards. He showed me how he built them, I bought the materials to make a press and we pressed our first board, The Castor. The board was solid and had a functional shape. The shape was derived from a few other boards. We liked an aspect of one board and an aspect of another and so on. We put them together drew the shape and pressed the lams. This board, however, has such radical concave that it was almost un-ride-able. But the more we tried it, the more it grew on us and soon we were riding, cruising, and sliding it at our local spots.

The name Lift is in reference to assistance (giving someone a lift). Giving back/helping out is the basis for which Lift was started and we are dedicated to just that. We strive to give back to/conserve the environment and the American way of life. We are going to make a difference in the world, how big a difference we make will depend on the amount of support we get from riders. We will touch the lives of many very deserving people and there is no better way to get your own Lift than to be a part of Lifting another in need. So come on, get your Lift Longboard and make a difference with us.

Born and raised in San Diego, CA, we've seen the ups and downs, ins and outs of the skateboard industry. We feel that our timing is perfect to launch Lift Longboards and we hope that we can give you a Lift on one of our boards. We love all aspects of the long board skateboarding industry/lifestyle and this love and dedication is transferred into each and every board we make.
