Description
The "Penny For A Purpose" organisation and the Tony Hawk foundation have joined forces to create this limited edition collection of Penny Cruiser boards. Both are committed to making skating accessible to everyone.
Penny For a Purpose states: "The aim is to collaborate with global non-profits and iconic artists to raise awareness in the communities they affect, support their projects, and inspire hope through skateboarding with young people worldwide."
Tony Hawk Foundation mentions: "Our objective is to help provide public skateparks in low-income areas, and – more significantly – to equip groups and communities with the necessary resources to advocate for skateparks locally."
These Penny cruisers showcase the Full Skull graphic from the well-known Tony Hawk brand Birdhouse, alongside birdhouse/penny graphics on the griptape.
Plastic cruiser skateboards like these first appeared in the mid '70s, when plastic-injection moulded skateboards became some of the most fashionable skateboards available! With Penny boards, you can make sharp turns on a compact surface, making them ideal for navigating through city centres. Moreover, the small size of these cruiser boards ensures they remain unobtrusive.
