Gator paw group chat

Gator Paw started as a small group of friends getting together once a week to rent out a local indoor skatepark during the winter months.

Two years later the group chat is over a dozen people deep. From weekly summer kickball games, to working on diy skate spots, to birthday boards and fundraiser merch; Gator Paw has become both an extended family and a recharging creative outlet for a lot of us.

All My Friends Are Pro

When I was a kid I had my fake skateboard company and dreamed of turning all my friends pro. Fast forward almost 20 years and Gator Paw has given me the chance to bring that excitement to life. Throughout 2021 I created graphics and had one-off boards printed for each skater in the chat and “turned them Pro” with a secret reveal on each of their birthdays.

Broken Foley

A group chat trip to the mountain and a bunch of people who haven’t been on snow in a long long time, what could go wrong? A broken collar bone on one of the first runs of the day of course.

To help give Brogan some peace of mind during his time out from work, I put together a preorder for some tees, stickers, and a one-off, Brogan-signed, Broken Foley skateboard.
