April OG Logo Complete Skateboard black & Gold

The April Wordmark, Dipped in Gold

April Skateboards keeps it simple here: its own name, mixed upper and lowercase, run as an editorial wordmark that reads closer to a fashion house than a standard skate shop graphic. The tortoiseshell-style gold fill, marbled like acetate, breaks from the usual flat colours of skate graphics and gives the deck an almost luxury finish, backed up by the thin pinstripe running around the edge of the board. Founded by Shane O'Neill, the brand built its identity on this kind of graphic restraint, staying away from the skulls and aggressive motifs that dominate the space, to reach riders who now treat skateboarding as a genuine style statement.

This April OG Logo complete skateboard rolls straight out of the box: silver trucks, April wheels, bearings and hardware all come pre-mounted, no setup needed. The deck runs 100% Canadian maple, the benchmark skateboard hardwood, for a stiff, impact-resistant build that holds up over time. April wheels are matched to each deck width, 50mm for the 8", 52mm for the 8.25", 54mm for the 8.5", all at a 99A duro, striking a solid balance between grip and roll as you take on different terrain. Abec 5 bearings and 7/8" Allen bolts round out a reliable setup, built to last without giving up on precision.
