Cool Hunting Video Presents: DL Skateboards

It's well known that hiding behind the facades of many buildings in Brooklyn, NY are an endless array of companies producing artisanal pickles and locally designed clothes but rarely can you wander down a street to find a product being made out on the concrete. DL Skateboards is a unique young company that makes custom, handmade skate decks on the sidewalk outside a Greenpoint apartment building and in a retrofitted box truck acquired in New Hampshire. The couple behind the brand, Lauren Andino and Derek Mabra, have been skateboarding most of their lives and their passion and love for the sport drive their small business forward, producing fantastic cruisers modeled after 60's classics. In our latest video we found the couple out on the street shaping decks for one of their final runs before moving to California.

You guys rock, I just picked up one of your boards and I love it. Such a smooth ride, I actually got this out of a a skate shop in downtown Manhattan, but I hope to catch you guys before you move to Cali so I can buy one from you two in person. Thanks again for the perfect city cruiser.

That gorgeous young lady should clean up and put on some nice clothes. Then she should flag down the first Porsche, Bentley, BMW etc. that she sees, jump in and NEVER LOOK BACK!
