ĭeathwish released a tribute skateboard deck in June 2014 to provide Dixon with a financial base to rebuild his life after his release from prison. So if that goes through I should be getting out the beginning of July. And with these milestone credits you can earn six weeks, which means 42 days off. They say the 23rd, but I’ve been in this high-school-diploma program so I can get my high school diploma and you get milestone credits. Dixon also explained that he may be released earlier:

The 8.5 size team deck of this series shows a picture of Charles Bronson and his gun taken from the Death Wish movie as an obvious reference to their namesake. In 2016, Deathwish releases a line of seven decks entitled VHS Wasteland. Deathwish Skateboards logo is the cross symbol sported by the Street Punk Gang in the movie Death Wish 3. Deathwish Skateboards brand name is inspired by Vigilante justice cult film series Death Wish starring Charles Bronson. Deathwish ĭeathwish Skateboards company draws its inspiration from 70s and 80s cult movies and kitsch magazine cover artwork. The video appeared on the "PWBC News" series that Palace produces. The Palace skateboard brand, which won the "Brand of the Year" award at Europe's Brighton Trade Show in January 2012, announced a distribution deal with Bakerboys in July 2014. In the early 2000’s, Reynolds and fellow professional skateboarders, Jim Greco and Erik Ellington, established Bakerboys Distribution, a company that distributes many brands, some of which are owned by past and current Baker riders:įormerly with the Blitz distribution company, Baker's distribution was newly managed by Bakerboys in 2011. Former team members included Antwuan Dixon, Jim Greco, Erik Ellington, Leo Romero, and Terry Kennedy. Members of the company's professional skating team include Andrew Reynolds, Kader Sylla, Riley Hawk, Elissa Steamer, Tristan Funkhouser, Zach Allen, Tyson Peterson, Rowan Zorilla, Kevin Long, Jacopo Carozzi, Casper Brooker, and Justin Figueroa. The series features video productions from the Baker company, such as "Weekend Warriors," "Piled Out," "Trash Compactor," and "Dumb Ass Park Footy". The RIDE Channel, a YouTube skateboarding channel cofounded by Hawk, announced on Mathat a new series, entitled "Baker Zone", would commence on March 18, 2013.
Riley Hawk, son of professional skateboarder and company owner Tony Hawk, joined the Baker team in 2012 after riding for his father's company, Birdhouse.
Romero was awarded Thrasher magazine's "Skateboarder of the Year" trophy in 2010. Leo Romero left the Baker team in April 2009, and his departure led to a great amount of discussion among skateboarders and fans. In regard to the original Baker logo, Reynolds has credited the design to co-founder J Strickland and stated that it represented a motley company that consisted of talented skateboarders. As of 2008, the brand was the top-selling brand under the Blitz Distribution umbrella. In 2007, the skateboard deck brand signed a distribution deal with Blitz Distribution, the company that, at the time, was distributing Birdhouse and other brands, such as Fury and Hook-Ups (Blitz had originally been formed by Per Welinder and Hawk to distribute their own products). In 1999 Reynolds went to a secret lunch meeting with Tony Hawk & Per Welinder and started Baker Skateboards without J.Strickland's knowledge or any of the original riders. The company's main products are skateboard decks, soft goods, accessories, and wheels. Baker Skateboards is an American skateboarding company founded in 2000 by professional skateboarder Andrew Reynolds.
