2007 SUMMER SKATEBOARD TEAM

At the Gold Crown Computer Clubhouse, we’re always trying to use what members are already interested in and take it to new levels – over this last year, we’ve seen a lot of members with a huge interest in skateboarding. Inspired by last summer’s youth entrepreneurship project, One Way Records, several of our skater members spearheaded the creation of Mutant Skateboards. Working together, they created a team name, a logo, and created a plan for the summer. Each member designed their own board graphic, then learned screenprinting to screen the members’ images onto their own boards.

We also spent the summer honing our skateboarding skills taking four fieldtrips to local skate parks in Lakewood and Denver. Members have video-recorded all their trips to the skate park, and are currently in the middle of editing a video. Look for the release of the Mutant Boards skate team video in the next couple months!
