A new chapter from the Baker family.
Deathwish Skateboards was created in 2008 by professional skateboarders Jim Greco and Erik Ellington. Built under the Bakerboys Distribution umbrella, the company became Baker’s darker, harder-edged sister brand—grounded in street skating, memorable videos, uncompromising team riders, and graphics that never tried to play it safe.
WHY IT STILL MATTERS
Built around the way the team skates.
Deathwish earned its place through powerful street skating and a roster of distinct personalities. From Erik Ellington’s early influence to modern standouts such as Jamie Foy, the brand continues to represent commitment, risk, and the belief that skateboarding should feel personal—not manufactured.
