Since the sport of street cruising is growing more and more every day, it is important to start being aware of your skateboard and longboard options; enter these Loyal Dean longboards. Beautifully crafted and eco-friendly, they will surely make all of your fellow skateboarders and longboarders mighty jealous.
Designed by Loyal Pierone and Dean Perry, the Loyal Dean longboards came about more as an accident than anything else, like many other great discoveries out there. The longtime friends both worked for a custom door company and constantly had a ton of excess premium wood on their hands. One day Perry decided to use some of it to craft a skateboard for his daughter and, from there, received so much positive responses that these Loyal Dean longboards were born.
