Heritage — Bakerboys, Greco and Ellington

Deathwish Skateboards was started in 2007 by Jim Greco and Erik Ellington, with Andrew "The Boss" Reynolds (boss of Baker Skateboards) as the third co-founder. The brand sits inside Bakerboys Distribution — same family as Baker, Shake Junt and Heroin.

The name comes from the Death Wish movie series (1974–1994), based on Brian Garfield's novel. The deck graphics quote that exact 70s and 80s feel — horror kitsch, punk tattoo, gothic typography, black-and-red skull logos. If that's too much for you, that's the point.

The Deathwish Pro Team

Alongside founders Greco and Ellington, the current Deathwish lineup is a mixed bag of heavy hitters:

• Jamie Foy — handrail destroyer and Thrasher SOTY 2017
• Jon Dickson — pro since the Deathwish Video (2013)
• Neen Williams — known for symmetrical boards and dreadlocks
• Pedro Delfino — speed freak from Brazil
• Jake Hayes — technical skateboard magician
• Taylor Kirby, Slash, Julian Davidson — rounding out the lineup

Which Deathwish Decks and Apparel?

• Decks — available from 7.5" to 8.75". Classics: Gang Logo, Credits, All Screwed Up, plus rotating pro models and series like VHS Wasteland.
• T-shirts and long sleeves — mostly Gang Logo prints or gothic lettering, streetwear-ready.
• Hoodies and sweatshirts — daily-beater pieces in black, white and the occasional red accent.
• Caps and beanies — Gang-Logo patches, snapbacks, cuff beanies.
• Hardware — bolts and small accessories, often paired with Shake Junt in sets.

The Deathwish Videography

If you want to understand Deathwish, watch the videos. Baker Has a Deathwish (2008) was the premiere and ran as a Baker 3 spin-off. The Deathwish Video (2013) was the first standalone full-length and proved the brand could stand without its sister label. UNCROSSED (2021) is the latest full part — tricks at the highest level, no compromises on the soundtrack.

Are the graphics PETA-friendly / lifestyle clean?
No, this is hardcore skate brand aesthetic with shock value. If you want clean lifestyle graphics, look at Girl or Chocolate instead.
