Opera
Opera Skateboards is the brand founded in 2023 by Bill Weiss (skate industry veteran, ex-Madness) under the Sidewalk Distribution umbrella — born from the collapse of Dwindle. Weiss teamed up with Louie Barletta (ex-Enjoi), Bod Boyle and Steve Douglas to build Sidewalk Distribution, which carries Opera alongside Slappy Trucks and Jacuzzi Unlimited.
Heritage — out of the ruins of Dwindle
After the collapse of Dwindle Distribution (long-time home of Enjoi, Madness, Blind, Cliché), Bill Weiss launched Sidewalk Distribution in 2023. Opera is his own brand inside that structure. The name comes from Weiss's inspiration around opera as "a performance of one" — a poetic metaphor for the deeply personal yet communal nature of skateboarding.
