About us
Established in the summer of 2020; Greenville started as a woodworking experiment which emerged out of the garage of my parents home. Used skateboard decks were up-cycled into cruisers and given a second life. (see video below)
Inspired by the origins of skateboarding and surfing; our boards have a classic feel with a modern design.
Our current collection is now manufactured in Huntington Beach, CA and designed by us here at Greenville. Each board is pressed with canadian maple and birch wood and cut to our desired shape. some of the boards are stained and all are laser engraved here in Texas by a local wood engraver. we paint the boards in house and apply a clear grip to the top of the boards using recycled materials. every board is carefully designed and handled with detail and care.
Founded by Texas skateboarder Steven Brooks.
Skateboarding has always been my outlet, my escape. Whether it was the countless lessons learned or exploring the places I normally wouldn’t go; skating has always provided this opportunity to preserve the inner child that we should never let fade.
The skateboarding community values itself on being unique from other cultures or activities. The debate between whether it’s a sport or an art form is constant between all that participate. Regardless of how you perceive it, I firmly believe that skateboarding has the ability to truly inspire a generation of passionate and talented people.
INSPIRE OTHERS TO INSPIRE THEMSELVES.
It is our mission to inspire those who feel called to take the road less traveled. To embark on an adventure to pursue their potential by instilling a spirit of strength and courage to face whatever challenges may come.
We hope to demonstrate that falling isn’t failure. That life’s greatest lessons can be seen through something as simple as riding a skateboard.
As a Christian, I see the importance of spreading positivity and encouragement in a world distorted by vanity and competition. We are all racing to the same finish lines when our lives have been called to different paths. Inspiring people to follow their passions and talents that God has instilled in them motivates me everyday. It’s a dream to live in a world where people follow the narrow path regardless of the challenges they face.
The Eight pointed fin logo represents those who are connected to God through the spirit of life. Eight is designated to be the number of regeneration or resurrection and denotes a new beginning. The parallel between the fin is it meaning end or complete. As Jesus says, “it is finished”.
Greenville is the place where the grass is always as green as it should be. A place where you don’t have to imagine if it’s greener somewhere else, because it’s everything you wanted it to be.
The place inspired by God’s promises to His children. A world that we recognize and one in which all things that we love will be present but no longer marred and twisted by sin.
