Deathwish Skateboards: The Archive.


Welcome to the archive - with over 1400 entries from all of the team (past & present) - the archive itself is always growing, there may be some graphics/information missing. Contact me on IG @deathwisharchive to submit.


Back in 2008, professional skateboarders Erik Ellington & Jim Greco (both pro for Baker Skateboards team at the time) left simultaneously to form Deathwish Skateboards.

In a 2010 interview, Ellington stated: "The idea came about around 2007, about a year before we sold our first stuff in 2008. Jim used to call the house Antwuan and some other guys lived at “The Deathwish Compound”, because it was kinda shady - like the place the gang stayed at in the movie. It just stuck and when we were thinking of names, that one fit."
And in a later interview: "The Baker team was getting so big that we thought having another company for people to get on and go pro for would be good, so we started Deathwish.

As of September 2024, the Deathwish Skateboards team currently consists of:
Pro: Erik Ellington, Jim Greco, Neen Williams, Jon Dickson, Taylor Kirby, Jamie Foy, Jake Hayes, Pedro Delfino, Brian O'Dwyer & Yuri Facchini
AM: Victoria Ruesga, Noah Pollard, Sean O'Connor, & Davey Styles

The archive has been setup as a way for collectors, fans of the company, or even the skaters themselves - to view the catalog of deck releases. You may find that there is some information missing, some of the older releases are harder to find. 


Special thanks to Erik Ellington for the support and approval of this project - thanks to Jordan Anthony & Eric Ramos for the help along the way.
