The latest and greatest collaboration in skateboarding is on its way to Platform Distribution

From the minds of lead singer King Diamond and Chris Gregson comes a collaboration that we all wanted. Mercyful Fate X Blood Wizard skateboards deck collab!

Also a collab tee with Portal Dimension X Mercyful Fate.

This is the first release of the new truck size from Film Trucks. The 6.5 truck is big enough for a 9 inch wide deck. With 9 inch decks becoming more and more common, we need a bigger truck. They are also great for a shaped deck, classic re-issues, and more.
