Dissent Skateboard Team
Since 2009 Dissent have tried to support local (and not so local) skateboarders however we can through our social platforms and helping with skateboarding product. The Skateboard Team brings together a crew of passionate skaters who push the boundaries of park and street skating. As a team, they represent our commitment to supporting the skate community and driving the culture, helping to make skateboarding inclusive to all.
