There Skateboards "Darling" | Marbie 8.5" Deck
Not every graphic needs to explain itself. "Darling" is Marbie's signature deck for There Skateboards, painted by Blake Armstrong in his loose, watercolour-tattoo style — a spiked halo, an arrow through the head, red lips, and a stare that isn't asking permission. It's unapologetic art on a board that's just as serious about how it rides.
There Skateboards grew out of the Unity collective founded by Jeffrey Cheung, built from the ground up as a queer-owned, inclusive company that backs a team most of the industry overlooked for decades. The graphics are the loudest part of that mission — bold, personal, and never sanitised for a wider audience — but the decks underneath are built to the same standard as anything else on the wall.
WHY RIDE THE DARLING?
- Marbie Pro Model — A signature shape and graphic for There team rider Marbie.
- Art by Blake Armstrong — Original artwork, not a licensed reprint — There commissions its team's graphics directly from independent artists.
- 7-Ply Maple Construction — Standard North American maple layup for reliable pop and everyday durability.
- Random Top Veneer — Top ply colour varies deck to deck, so yours won't look identical to the next one off the rack.
- 8.5" Width — A popular all-round size with room for a stable, confident stance.

ABOUT THERE SKATEBOARDS
There Skateboards is a queer-owned company built out of the Unity skate crew, with a team and graphic roster that puts LGBTQ+ skaters front and centre in a scene that's historically left them out.

Why Buy from Twelve Board Store
Twelve Board Store has been riders selling to riders since 2013. We are not a generic retail chain — we are a specialist board sports retailer built around genuine product knowledge, real rider experience and the kind of after-sales support that only comes from a team that actually uses the gear they sell.
Every brand we stock, we ride. Every recommendation we make comes from real experience — on the mountain, in the park, on the street, and on the road. When you call us, you talk to someone who has been on a snowboard at Hotham last weekend or a skateboard in the carpark this morning. That is the difference between buying from Twelve and buying from a warehouse with a website.
We offer services that no online-only retailer can match. Our in-store workshop handles snowboard waxing and tuning, boot heat moulding, electric skateboard and e-bike repairs and assembly, and warranty support handled in-house rather than shipped offshore to a call centre. If something goes wrong with your gear, we fix it. If your boots don't fit, we sort it. If you ordered the wrong size, we swap it — no questions asked.
Our showroom at 435A Bridge Road Richmond stocks the full range across snowboards, bindings, boots, skateboards, longboards, electric skateboards, e-bikes, outerwear and accessories. We offer free shipping Australia-wide on orders over $89, AfterPay and Zip for flexible payment, and fast dispatch so your gear arrives when you need it.
Over a decade in business. More than 1,000 reviews. The most trusted specialist board store in Melbourne. If you need advice before you buy, call us on 03 9421 2293, visit us in-store, or contact us online — we'll get you sorted.
