About Blind Skateboards

Blind is one of the most important skate brands ever started. Mark Gonzales, the Gonz, founded it in 1989 under Steve Rocco's World Industries after leaving Vision. He chose the name as a dig at his old sponsor, and he designed the Blind logo himself.

In 1991 Blind released Video Days, directed by Spike Jonze and featuring Gonzales, Guy Mariano, Jason Lee, Rudy Johnson and Jordan Richter. It's still regularly ranked among the most influential skate videos ever made, and it helped shape modern street skating. The Reaper became Blind's signature character and has stayed on its boards for decades. More than 35 years on, a Blind complete still carries that history.

FAQs

Who is an 8.125" skateboard best for?
An 8.125" deck is a full-size board that sits right in the sweet spot for most teens and adults. It's wide enough for stable landings and park skating, but still nimble enough for street and flip tricks. Go 8.25" or wider for more stability on transition. For younger kids, a mid or mini size (7.0"–7.5") is usually easier to control.

Is this a good skateboard for beginners?
Yes. Blind's First Push completes are built as entry-level boards from a real skate brand. Softer bushings make turning easier, and it comes fully assembled. It's a big step up from cheap department-store boards, which use lower-quality parts that make learning harder.

What is Blind First Push?
First Push is Blind's complete skateboard range for new and progressing skaters. Each 7-ply birch deck is single-pressed and bonded with Blind's Stiff Glue Extra. They come with Tensor trucks, softer bushings for easy turning, Blind wheels and carbon steel bearings, all pre-assembled.

What can I ride this skateboard for?
Learning to push and cruise, skateparks, ramps and bowls, and general street skating. The 8.125" width and 14.25" wheelbase lean towards stability, which suits transition and carving.

Does it come ready to ride?
Yes. It arrives fully assembled with griptape, trucks, wheels and bearings installed. Just check the truck tightness to suit you and go skate.
