Brothers Peter, Stephen and Matt Hill grew up skating here, started importing boards out of Fitzroy in 1985, launched the Globe brand in 1994 and added their own skateboards, cruisers and longboards in 2010. The company is still based in Port Melbourne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStill led by the Hill family, Globe makes its decks and trucks in its own factory. Its cruisers and longboards are known for epoxy-pressed maple decks, soft cruiser wheels and bold, art-led graphics, all set up as ready-to-ride completes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho is a 39\" longboard best for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA 39\" longboard suits teens and adults who want maximum stability for cruising and longer distances.
