For the Love of Skateboarding
Chocolate teamed up with Bay Area artist John Powers McNicholas, a close friend of Raven Tershy, for this latest series. Known for working across various mediums, JP recently showcased his art at Break Free in Oakland, CA.
For this project, he used stencils to create unique boards for Erik, Stevie, Raven, and Vinny. Each deck comes in two sizes, alongside matching apparel that rounds out the collection.

When Keenan passed, we set aside all inventory bearing his name – sadness all around. Among these were several dozen board boxes from the City Series 2, labeled Milton. For over 16 years, they remained untouched, until Crailtap recognized they deserved a better home. They belonged among those who cherished Keenan’s spirit – those who shared laughter and admiration alongside him.
Now, as we celebrate 30 Chocolate Years, the moment feels right to share these vintage Richard Mulder decks with the world. This release features new old stock, only 200 available, each screen printed with art by Evan Hecox.
Crailtap spent a few days in SF before heading to San Mateo, for the release of Atlas Skateshop’s collection with Evan Hecox and a preview of the 30 Chocolate Years exhibit, coming this fall… Featuring Vincent Alvarez, Kenny Anderson, James Capps, Dougie George, Erik Herrera, Stevie Perez and Jordan Trahan.
Crailtap met up with Skylar Blum to talk about his new “Pixel City” series for Chocolate Skateboards. You can check out the full collection now available HERE.
Atlas can’t overstate how we truly appreciate their local community, and the whole Chocolate team for coming out to the Bay Area to celebrate the collaboration project as well as the kickoff for their 30th year. Here’s a recap of the evening event at the shop with a preview of their “30 Years of Chocolate” exhibit along with live music by CMG.
