Drips Series by Geoff McFetridge | Chocolate Skateboards

“Take yourself back to 1997. A young art student from Cal Arts is at Chocolate HQ in Torrance, California pouring chocolate sauce into a foam-core mold. Geoff McFetridge is working on his first board series for Chocolate. McTNT, as we called him, was introduced to the Art Dump by fellow Cal Arts alumni and Girl in-house artists, Bucky Fukumoto and Johannes Gamble. Johannes video taped the process and later created the animation for the intros in MOUSE. Fast forward almost 30 years. A now much respected and sought after artist, McFetridge heeds the call to pour more Chocolate Drips. Thank you, Geoff.” – Andy Jenkins

Geoff’s new Drip series is now available at skate shops worldwide and HERE.

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.
