New Ad For Curly Grrlz Skateboards Debuts


Curly Grrlz Skateboards debuted a new advertisement in Concrete Wave and ForTheKrew Skateboard Magazine. Editor Tony Redington of FTK reviewed the Graf Deck in the most recent issue and said, "If you are a girl skater, chances are you have brothers that skate, and chances are you get their hand me down decks...but as you progress...it's time to get your own set-up, it's time to get on a Curly Grrlz board." Thanks Tony!!!

Surf Expo


We just got back from showing off Curly Grrlz stuff at the Surf Expo in Florida. If you're not sure what the Surf Expo is, the only thing we can tell you, is that it is held in a huuuge convention center and has everything you could ever want from Skateboards and Surf (and a bunch of other cool sports.)

As soon as we get unpacked we'll get you a full story...So stay tuned.

Hip Clipz Artist of the Month-Tsunami Bomb


Again...We kinda stumbled upon Tsunami Bomb (TB) and noticed they were on the Warped Tour. We immediately fell for the tune Being Alright and knew we had to tell you guys about it and let you hear it. They're from California and their lead singer is a girl.

Enjoy TB on www.curlygrrlz.com and check out their site www.tsunamibomb.com.

In Our Thoughts and Prayers

Our thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by the devastation in Louisiana, Missippi and the surrounding areas. However, specifically in our thoughts are Amy Hilkirk and her family and friends. Amy recently signed on as our sales representative in the New Orleans Louisiana area. We have not been able to reach and we haven't heard from Amy since just before Katrina...
