This is where Factory 13 separates itself from the standard skateboard company. Individual, custom board designs handmade in our shop to the customers specifications. We are also capable of running O.E.M. (private label) boards, limited edition decks in small quantities, as well as stocking shops with our model boards. Board orders can be quoted by emailing your information and details to danny@factory13.org or by calling us directly. Some of our board options can be properly mixed and used with other unique options to really build a great, one of a kind skateboard.
