Legendary Television and Bear Walker Industries collaborated on a limited-edition skateboard that is inspired by a Netflix Original — Lost in Space. The TV series follows the story of a family who struggles to survive on an alien planet. The sci-fi-honoring product is dubbed the 'Lost in Space J2 Beacon' and makes for a wonderful theme-appropriate gift for fans. Not only does the collaboration commemorate the plot, it embraces a love for science fiction and expresses "a desire to break the boundaries of what a longboard should look like."
The limited-edition skateboard boasts a detailed design that directly references the narrative — from Will Robinson's spacesuit to the Jupiter 2. The Legendary Television x Bear Walker Industries collaboration is made with high-quality maple wood and completed with top-of-the-line hardware.
