These Rolling Stone skateboards bring together the closely related worlds of skateboarding, music and art. When skateboarding first took, so did Rolling Stone Magazine and many of the [classic rock artists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jukebox-x-the-rolling-stones) that the magazine covered. Now all this is rolled into one piece of nostalgic and functional skateboard art.

Rolling Stone photographer Baron Wolman teamed up with Boom-Art to produce the selection of decks. Each one features classic photos from Rolling Stone Magazine that capture the counter-culture of the 60s and 70s that was so influential in today's music. Each of the decks is [hand-screened](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kai-and-sunny-1), meaning these decks are hard to get your hands on.

These Rolling Stone skateboards are a testament to the ever-evolving [skateboard culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/united-through-skateboarding).
