Plan B Skateboards
79
In 1991 some of the best pros wanted to start something new that nobody has seen before! They called it Plan B Skateboards! Mike Tenasky was the leader of Plan B. He got some of the best pros at the time including Danny Way, Matt Hensley, Mike Carroll, Sean Scheffey, and Rick Howard.
Plan B Skateboards took over the skating world with their awesome videos, their amazing boards, and other products! They also added Pat Duffy, Colin Mckay, Sal Barbier, Ronnie Bertino, and Jeremy Wray through out the early 90's.
In 1994 tragedy struck Plan B skateboards, when Mike Tenasky was killed in a tragic car accident. Plan B Skateboards was then left in the hands of Danny Way and Colin Mckay. Plan B Skateboards eventually died out. Until now!
In 2005 with some help from Syndrome Distribution Plan B was reborn! The new Plan B team included Danny Way, Colin Mckay, Paul Rodriguez, Ryan Gallant, PJ Ladd, Brian Wenning, Jereme Rogers, and in January 2007 Ryan Sheckler! Plan B Skateboards is once again the best in the business!

Good Hub keep it up.
Great skate boarding videos. I thought that it was illegal to skateboard on the Great Wall.
Wow, have not been reading much about skate board since like a decade ago! This is real interesting article! I guess Singapore is not so into skateboard as the states...
sweet stunts
!!! If only the article had been available earlier! Thank you. I know who it is going to interest.
I love watching skateboarders. My grandson is an avid skateboarder and can really let it all hang out. Amazing moves these kids can perform on a good skateboard.
I wish these were around when I was his age!
I will pass this along to him! Great stuff!
Wow some really great skateboarding videos! My nephew is a huge lover of skateboarding so just sent this to him.
That's an awesome name. Almost sounds like a 'backup' though :)
Great hub! My son will love this, especially the video!
I used be an avid skateboarding as well, until I took a nasty spill going down a steep hill. I guess you could say I was past my prime. Anyway, I havent been on a skateboard since.
This is a great hub on skateboarding. Did you see the latest success magazine? Tony Hawk and his skateboard related business was the cover story.
What a really enjoyable page that i could say took me back to my youth lol. My father actually made me a skateboard (early 80's) lol. Yup!! made it from a piece of shaped board and rollerskate wheels. The board worked a treat except when you wanted to turn lol. Many a wall was hit!!
VERY interesting hub ! Keep up the good work ! Come say hi to a fellow skater !!
