Stacks Coming To Agenda Huntington Beach this August

Originally started in 2000, Stacks was a brand consructed to embody the creative side of skateboarding, and became an influential part of west coast art and visual culture. Around 2006, Stacks had slipped under the radar. Until 2009, when original founder Michael Leon partnered with skateboarding legend Reese Forbes to relaunch as an authentic skate brand with a new focus on quality, style, attention to detail, and authenticity.

Combining Reese's skating and experience with board performance innovation with the graphic heritage of Stacks, they set out to create products for skateboarders whose taste level is higher than what is currently available in a skateshop.
