Our hearts desire
is to reach the youth of this world by using the gifts
God has given us
When we first started out
2 years ago God was really putting it on all of our hearts
to step out in faith and trust Him. We knew we wanted to
be something more than just another board company or Christian
entertainment. We wanted to make an impact on the culture
of skateboarding.
We originally decided to
call ourselves Faith Skateboards. We had even sent in our
designs for boards to be printed. About a week later we
received an email from an existing shop in Alabama with
the same name. But God is good and our board manufacturer
turned out to be a little behind. They were just getting
ready to print our boards when we called to stop the order.
After a lot of new name suggestions and even more prayer,
Jud Heald was reading from John 3:30 which says, “I
must decrease, that He may increase.” Then Dave Nelson
called up on the phone with an idea. “What do you
think of Untitled?” he asked. Needless to say there
was no more searching after that! We wanted the glory to
go to the Lord and not be concerned with raising ourselves
up. So many people are consumed with titles and getting
ahead, we just wanted to further the kingdom. Because Dave’s
an amazing designer and is always coming up with original
ideas, you’ll see that on our logo all of the letters
are distorted except the T in the center with looks like
a cross. That’s where our focus is. Dave also came
up with our catchphrase, “Everything we are and everything
we have holds no titles.” We are not a religion. Religions
are only concerned with systems, ideals and philosophies.
We are a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ, who alone
we strive to glorify.
Our product isn’t
what we’re about, but it is what makes us a legit
skateboard company. It allows us to be out there in the
industry so that we can spread the Word through ads to people
who may never even consider stepping foot into a church.
But our real hearts’ desire is for ministry, by going
out there, doing demos and showing this culture first hand
that you can love and live for Christ and still be a extraordinary
skateboarder. This year alone we have done 34 demos in the
US and England and have seen over 500 youths make decisions
to accept Christ! That’s what makes this all worth
doing. It’s not for us, it’s all for Him.

Untitled Skateboards started
with the vision of representing Christ to the world.
We are not religious, we are followers of Jesus Christ.
