It is hard to think in a skate brand with that much history and importance in the skateboarding world.
The brand was founded by George Powell and Stacy Peralta in 1978 and grew greatly in the 80s along the popularization of the skateboarding.
But the beginnings go back many years before, when George Powell, who studied engineering, began manufacturing his first skate in the year 57, Years later, his son asked for a skate and took one of his old inventions from the garage... but the kid didn’t like it much, and told his dad that it didn’t roll well. At that moment, Powell began interested in skateboarding again. He saw the progress made in wheels with the introduction of urethane, and he started to manufacture prototypes of wheels and decks.
In the 76, he was fired from his job and moved to California to set up his skate company, and there he partnered with Peralta, who was one of the testers of his creations.
The team was founded in the year 1979, with the name ‘Bones Brigade’. Surely one of the most incredible skate teams of all time and that most changed the skate to what we know today.
Names that were part of the team today are authentic legends like Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero, Ray Barbee, Mike McGill, Colin McKay, Rodney Mullen, Guy Mariano, Danny Way, Bucky Lasek, Tommy Guerrero and a long etc.
Many of them are founders of current skate companies such as Almost, Plan B, World Industries, and more.
One of the keys to success, apart from their skills as skaters, was the edition of the brand’s videos, which meant a total revolution in terms of the level of the tricks, the edition of the video, the featured music... Some famous titles are Public Domain, Ban This, Future Primitive.
In addition to the decks, Powell diversified and created wheels, and the Bones brand for wheels and bearings, that became a company that is possibly the most successful one in the market for those products.
Over the years they were together, they created the most mythical decks and designs of the industry and, so that they were not forgotten, George and Stacy joined forces to reissue them, making their famous re-issues and giving the new generations the opportunity to enjoy such famous icons as the winged ripper, the skull & sword, the Nordic skull of wellinder, the skull & snake of MacGill, and the world-famous graphics of Tommy Guerrero of the knife in flames, the dragons of Caballero and, of course, those of Tony Hawk.
In the nineties, many new skate companies were created, and that fact affected the brand. In 91 Peralta left, and the company was renamed Powell Corporation.
They got through the difficult years and today the distributor ‘Skate One’ is one of the largest and most important in the world, including brands as Powell, Powell Peralta, Bones, Mini Logo and more.
