This 22” Ethiopia Skate Penny was designed by Californian artist BB Bastidas. Inspired to make a difference in the global skate community, BB came up with the intricate designs based off of African textiles that prominently feature the Ethiopian national colors. The 27" Nickel counterpart to the Ethiopia Penny 22”, features similar, yet unique graphics of its own tying together two amazing boards for one valuable project, Penny for a Purpose.
The Ethiopia Skate by BB 22” boldly features transparent red wheels that match the red on the deck. These 59mm 83A wheels are great for cruising! Just soft enough that you feel in complete control on the nimble 22” board, yet fast enough for you to pick up some serious speed and have a blast doing it. The Ethiopia 22” also comes standard with Abec 7 bearings to provide your Penny with the durability needed to skate every day.
White and green powder coated Penny trucks are made from high-quality aluminum construction which keeps your Penny light, strong, and ready to shred. The 83A yellow cushions are perfect for carving and by tightening or loosening the kingpin you can adjust it to fit your riding style.
