CRESKATE redefines fingerboarding by turning the board-building process into an authentic DIY experience. Combining skateboarding, craftsmanship, and technology, the brand brings the spirit of "create & skate" to life. CRESKATE offers high-quality kits that allow children, teenagers, and adults to press and shape their own fingerboards from real wood, using professional-grade materials and tools.

Custom-made fingerboards that perform just like professional setups, allowing users to master tricks such as flips, grinds, and slides.
Fingerboarding has evolved into a global movement, with a dedicated community, international competitions, and even world championships. CRESKATE is proud to be part of this culture, empowering enthusiasts to create, ride, and innovate.
