As far as what I consider small, Green Door Skateboards (and Records) and Lurkville Skateboards, both out of San Diego. Zero and Black Label, small compared to other brands.

35th has some on sale:
http://www.35thave.com/shop/Skate/Decks/DOA.htm
faskates(the shop not Dill&Ave) has the new run of boards:
http://www.faskates.com/brands/dead-on-arrival
One thing to keep in mind is they come in two different shapes/concaves.  I would just make sure you check and get the mellow concave ones rather than the y2K(steep) concave ones if you want a flatter board.  Also l heard they self-immolate if you set them up with phillips hardware.
All you got is today, get out and skate.

Heated Wheel. Neil Blenders company. Great boards, cool prints, fun shapes. And heck, its Blender. The stains and prints on these boards are amazing.

This is pretty much what I use instagram for, finding smaller brands and gauging through time whether I like their stuff/want to support them. Hadn't heard of Heated Wheel or Olympia—will keep an eye out.

Currently on radar with varying degrees of enthusiasm:

Killing Floor
Carpet
Blood Wizard
The Friend Ship
Canal
Scumco
Chrystie
Isle
Centaur Hawai'i
DOA
Sea Rat
Dial Tone
Blast
Homework
Orbs
Doyenne
Super Toxic Urethane
Straye
Quasi
Alltimers
Quartersnacks

TBD which of these actually end up getting my dosh. Brand suggestions always welcome.

No.

what makes it a no for you?

im weighing "cheap & comfortable" vs. "would never skate them & hate the brand's personality"

Magenta Skateboards is an awesome company out of France. Cool artsy graphics and great videos. Really like the shape of their popsicles just wish they had some bigger sizes.

Fuck you.

Scumco & sons is the best.
Just hate that they use different woodshops. Even though they use a few different ones the decks are solid still and they hook up Kyle Nicholson.

Most of the Theories camp is gold too.

Carpet seems solid but never had any of their product.

As for bearings I just stick to Black Panther ceramics. Amazing bearings for a good price.

Bought a pair of Proper footwear. Good shoes but went back to Blazers 😶

Fuck you.

Fuck you.  Especially trying to act like Quartersnacks is some small, unknown entity.

i like northern co and state, mainly for putting chris athans on, been following him for some time and he has a great style and constantly gets better. scumco is sick too, great graphics and team. doa also seems cool but i don’t know much about the company

he's from my hometown in texas and knows some of my mutual friends, think i met him once or twice, great guy, even better skater
