This just landed in our inbox:
I am writing with news that I am no involved with Blueprint Skateboards.
My history with Blueprint spans 16 years, from 1996 when Dan Magee had a vision for a brand that would embody an homage to skateboarding and a vision for the future of skateboarding in the U.K. I have the fondest memories of the last 16 years and all the people who made Blueprint what it was.
But it’s time for me to move on, always with the same mission of giving back to what’s given me so much.
Thank you for your support over the years. I am excited for what is to come.
Cheers,
Shier
