Bands & Skateboarding. The midwest skate scene has always and will always thrive.

Sam Hitz aka @larbvomit painted these S1 Helmet Display Skulls for contest winners.

Midwest skaters are built different and think different. Cold winters and the pure love for skateboarding creates some insanely interesting, unique and tenacious skate characters that continue to shape the history of skateboarding. Bill Danforth, Rob Dyrdek, Sam Hitz, Al Partanen and Darren Navarrette are the first that come to mind. But there more... many more. Who's your favorite Midwest ripper?
