Before we set up Gay Skateboards as an LLC we had a quick check online to see if anyone had already used the name. Miraculously, no one else has claimed the adjective ‘Gay’ for a skateboard brand name… However, someone has made gay skateboards. Luckily for us it’s a different type of ‘gay’. The ‘gay’ examples below are actually more to do with the homosexual definition of ‘gay’, whereas our ‘gay’ is concerned with the original meaning of the word- To be lighthearted and carefree : Grandma had a gay disposition and a very pretty face, or: We had a gay old time at Circ Du Soleil Las Vegas. That kind of gay. Not the up-the-bottom variety. That’s why our first ever board features the Big O. She’s the living embodiment of gay. How could you not be gay with all that fucking money? Hopefully we’ll get the decks made and onto the street before she serves us with a cease and desist.
While we’re here looking at the two boards below, can anyone tell us what a ‘Glomp’ is? I think someone’s been inventing words and trying to smuggle them into the idiomatic vocabulary peculiar to skateboarders.
Hmmm… pass me my beaker. I must run more tests!
Whatever a ‘glomp’ is, one things for sure, you will receive a stern yaoi/yuri for the crime of glomping, and possibly a beat down, depending on whether you’ve been warned for glomping before. Recidivist glompers beware. You will be dealt with severely.

The Big O is on the way.
