“We are excited to support USA Skateboarding as a partner and as fans,” said Rob Jessup, President and CEO of the company, founded by his grandfather 65 years ago. “USAS is an extremely well-run, privately funded organization that has done tremendous work getting Team USA skateboarders prepared and ready to compete despite the global pandemic.”

“We were thrilled to have Jessup jump in to support USA Skateboarding in the midst of last year’s deep uncertainty surrounding the Olympic Games,” said Josh Friedberg, Chief Executive Officer for USAS. “It’s great to have an American-made griptape company who shares our values and we’re really excited to have them as a long-term partner.”
