    Endurance Skateboards

    "Endurance comes from the heart"

    It means, whatever you are doing, you give it everything you've got to give. Every day we face challenges, and every day we choose to give our all. At times we may fall, but that does not mean we fail. We just get back up and try again.

    "With every breath in us, we give our all. No holding back. No giving up. This is our way of life. Start Living."

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Q.Is Endurance a Christian skateboard company?

    A. Endurance, as a board company can only reflect who we are, and how we live our lives. We are Christians, and we strive to live our lives each day according to our convictions. We hope our products reflect that.

    Prayer Updates...

    Christian Skaters is a small grassroots ministry with BIG visions to impact the globe with the love of Christ! Started in 2005, we have one full-time missionary and are run by less than a handful.
    We have seen the Lord work in humbling ways as He has allowed us to be a part of this vision!
    As we continue to cast this vision, the Lord continues to open doors. We ask for your prayers as we step out in faith! Please consider partnering with us in prayer for the following opportunities!!!

  • Christian Skaters has been asked to minister to family of our troops in both Georgia & Japan. Pray that the Lord provides funds needed to fly teams to Okinawa and that He may lead many to Him through this amazing mission.
  • Pray for the Orange County Livin' It event to be held October 13th. May the Lord keep His hand on the planning of this event and bring many to hear His word!
  • Pray for opportunities to outreach in Australia & Egypt
  • Pray for the Frallicciardi family to step out in faith and begin to serve as full-time missionaries. Pray that the Lord may provide a clear path.

  • Lance Mountain's take on Religion in Skateboarding....
    An Interview with Thrasher Magazine

    TRASHER: What role do you think religion has in skateboarding? Do some companies take it too far? Not far enough?

    LANCE MOUNTAIN: Everyone has a belief system, the way they view the world, how or why we're here, even in their uncertainties. Whether they think so or not, they are preaching a religion through their lifestyle and the way they live. You see it in the way we all live and speak: Live Fast Die Young, Skate and Destroy, Grab All You Can, You Only Live Once, Power of Positive Thinking, Can't We All Get Along, Lance and what he's writing is stupid; Imagine a World without any Religion. That's a religion in itself. From the time we are born, we all are searching to fulfill ourselves with either power, position, possession, purpose, pleasure, or intellect. One, or a combination of some or all, rule us; that is our god. Whatever we are into, that's what we preach and that's what our religion is. Even if it is not in our nature to be outspoken, or even if we believe we are not religious at all, others can read it all over us. Religion plays a role in every-day life, even to those who are disgusted by it. So as skateboarders and skateboard companies, we all are preaching some religion. That being said, I'm not going to defend us as people that believe in Jesus Christ. We have, at some time, misrepresented God; just as we believe some have misrepresented our skateboarding to others, like on TV. We must look to God and what He has done, not man. He created us for His glory and with a free will, so we can chose to respond back to Him or not. He is a Holy God and we must be Holy ourselves, but man is not capable of Holiness. We have all sinned and therefore are in a state of death and separation from God, needing a mediator to be reconciled back with Him. So God humbled Himself, empty Himself, and became flesh to pay the debt required to purchase us back, to have life and life as He designed it. It's a free gift to those who believe; if we truly believe we see ourselves from God's point of view and see how retched we really are, our life, purpose, and views start changing. God's love for us has been changing our hearts, and He wants to take away the things in our lives that hurt, kill, and separate others and us from Him. I believe that anyone in skateboarding speaking out for what Jesus Christ has done for them has more to lose financially than gain.
