Frog Skateboards, founded in 2015, is less of a brand than it is a group of likeminded people who’ve come together through skateboarding. New York City transplants Chris Milic and Jesse Alba place Frog’s focus on fun and inclusivity, with graphics that serve as exercises in self-expression above all else—principles that comes through loud and clear in this latest installment of Vans Skateboarding Presents. In this episode, Vans gets an inside look at Frog’s tightknit crew of friends and shines a light on Nick Michel, a rising star in the Vans Family.
