Founded in 2012 by skateboarder and filmmaker Lisa Whitaker, Meow Skateboards grew from a simple ambition: give talented women skateboarders the backing and visibility they were too often denied. Whitaker already had deep roots in the scene. In 2003 she created Girls Skate Network to document women’s skateboarding, share footage and connect riders at a time when their presence received little attention from the industry.
Meow turned that commitment into an independent skate brand, with skateboard decks and an actual team behind the graphics. Rather than treating women’s skateboarding as an occasional marketing theme, the company built it into the foundation of its identity. Its approach is welcoming, creative and firmly connected to street skating.
The team includes influential skaters such as Vanessa Torres, Samarria Brevard, Kristin Ebeling, Annie Guglia and Nanaka Fujisawa. Meow’s catalogue features signature pro decks alongside its distinctive cat-inspired logos and playful artwork, with skateboard completes and apparel also part of the wider range.
Whether you’re drawn to the story behind the brand or the artwork on its boards, Meow Skateboards stands for an independent vision of skating: more opportunities, more voices and more people represented in the scene. Explore the Meow selection at BUD Skateshop.
