Ahoy there, dean. It\u2019s no secret that Stumptown Coffee<\/a> loves to gleam the cube. Skateboard culture has long<\/a> been<\/a> part<\/a> of the brand\u2019s aesthetic, and the company even took a few of their pro skater friends to Antigua, Guatemala to shred some Central American gnar for the Sprudgie-nominated short film\u00a0Flower of Flowers<\/em><\/a>. And now they’re taking the next logical step with their love of skateboarding. (No, I don’t mean setting up a GS\/3 at the lip of an empty pool, though that would totally rip and sip.)<\/p>\n Stumptown has announced the creation of a new\u00a0Skate Team,<\/a> featuring notable skate legends Chet Childress, Silas Baxter Neal, Nick Boserio, and Elissa Steamer, a fan favorite and legendary playable character in the original Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. As a recently certified B Corporation, the Skate Team is \u201cone of the many ways Stumptown invests in their employee culture,” per a press release from the company.<\/p>\n For the inaugural Lords of Stumptown,\u00a0next month the brand will release Breaking The Crust<\/em>, a 20-minute short film to showcase the company\u2019s newest\u2014and technically speaking the raddest\u2014venture, a preview of which can be seen below.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The coffee company is also releasing a limited edition cold brew and whole bean coffee, both made of the Colombia El Jordan sourced through fellow B Corp Caravela Coffee. Now available in-store and online<\/a>, the bag design for the special release coffee was designed by Childress, and $1 of every bag and can sold goes to one of three skateboarding non-profits chosen by Stumptown employees, two of which are female-led. Non-profits slated to receive donation from the Skate Team are Skate Like A Girl<\/a>, Exposure Skate<\/a>, and the Harold Hunter Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n For more information on the Skate Team (or maybe even to buy the limited edition Skate Team box set<\/a>), visit Stumptown’s official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Zac Cadwalader<\/a>\u00a0is the managing editor at Sprudge Media Network and a staff writer based in Dallas.\u00a0Read more Zac Cadwalader\u00a0on Sprudge<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n Disclosure: Stumptown Coffee is an advertising partner with the Sprudge Media Network.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n The post Stumptown Coffee Has A Professional Skateboarding Team<\/a> appeared first on Sprudge<\/a>.<\/p>\n Source: Coffee News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ahoy there, dean.
