Chris Cole Skateboarding
Cole gained notoriety after performing a number of difficult tricks, including a 360 flip, Switch Frontside Flip, and Backside 360 ollie down the staircase at Wallenberg High School in San Francisco, California.
Backside 360 Kickflip down Carlsbad Gap in Carlsbad, California & Martin Place Amphitheatre in Sydney, Australia But most notably, in his Transworld In Bloom and Fallen Ride the Sky Video Parts, he performs a Backside flip, Switch Frontside Flip, and Backside 360 ollie down the “Love Park” fountain in Philadelphia.
Cole was formerly a member of the G-Spot Skate and Snow team, before being sponsored by Enjoi and Zero Skateboards. Reflecting on the early stage of his career, Cole stated in a 2009 Thrasher interview:
I really like Enjoi. The brand is a breath of fresh air. I was on the East and detached from any team member so I was kind of a guy who rode the products, but not on the team. Especially ’cause they are a group of friends. I hung out with Marc Johnson a couple times. He was totally cool. I have always been a huge fan of his, so that was great.
Cole became a team rider for the Glassy brand in May 2013, following a bet between Cole and professional skateboarder Mike Mo Capaldi—Capaldi and Cole, who are teammates on the DC Shoe team, agreed that if Cole lost to Capaldi in any contest, he would join the Glassy team.
On May 18, 2013, the pair competed in the Battle at the Berrics 6 contest, with Capaldi winning; however, as of July 9, 2014, no announcement had been made regarding the new sponsorship arrangement, and Cole does not appear on the brand’s “Team” page.
On July 6, 2014, a segment on Tony Hawk’s RIDE Channel asked Cole—who was riding a blank, black-colored skateboard deck at the time—if he knew of any possibilities for his next skateboard deck sponsor, and he indicated that he was not aware of any options at the time.
Cole announced his departure from Zero on the social media platform Instagram on June 27, 2014, without providing a reason; however, a reply from the Zero Instagram account thanked Cole for his “loyalty & dedication.”
” Prior to the release of a limited edition series of 666 “Chris Cole” skateboard decks—Cole confirmed that the decks were not related to any brand, including a potential one of his own—that he officially parted ways with zero on July 1, 2014, which is displayed on the decks in Roman numerals.
Cole is perceived as an “ambassador” for skateboarding, representative of the generation that he is a member of, and he explained his perspective on the matter in an October 2014 interview:
When I started getting asked to talk about skateboarding in front of people, I found that my love for skateboarding wasn’t the same as everybody else’s. I have a skate rat mentality, much like the kids that are out there skating, and less like the older, more jaded people that get paid to do it. I love it so dearly, and I feel like the people that get paid to do it and represent it in the public eye, they should really love it too … I also just wanna live a full life and it not to be all about just tricks at spots … Who should represent this sport? Someone that dedicated their life to it and loves it.
In May 2015, Chris became a member of Plan B Skateboards. In September 2020, Cole rejoined Zero Skateboards.
Cole was a co-owner of Reign Skate Shop in Fairless Hills, PA, and a former shareholder of the Zero skateboard company. Cole parted ways with Zero on June 27, 2014, after three years as a shareholder and 13 years as a team rider. Cole explained:
I have had so many amazing years on ZERO. I can’t explain to anyone how awesome these years have been. With a heavy heart, it is time for ZERO and I to part ways. My decision has absolutely nothing to do with the partnership with Dwindle. I believe that partnership will do great things. Hold tight to see what the future holds … Where we’re going, we don’t need roads …
In an October 2014 interview, Cole clarified that he was a “silent shareholder” with Zero, meaning that “any of the shares that I [Cole] had been contingent upon the actual sale of Zero. And that never happened and it’s not gonna happen … There was absolutely no payoff and I’m not a shareholder any longer.”
Cole was the founder of skateboard clothing company Omit Apparel. Starting in 2011 and based out of Irvine, California, Omit Apparel ceased to be an operational company in late 2012 and Cole’s sponsorship deal with DC Apparel was announced in April 2013.
Cole is also an avid BMX rider and co-owns Cult, a BMX company that sponsors a team of riders. Team members include Chase Dehart, Dakota Roche, and Chase Hawk.
