History of Meow Skateboards and Mariah Duran
Meow Skateboards was founded with a clear goal in mind: to support and promote female skateboarding in a male-dominated sport. The brand was launched in 2012 by skater and artist Lisa Whitaker. Meow Skateboards has since built a reputation as a champion of inclusivity in the skateboarding world, with a team of talented female skaters.
Born in 1996 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Mariah Duran is one of the stars of the Meow Skateboards team. She started skateboarding at a young age and quickly rose to the top of the skateboarding world thanks to her technical skills and fluid style. In 2016, she made her X Games debut and has since won multiple medals. Duran is also a pioneer in breaking gender barriers in the sport, and her partnership with Meow Skateboards is a testament to her dedication to inspiring the next generation of female skaters.

The board's design is inspired by Mariah's love of cats, which is evident in the playful cat head illustrations, or "Whiskers," that adorn the deck. This unique and stylish design is not only an eye-catcher, but also a tribute to Mariah's personality and the things she loves outside of skateboarding.
