Swing by Booth #2461 to grab New York Comic Con-exclusive boards from Bear Walker Industries (BWI), an internationally recognized skateboard design and manufacturing company specializing in custom, handcrafted collector’s pieces.
NYCC attendees will also have a chance to meet Bear Walker, who designs the brand’s boards himself with the help of illustrator Rupert Gruber. They can also purchase other products from the locally crafted skateboard brand.
BWI recently unveiled its exclusive and never-before-seen products at NYCC 2025. The unique skateboard brand, which has previously collaborated with entertainment brands like Marvel and Pokémon, went all out for this year’s show at the Javits Center, launching 10 new products. The new BWI boards include a collection inspired by Yu-Gi-Oh!, a collection inspired by DC Comics characters, and a board based on Avatar: The Last Airbender.
The Yu-Gi-Oh! collection features four boards inspired by legendary characters from the franchise: Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon, Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Slifer the Sky Dragon, and Exodia the Forbidden One. The Avatar: The Last Airbender board draws from waterbending culture, showcasing the Water Tribe emblem on the front and the Ocean Spirit on the reverse.
