Over the years, New York-based Chapman Skateboards has manufactured decks for Supreme, Traffic, Zoo York, Hopps, Cliché, Illuminati, and other smaller independent brands. Established in 1991, the brand helped shaped the culture of skateboarding in its native city.

In celebration of the craftsmanship involved in the making of the skateboard decks, Chapman Skateboards has released One Skateboard At A Time, an interesting behind-the-scenes visual of the complete manufacturing process, from veneer to street. Starting in the factory and ending under the feet of a skater, this video shows the lifespan of Chapman's iconic products.
