About

Frontside Woodworks

Welcome to Frontside Woodworks, a place where retired decks find new life and purpose through the unique vision of our artist and woodworker, Cory Devenport. Based in the vibrant city of San Diego, our workshop breathes new life into recycled skateboard decks, transforming them into stunning pieces of functional art.

Our Story

Cory began his journey in woodworking as a form of creative expression after a fulfilling career in law enforcement. With a deep appreciation for precision, detail, and a respect for sustainability, he found his true passion in the art of transforming discarded skateboard decks into beautiful, handcrafted items.

Skateboarding has always been a significant part of San Diego's culture, and by using recycled decks, Cory not only preserves a piece of this local heritage but also contributes to environmental conservation. Each piece he creates tells a story of countless rides and tricks, repurposed into something new and extraordinary.

Our Mission

At Frontside Woodworks, our mission is to craft unique, high-quality wooden artworks that bring the spirit of skateboarding into homes and spaces in an eco-friendly way. We believe that art should be personal, have a story to tell, and be a centerpiece that sparks conversations. Our work celebrates the journey of each skateboard deck from the streets to your home, office, or gallery.

    Cory lives in San Diego with his wife, where they enjoy the coastal lifestyle and the city’s vibrant arts scene.
