New Deal Skateboards was founded in 1990 by Paul Schmitt, Andy Howell, and Steve Douglas. The brand emerged as a response to the commercialization of skateboarding, aiming to return creative control to skateboarders. The original team featured notable riders such as Andy Howell, Ron Knigge, Steve Douglas, John Montesi, and Danny Sargent.
Over time, the team expanded to include influential skaters like Ed Templeton and Mike Vallely. New Deal played a significant role in the early 1990s skateboarding scene, promoting street skating and DIY culture
