Pat continues to skate and compete and having a board that fits his needs was the starting point for his shape. <span class=\"s2\">\u201c<\/span><span class=\"s1\">It\u2019s great because you are telling him what you need as a rider in terms of performance, and he&#8217;s got the science behind it\u201d, said Ngoho in regards to working with the \u2018Professor\u2019 Paul Schmitt on the board shape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-48959\" src=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex-decks.jpg\" alt=\"Pat Ngoho ZFlex Master Crafted Skateboard\" width=\"576\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex-decks.jpg 576w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex-decks-450x450.jpg 450w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex-decks-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex-decks-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex-decks-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Pat has been in the art scene for a while now as the Co-Founder of the \u2018Love and Guts\u2019 art exhibition, so he knew exactly what he wanted when he worked on the design of the graphic. Pat chose a whale as the focus image of the graphic explaining that, \u201cthey have this type of surfing quality to them, the way they move through the water, and just their whole vibe, they`re so passive and mellow and not out to harm anyone, and I think that relates to skating, or at least sometimes how I look at skating\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-48961\" src=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex6.jpg\" alt=\"Pat Ngoho ZFlex Master Crafted Skateboard at Venice Skatepark\" width=\"576\" height=\"444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex6.jpg 576w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/ngoho-zflex6-300x231.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Z-Flex is excited to offer this limited release Pat Ngoho Master Crafted board.

In 1976, as skateboarding transformed from a clean-cut upright sport and onto the streets where style was king, Z-Flex was founded. As skaters began to defy gravity, Z-Flex was there \u2013 designing and innovating \u2013 letting riders become whoever they were going to be with the goal of defining a sport. Decades later, Z-Flex is still connected to the spirit of those early years \u2013 \u00a0and still committed to skateboarding and its impact. Today we aim to connect with generations that are driven by the same desires for collective growth. It\u2019s not about nostalgia.\u00a0 It\u2019s about reinforcing the timeless and unique message of skateboarding.\u00a0 For more information, visit <span class=\"s3\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.zflex.com\/\">www.zflex.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pat Ngoho is an Emmy award-winning artist off his board and one of the most stylish skaters ever to ride when he is on one.
