Patrick “P-Swiss” Switzer is back with another instalment of how he Gets Vicious with his boards. This time, Pat’s riding Rayne and he has a ton of Vicious Red.
Unfortunately we goofed and lost the footage for a bit… we want to thank Patrick’s sponsors EDGE Boardshop, Ronin Trucks and Rayne Longboards for letting us release this anyways. We’ll get started re-filming P-Swiss with his new Rayne Fortune Signature board and his Ronin Trucks soon!!

In 2003, Vicious Griptape founder and designer Graham Buksa, the wizard behind the curtain that is Rayne Longboards as well, began making boards in Alberta and calling them Rayne. A year later, Graham brought his particular magic to British Columbia and the North Shore and joined the burgeoning group of coastal shredders pioneering downhill skateboarding as we know it today.
10 years later, Rayne Longboards has been recognized as one of the leading innovators in longboarding and speedboarding. Graham’s design, collaboration with our professional race team and Rayne manufacturing have produced some of the most innovative, performance oriented, top quality and winning skateboards Worldwide.
Pulling back the curtain, something Rayne rarely does, please enjoy a glimpse inside the world of Rayne Longboards and Graham Buksa and prepare yourself for another decade of Better, Best and Different from Rayne Longboards Design and Manufacturing.
