The Heroin Deck Swampy Bug (10.75”) is a bold collision of gritty skate style, underground art, and a shape built for function and character. Set against a hot magenta wood-stained background, the graphic features a grotesquely lovable cockroach-like creature with bulging eyes, six arms gripping cans of toxic-looking liquid, and oversized sneakers as it stomps through a cracked sidewalk wasteland. Above the character, the word HEROIN is scrawled in a horror-inspired font, while SWAMPY is slapped across the tail in oozing slime-green lettering, adding to the chaotic cartoon filth aesthetic that Heroin Skateboards has made iconic.
This deck features a 10.75” x 32” shape with a 14.25” wheelbase, plus razor edge construction and wheel wells for extra clearance and control. The extra-wide, old-school shape with squared-off tail and a tapered, snub-nose front makes it a killer choice for pool, curb, or creative street missions. It's a reminder that not all decks need to follow the same mold—this one is all about individuality and edge.
Founded by British skater and artist Mark “Fos” Foster, Heroin Skateboards has been pushing crusty, raw creativity into skateboarding since 1998. What started in the U.K. as a DIY project is now a global cult favorite, known for hand-drawn graphics, wild shapes, and a commitment to skateboarding’s misfit soul. Fos, the mind behind all the brand’s artwork, blends grotesque and absurd imagery with a genuine love for the culture. He’s not just a respected figure in skating—Fos is a great friend of the shop, and both he and his wife are frequent visitors to our Monrovia location, keeping it personal and real every time they come through.
As for Swampy, the rider behind this graphic, he’s been known for his hard-hitting, unapologetically raw approach to skating. Whether it’s crusty banks, tight transitions, or wallrides where most wouldn’t even bother, Swampy brings an energy that’s pure Heroin spirit—dirty, fast, and all heart. This graphic doesn’t just represent a deck—it’s a reflection of Swampy’s grimy street presence and Heroin’s devotion to the unpolished side of skateboarding.
This deck is a functional art piece, a loud statement, and a tribute to skateboarding’s weirder, more wonderful edge.
