Now, with his trucks lined up under Slappy, he has a new place to call home and continue doing what he loves.
But there is more to this than just skating. Shecks has been open about his faith in Jesus Christ, and his dedication shows in the welcome ad, with his Jesus Knuckle tattoo proudly displayed alongside the Slappy trucks.
It is a sign of how he is combining his love for skating with his spiritual path, showing that faith can have a place even in the skate world.
Skate culture has always been known for its rebellious side, but more and more skaters are stepping away from imagery and influences tied to Baphomet, the devil's 666, and other satanic symbols in the culture.

Athletes like Shecks are choosing to focus on faith and positivity, proving that you can stay true to yourself while embracing values that matter to you.
For the Slappy Trucks team, adding Shecks is a win, and for fans, it is exciting to see someone of his skill and character riding for a company that aligns with his outlook.
Congratulations to Shecks for joining Slappy Trucks and for following a path that reflects who he is. Amen.
