Find skate spots.
Support skater-owned biz.
Celebrate all that is inspiring.
In history,
there have never been more small brands to support and algorithms preventing that from happening.
Paracosm is NOT here to take your attention hostage.
It’s a mere treasure map of skate spots, skater-owned businesses, and creative points of interest that connect you to whatever city your board is in…and then you close the app and go about your day.
Forged in the streets
-
Look left. Look right. The world is being painted grey.
Paracosm started back in 2023 but lately it’s been a lot easier to rationalize the time investment now that the odds are stacked so steeply against us.
-
A snooty fine artist in SoHo once described skateboarding as “graffiti performance art.” Meaning it requires and thrives in an uninhibited urban environment and often draws a radical response from square people.
“Spots” are everywhere and there are other skate spot apps out there.
But every single last one of them feels like how a focus group would design an app for skateboarders.
Not how we would actually do it.
Paracosm as an inter-dimensional brand, is merely an attempt to link arms with creative, interesting people and say, “The world still deserves some hope and beauty in it.”
Browse the aisles
Shattered mirrors and crying babies—this mug is NOT for the faint of heart. Make your colleagues and comrades hurl with this disgusting design, perfect for any occasion.

Inspired by a painting found in the Tomb of Nakht, this hoodie pays tribute to the history of domesticated cats. A practice that started in the Fertile Crescent around 12,000 years ago.
There is no formal decision on a mascot for Paracosm yet, but cat is definitely up there.
