Made by riders, for riders.

A Toronto longboard and creative studio: boards and gear, original art and streetwear, events, and a crew that keeps growing.

Our story

Official Nishan Boards Distributor · US & Canada

0% compliance. 100% freedom.

No Comply Project is a Toronto longboard and creative studio built for riders who never ask for permission to express and create, never afraid of what people think.

We aim to bring multimedia art, local artists, storytelling, and original content together — turning longboarding into a shared community, a cultural experience, a lifestyle enjoyed by all.

We are a melting pot for skill, culture, art and creation.

It's not just about landing a trick, it's how we live.

We are the official North American distributor of Nishan longboards for the US and Canada, shipping across Canada and the United States, and proud to present their innovative lineup alongside our original art, streetwear merch, and more.

Our Mission

Why we roll

  1. Grow Culture

    Anyone can ride. Everyone creates.

    Longboarding is one of the easiest ways onto a board, and one of the freest ways to express yourself. We grow the culture where worlds meet: dance and freestyle, art and design, music, anime and pop culture. We team up with local artists on new pieces, from board graphics and streetwear to films and stories, and bring them into the riding lifestyle.

  2. Make Accessible

    Real gear. Fair prices.

    Good boards, hardware and gear shouldn't be out of reach. We bring in setups that ride properly, at prices that make sense, with first boards and beginners in mind.

  3. Get Organized

    Roll together. Rise together.

    We organize and back events, sessions and meetups, and help riders progress with lessons and mentorship. Show up, keep showing up, and get better alongside people who want you to.

    Hi this is Steve! I’ve been skateboarding since high school and college, and more recently picked up longboard dancing and freestyle. The Toronto family, our communities and beyond have been so warm and supportive, and it’s been nothing but inspiring. With a decade of experience and a background in art and design, brand and content strategy, tech start-ups, and building communities and events, I wanted to bring the joy of longboarding and a vibrant creative culture to more people – and build something bigger, something that crosses worlds and knows no borders.

    Hi, I’m Alli! I’m a Toronto-based longboarder who joined the Nishan team in 2023. I started longboarding to arrive to classes on time and stumbled into the amazing community in Philadelphia. Since then, I have been skating with awesome and talented riders from Philly Longboard Crew, Flow Crew NYC, Longboard PDX, and now Yonge-Finch Skate. I have also been fortunate enough to achieve podium in competitions in New York, Nashville, Toronto, and Philly. Making new friends, and helping each other find flow is the best feeling because together, we can defy the odds and conquer the mountain!

    Hey, I’m Sheldz! I’ve been longboard dancing since 2021! I started with the goal to make my daily commute a little easier but ended up finding the longboard dance community by chance through YouTube and Instagram. Since then I’ve been to many competitions both here in Canada and in Europe, made tons of friends around the world and so much more! My biggest goal is to help grow the longboard dance community and the No Comply Project will be a huge step towards that!

    Hi, my name’s Adrian, and I’ve been riding since 2025. As someone who started longboarding in my 30s, I’m a firm believer that it’s never too late to find your passion. Inspired by Nishan’s mantra, I’m ready to go against the odds, challenge myself, and conquer the mountain. Happy to help all riders alike to find their next favorite setup!
