Elouis Morales Rodriguez is a multimedia artist and CAD designer based in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Born and raised in Orocovis, Elouis holds a degree in mechanical engineering but has always leaned toward the creative side, drawing, painting, and crafting in 3D CAD. He discovered fingerboarding about a year ago after years of being a fan of skateboarding. The island’s growing fingerboard scene quickly became a creative outlet that allowed him to expand his art and confidence.
His introduction to fingerboarding came in October 2023 when a friend brought a signature setup to his home. Curious, Elouis picked up a board to support, but it wasn’t until summer 2024 that he started practicing daily and attending weekly meetups at Titere Crew Park. There, he met the owner of SXL Ramps, whose support helped accelerate his progress. By December 2024, he was riding his first full pro setup: a 34mm VennuckSkateCrafts deck, Dynamic trucks, and Piro Wheels, which is still his go-to today. Since then, he’s been a regular at events across the island, both riding and sharing his art, and is now a flow rider for SXL Ramps.
Elouis has been drawing since childhood, and a middle school art course gave him a foundation that he’s built on ever since. But it wasn’t until after college, and especially after getting involved with fingerboarding, that he fully committed to pursuing art. The creativity and DIY spirit of the community inspired him to start customizing obstacles and designing deck graphics. A custom deck design he shared with VennuckSkateCrafts led to a collab drop and opened up more opportunities with artists and builders across Puerto Rico.
One of his most memorable moments was winning a USAFBL concrete block at Sesh3 and turning it into a hand-painted piece. That project helped him learn how to adapt artwork to physical forms. Today, he continues to work with builders like Vennuck, SXL, and Islander Ramps on upcoming custom drops.
