Please don't hang the DJ.
Satva had been an am on Toy Machine up until 1998 when he switched to Maple for the chance to turn pro. He would later make an in-house shift to Kien Lieu's Dynasty before starting Judah through Imperial Distribution. Imperial was the blanket title for the company that distributed Maple, Dynasty, and 151. Judah was around for a couple of years and combined Satva's interest in DJing with skateboarding. The team included German Nieves, Andy Bautista, Joel Meinholz, Dustin Charlton, Adam Crew, and Mike Barker.
Check out the sizes on those decks. 7.5" x 32" is flat out weird and 7.38" is about the width of a freestyle board.
Pete Thompson took the photo and Dave Kinsey designed the graphics.

Didn't he end up doing Judah through Select, aka Vision?
Yes, for 2003. I'm not sure if Imperial went under at that point or if they were still kicking.
