o.k., this is long over due. Justin Cross, a photographer friend of ours (and an old school nashua skate head) basically did our first wheel graphic for us (for free). jolly and justin got together at least a half dozen times (many of them without any of the ceo's involvement) to take the "neighbors'" painting (also donated for free) and "swirl" the graphic which, was originally vertical in shape, and size it for the wheel template. NOW, j.b. is meticulous, to say the least, and we wanted the graphic to look like the original painting, not some rehashed digitized bullshit. justin showing infinite computer skills and patience made it happen beautifully.
sooooo, in appreciation we put together a new whip for him.....
creepshow Mike Rheault deck (artwork by jolly boring) eastern boarder ltd thunders and of course, bloodmobile eternal returns.
