I had the opportunity of going to Santa Cruz this weekend for the Vans JTDTI.  Tradition continued, by handing out custom Vans cruiser decks to all the competitors, photographers, and videographers.  This time, Russ forgot hardware, bearings, grip, trucks, wheels, and tools (basically, every single thing but the deck).  He told me he was heading to NHS to pick up some shit from his friend Jeff Kendall.  So I fucking went; Look.

Creature Decks, hot off the press.

Russ Pope designed this board in ’93; This is the board that the ‘New’ Creature
based their entire revival off of.  I saw the office that Russ single-handedly created
Creature in.. He butcher papered the walls and wouldn’t let anyone but Novak see
what he was up to..

Make a shirt.

Jim Phillips art detail for the Grosso graphic below..

OG Grosso shit.

If you’re over 35, I’m sure your first board is on this wall (I only shot 1/8th of it..)

More OG Grosso shit.. the original toybox graphic.

NHS in all its glory.

Gnarly’s Angels.

Spent the day shootin’ and hangin’ out with some pretty rad ladies on Sunday. Ozzie set up an all girls session over at Lance’s and finished it up with a BBQ shred at Ridiculous.

Dirty work.

Eyes on the prize.

Amy, Skatopia Skatepark local in the 70s, still ripping 30 years later.

Patricia, always fun to skate with.

Sonja lays down a double trucker.

Cheryl, racking up style points.

Ozzie snuck in a run.

Ji, high speed frontsider.

Tuling took about 3 runs to everybody’s one, she was charging hard.
