Manufacturer's description
Ol’ scallywag sailors together …drinking and telling tales of giant squid, whales that could swallow tall ships with one gulp, and how the sea comes alive on a full moon. I was imagining myself there in the eighteen hundreds, letting their stories seep into me, trying to retain the wild tales as they slurred from bearded mouths and blackened teeth. Truth behold, the stories told, were with great conviction. As if each and every sailor had personally witnessed an event of this magnitude and horror. I love the unknown in old stories. I love how they are told with passion and the story’s credibility relies on the delivery of the teller. I wanted my graphics to touch on the unknown: black cherries, ships with eyes, sunsets spun from spiders webs, hands parting the ocean, and the deadly skull of man. Hand drawn at the edge of the earth by yours truly, Tyler Lepore. These medium waist width freestyle decks shred the park, pipe, and just about anything else you point them at with a damp, solid feel and proven durability. Tyler Lepore made sure we used the highest quality Pre-Preg combo-weaved Fiberglass and Carbon Kevlar stringers for a little more torsional stiffness. We made sure his hand drawn graphics found a home on one of our most successful snowboards.
