almost x amos decks by james jarvis.

click on the image above to enlarge.

quite a few people have complimented us on the recent collaboration we did with almost skateboards in california. our old friend bod boyle (the president at parent company, dwindle) approached us and asked if we wanted to do something with the team. we agreed that using the in-crowd could work really well. so jj set about re-drawing some of the characters to fit with the riders' choices. it was a bit of a 'back to our roots' moment for james and me.

the image above, is one of many that was created for a feature on holmes in asayan magazine from japan, which is now sadly defunct. holmes was a label that russell and sofia made before silas.

ad: anti hero/dlxsf

read and comprehend the ad above. john cardiel a.k.a cards, is one of the most determined person in the skateboarding culture who ever existed.

he is also one of the few skateboarders who lives by the "do or die!" attitude and there are only a handful of skateboarders who lives and live up to that ethics. and i really do not need ten fingers to count how many skateboarders out there internationally, who are similar to the way cards lives his daily life.
my out most respect to and for him for never giving up in his life, no matter how fucked up it can get sometimes!
