Santa Cruz x Bart Simpson
Recently, I blogged about a collabo release between Santa Cruz Skateboards and The Simpsons and was really feeling the Bart Simpson pro model board. Earlier today, I got an e-mail response from Hammer Skateboard that they got 'em in.
There was absolutely no hesitation to trip downtown for this.
This is one of the best collectibles for any fan of The Simpsons and/or skateboarder. It's really combining the best of both worlds in my opinion.
Added to the deck are custom painted sky blue Bullet Trucks rolling on hot pink 60mm OJ Hot Juice Wheels - they got this right down to the bone. Basically an exact reproduction to what Bart Simpson actually rides.
With moves like these, no wonder the "Proud Underachiever" has a pro model. Okay, I know he's a cartoon. But he did bring skateboarding into mainstream way before the X-Games.
Add some sick custom stickers and this item is one for the history books. If I can find a Spinal Tap sticker for this - it's on!
Check out this interview Rad Collector did with Jeff Kendall, the VP of NHS Inc., regarding the newly released skateboards.
