Policelli with the raw hits! Our Texas & New Mexico run pre-lockdown!
“This was my second Crailtap trip back in March of 2020, the week before lockdown. We took the van from Los Angeles to New Mexico and then Texas, where we met up with Malto, Kenny, & Rickk. Hyped to have been a part of the ride, especially since the borders shut down a couple days after this.” – Daniel Policelli
Aimee Cozza illustrated this Featured Deck gaining inspiration from some of her favorite manga characters and had it pressed on the NEW BoardPusher.com holographic base. “I’ve been lovingly calling it ‘Vampire Sailor Scouts’. Essentially just 80s aesthetic/vaporwave vampire Sailor Moon.” Follow Aimee on Instagram @aimeecozza to see more of her artwork.

| We added a few wider truck options from the most respected names in skateboarding. Now when you’re making your BoardPusher.com custom skateboard complete, you can upgrade to Independent 169mms, Venture 6.1 Highs, and Thunder 161s. These trucks will give you more stability and control when you add them to one of our larger decks like the 8-3/4″ and 9″ popsicle boards or our Old School, Punk Nose, or Square Nose shapes. |

“Most of the time when people get scared they tend to run and hide. Luckily a bunch of close friends and I had a place to run to and play skateboarding without being scared. No worries of having to post something, being around a bunch of hawks and trees, and mixing a bunch of rocks and water together. The sense of being a kid feels really alive and well. We played some music, filmed some tricks, and sat behind a computer to put it all together. That place was off the grid for a while but it turned out to be a great spot to play hide and seek at. Now it’s on the grid at Lakai.com. Raise the volume and lower the expectations.” – Vincent Alvarez
