Mal wieder zu lange "Blog-Pause". Ich komm kaum nach...sorry Leute.Fühlt sich an als hätte ich zwei "Fulltime-Jobs"...von anderen Verpflichtungen mal abgesehen. Aber...ich steh drauf!
Bill "NOMAD" Danforth X Thomas William - A Buddy Post!
Wer es bis jetzt noch nicht kapiert hat...ich bin Bill "Nomad" Danforth Fan!
Warum? Muss was mit Punk zu tun haben. Ich mag seinen Style, die Kompromisslosigkeit und sein "Fuck You" all! Die Augen sagen Alles!
Wir sind uns da ähnlich!
Von den "Buddies" hab ich neben den vor einiger Zeit gekauften Decks auch ein paar "Goddies" bekommen. Die seht ihr nun hier.
Alle rar und signiert von Bill!
Das Bier von Bill und Thomas in "Emmy´s Time Out Tavern" - Deland, ging auf mich.
My "alltime" favourite Pic:
"First time released in red dip, the color of the very first batch I ever made in 1985, screen printed by hand in the Bergthold family garage in Roseville CA.When the first batch of 60 boards arrived from the Uncle Wiggley factory in San Diego, I hadn’t built drying racks yet so they were laid out in the driveway to dry.Only on that first batch the print was 2 colors but after that I decided they would look much better with a 3rd color added in the lettering and then most subsequent batches featured a gray blended sidewalk. For this reissue I decided I’d do the original red but add the a 3rd color like they really should have had on the first version….the “should have been version”.Ahead of it’s time in 1985 with a 4” nose, the longest on the market then….I’m biased of course but it was the best street specific board of the early/mid 80’s.Here’s perhaps the last chance for you to grab one with the original “old school” hole pattern, signed and numbered. Also featuring a special 1985/ 2025 top graphic with the first unreleased version of the “Blockhead man”.Details:Number produced: 40 (for the 40th anniversary!)Art: Dave BergtholdDeck Color: Red dipBottom: Screen printed graphics, 2 print optionsTop: laser burn logo, signed and hand numberedDimensions: 9.125 x 30.125”, 15.5” wheelbase, 6.625 tail, 4” noseConstruction: 7-ply mapleConcave: Mellow tail, very slight concave as original, flat noseHole Pattern: Old SchoolManufactured by BBS in Baja CA MXOriginal release date 1985, Reissue date 2025Price $99Limited to one signed and numbered Streetstyle per customer!"
