Manchmal bin selbst ich sentimental!

Da ist wohl "Dave Bergthold" sechzig geworden, müsste ein "64ziger" sein!

Ich bin auch und sowieso ein "old fart" (alter Sack), auch "64ziger"!

Und ja, die einfachen Grafiken sind auch cool!

Manchmal ist ein einfaches Design ehrlicher als Totenköpfe...manchmal!!!

"Well dang, I just passed the 60 year mark and so it seems like the appropriate time to reissue the 1995 classic Olde Fart board. In 1995 at 30-ish years old we were feeling like old farts with technical skateboarding progressing at breakneck speed and what we were doing was so uncool.

Laban and I had recently launched Invisible so I took the opportunity to turn Blockhead into perhaps the first “Old School” company making wider boards and bigger wheels at a time when you couldn’t find a board over 7.5” or wheels over 48mm.

We were dinosaurs but we embraced it to keep things fun at a time when skateboarding was trying to push us out….but here we are and we’re still pushing forward!"
