Local art, music, waffles, a movie.
A dozen local artists have been given skateboards
to creatively alter as they see fit. Come check out the skateboard art and see the premier
of our latest full length video, Let's Come Back.
Doin’ The Downhill presented by Blake Smith and Justin Bryant is the newest film from the Basic Crew. After being rained out for several weeks, we finally found a break in the weather to take some time out and ride our favorite hill… Claremont Canyon. It wasnt long into our session when it started to rain on us yet again. Standing at the top of Claremont in the rain with our skateboards and a camera in hand left us with only one choice. One of the more sketchy runs of my life, we made it down to the bottom without any falls until Justin shows off with a one footed heelside only to slip out and nearly run head first into an oncomming car. Enjoy the Ride and dont forget to be on the lookout for Comet’s newest film “Lets Come Back”.
Just got off the line with JP Kaloi in Hawaii and he suggested that we alter the original Voodoo shape a bit. Above is the drawing and here is what we plan to do.
Add 1 ” of wheel base for a total of 32.25”
Extend the width to 10.25”
Extend the length to 39”
With our factory we can look at skateboard design similar to how surfboards are made. Each rider is welcome to come up with dimensions specific to their style and size and we can customize a board. The more this happens the more the Comet line can metamorphose into exactly what the skateboard community is looking to collectively skate…We are inviting more input for the VOODOO and others in the line. If you have something completely new we want to hear about that too. Look forward to hearing your thoughts. We will be sending 2 flex patterns of the above dimensions to JP next week.
