I’VE BEEN SHAPING SKATEYS FOR MYSELF FOR A WHILE BUT THIS IS THE FIRST WHIPPING ONE UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE.
IN 2018 I ASKED JACOB COLLINGS IF HE WOULD PHOTOGRAPH MY ‘REBIRTHED’ RANGE. HE WAS KEEN (WHICH I WAS STOKED ON THIS CAUSE HE’S A DUDE) & WHEN WE GOT TO TALKING COIN, I WAS KEEN TO PAY HIS FULL RATE (CAUSE THAT’S THE GO). HE INSTEAD SUGGESTED I SHAPE AND ART A BOARD FOR HIM, THE DEAL WAS DONE.
