Tommy Sandoval Tharasher cover story....

So I was driving to the HQ in downtown SD (proper!) and these skate type dude were all gathered up across the street at Farmers Market gap. I pulled up and said, "Hey you kids, you can't be doing that there. No skateboarding here." Mike "The Burn" Burnett from Thrasher was the ring leader on hand. He looked over at me and said, "Nothing of your interest here old man. Move along." Ha. That Burn is too funny. I went and sat on the HQ front steps and had my lunch while I watched Tommy do his attempts on this FS-flip.

Around the same time I was talking to Barker and he told me a story that Tommy used to come and talk to former F TM, Josh Beagle, to try and get on the team. Josh was all let's see your footy Tommy and Tommy said something to the effect of that he doesn't need the footy and he took Beags over to this gap and shredded it live for him. I guess Beags was not impressed.

Stoked to see this cover of Tommy come out. That spot is directly across the street from the F HQ. And I watched them shoot it. And now here it is. Kick ass Tommy. Sorry Beagle dissed you.

Blazing Foundation!

Well as if you didn't know, Frank Frazetta is one of my favorite artists, ever! We got the inspiration for the Cataclysmic Abyss (www.CataclysmicAbyss.com) cover art from old Frankie! Mike Sutfin did a masterful rendition on his own right. (He did our cover art. I have the orginal and it's tiny teeny weenie!)

I was glancing through some Frazetta archive book and came across this cover he did for Blazing comics back in April 1966. I liked the lettering style so I asked, F illustrator extrodinaire, John McGuire, tod do a Foundation version for us. Ours is not a straight rip off. It's inspired and I am hyped on the end results.

We added Yuck Fou in there popping through the O giving a thumbs up. The top graphic is a full reverse and you see YF ass hanging out the back of the O.

It's called Blazing of course and comes in three sized decks and on a tee. Hot pink was the call here. Don't be a pussy!
