The BLOCKHEAD SIGNED RE-ISSUE Jeremy Wray “When It Rains It Sucks” 31.5″ x 8.25″ Deck! For the first time we’re going to set the Blockhead time machine back to 1993 when it was all about little wheels and big pants and boards made the quick evolutionary jump from directional 10 inchers with “money bumps” to double kick popsicles almost overnight.
During that time there was a whole new wave of young street shralpers and one of the heavies was a southern California kid named Jeremy Wray. The legend of Jeremy’s super pop and bionic frontside 360’s quickly spread throughout the world with his parts in Recycled Rubbish and Debbie Does Blockhead.
So we are proud to announce the return of the Rain Girl AKA “When it Rains it Sucks” model inked by Jeremy himself with inspiration from the 100+ year old classic salt co. logo…even with some new color combos by Jeremy!
This classic deck was originally made for the one and only Jeremy Wray, one of skateboarding’s earliest modern street skaters. Jeremy was one of the guys at the forefront of one of skateboarding’s most pivotal evolutions.

Skate history will be kind to Jeremy Wray. His flip-trick snap, bolts landings, and spot annihilation legacy are on display in this 1995 Plan B part. Chris Pfanner introduces a classic.
Blockhead Skateboards, which took its roots in a Northern California garage in 1985 under the leadership of Dave Bergthold, had a remarkable journey that spanned approximately a decade. During this period, CALSTREETS played a crucial role in distributing Blockhead skates throughout Canada in the '80s. This collaboration led to the forging of enduring friendships, unforgettable moments, the launch of successful careers, the creation of iconic skate ramps, and a wealth of unforgettable skateboarding experiences.
The impact of Blockhead on the skateboarding world was profound and multifaceted. Be it the original and striking artwork by Ron Cameron, the intense and heated sessions on 'The Blockhead Ramp,' or the numerous talented individuals who emerged from this era to leave their mark on the skateboard industry as professionals and industry shapers, Blockhead's legacy remains deeply ingrained in the fabric of skateboarding history.
