In 1985 after narrowing down the doodles and rough draft attempts, I launched Blockhead in my parents Nor-Cal garage with 3 models, the Streetstyle, Rebel and Chaos. With the Streetstyle 1 and Rebel already reissued, the Chaos is the essential piece of the original trio collection. Not to mention, it sure is a looker ain’t it.
The Chaos was the first āfishā shaped board we did and my first attempts at screenprinting color blends in the ācosmic swelling vortexā background swirls. The graphic really featured the iconic Blockhead man, face logo, sunglass dude or whatever you want to call it but it sure screams 80ās!
These are made with the 6-ply Epoxy/Glass construction to keep them true to original…it’s an expensive process thus the price bump vs. standard 7-ply. Grab one while you can because the Chaos will possibly never be made again! For that reason I decided to really go off on the colors with 8 different combos available in a batch of only 60 boards so some colors are very very limited….tough choices! These bad boys are going fast so order up!
