The StrangeLove Natas Kaupas deck features an all-terrain capable shape and a hand screened artwork by Sean Cliver. Rocking a ’90s-inspired “football shape” with a standard rounded tail and a pointy nose, with double-drilled truck holes to fit both modern and vintage trucks.
Take this board to the streets on into the bowl, and it will shine. Bonus points for the spicy senorita drawn by Sean. This came out of PS Stix factory, so expect some Professor Schmitt magic from this plank. Here’s what Sean has to say about this run:
“All right, so the first black-and-white time around we didn’t anticipate the demand that we probably should have, even though we’d ordered more wood for one particular model than we ever had before. But look, this is scary stuff, you know? Ten-inches of wood don’t come cheap.
Regardless, people called us all sorts of nasty names and accused us of all sorts of nasty things, but fortunately we’re children of an earlier generation and well inured to such nasty things. So instead of crawling up into balls of blubbery meat in our respective corners of the USA, we bucked up and ordered more wood to print Natas’s esteemed name upon.
This time around, though, we painted half the boards yellow in an homage to his very first canary yellow Santa Monica Airlines pro model in 1985.” —Cliver
