I really liked the concept behind New Deal's minimalism graphics. Their ads espoused a philosophy of 'why put "expensive" graphics where they are just gonna get scraped off from riding'. If I remember correctly, New Deal was also one of the first companies to do away with wheel graphics with their release of 'the nude eels' wheel.

That is the kind of guy he is. I heard Shitbird asked Grime to pay something like $60 for one of the decks that he (Grime) did the artwork for, and didn’t even get paid for.

Guess I should read the article before asking questions. The griptape kinda reminds me of the old Banzai "Whaler" with the whale die-cut into the tape. Sweet. Duh, 1976.

Don't think they make decks anymore. Dave merch is good stuff, but ask anyone who's ridden for him why the shit talk. That shitbird deck is hot from its shape to its concave and no sag formica ply.
