This quick sketch from Blockhead artist Ron Cameron shows the best way to shoot a board at home. Ron is working on a book and sent me this so I could photograph a super nice and rare Blockhead deck I found in an old toy store in Belgium last year. The method works just fine and is tested and approved by Sean Cliver himself.
See, it works!

“…in an old toy store in Belgium…” WHAT!?!
Haha, too bad I didn’t score this one. Great looking board.

Cool diagram, he forgot “photoshop out stray pubic hairs.”

Haha! Thanks for the tip, but it’s just grass …

I have not seen here any comment on The Board Room – by the other Sean – Apart from the extravagant price (140-160$) is it any good ?

I had this deck as a 10 year old skater living in Dover, Delaware. I think I bought it originally from the local skate shop (Tony’s Bicycle Shop). Got into lots of debauchery while kicking around on this deck… thanks for the memories. I had neon green grip tape along the top of mine.

Just found mine after about 20 years. Still skates great!

Please sell this to me. This was my first board as a kid in the 90’s.
