LA culture blog Super Touch is reporting that former ice man Christian Hosoi has teamed up with Barracuda for a re-release of his hammerhead skateboard design.
OG skate legend CHRISTIAN HOSOI is best known for his signature “Christ Air” and the inimitable and groundbreaking shape of his best-known deck design, the original HAMMERHEAD. Now, teaming up with LA fashion boutique BARRACUDA, Hosoi has produced a limited run of 50 exact reproductions of the pioneering board shape in the to-die-for color combo of black-on-black. Releasing this Friday, May 9th at the Barracuda store (7769 Melrose across from Fairfax High School), and online at Barracudashop.com, each board will be signed and numbered by Christian Hosoi himself.
Congrats, Christian. Way to keep things rolling.
