We’re taking it across the Pennines for the second instalment of Product Toss to catch up with one of Manchester’s most productive sons and pint sized ATV, Eddie Belvedere.
After a lengthy stint in Cornwall, Eddie returned to the north towards the end of last summer to man a spot working behind the counter at The Black Sheep and joined the Death Skateboards team shortly thereafter.
Able to make noise on any terrain, be it big or small, rough or ripe – Eddie’s nimble feet currently push an 8.5” ‘OG Black Skull’ Death Skateboards deck.
Although simple – this hazard emblem is one of the best known graphics in UK skateboarding and has endured as trends have come and gone, circulating around skate shop walls for two decades.
This Death skateboard brand OG Black Skull deck comes in a standard popsicle form, (also available in pool shape if you’re that way inclined), provides a shallow concave, and an equally rounded nose and tail, albeit with a little more pop towards the back end of the board.
