I saw some of those MJ decks on Instagram but wasn't sure if it was just a guest board or what, because nobody has said a word about it otherwise.


The graphics ain't bad.

I gotta say, I dig those graphics.

Harmony, that's not... Josh Harmony, right? I mean, it would say "Josh Harmony" logically, just based on the other boards. Is it a team board? Is it Harmony Korine? Are the "Bone" and "Thug" boards just not pictured? Someone, please, help me.

the graphics are nice but i don't like boards with natural wood grain on the bottom if the graphic doesn't cover the whole ply, also i still don't really fuck with mj after he left lakai

pedantic and personal thing but unless it's gonna be a wall hanger, having the graphic solely on the middle of the board bugs me. im like opposite of the forbidden14, all i do is boardslides so that shit is gonna look like a cheap blank in a couple weeks

What do you mean 'again'? Barker doesn't need a label.

Fred Gall is the highest order, Barker is one level above that.

Tony Cox is involved with this company and that's all that matters

It's so crazy to see all these super hot, big name pros on one team. As we all know, the kids these days are knocking down doors asking for Barket Barrett, Shannon May, Tony Cox and MJ boards!

(Maybe a little harsh since I like Tony Cox and will always watch MJ footage that isn't interspliced with personality footage, but come on. Is there really any reason for this brand to exist?)

this! I'd even go as far as saying he cancels out MJ's kookiness

MJ, give us a lil 2 min part (more welcome) and I'll buy a board, I promise.
I like the graphics, but the natural stain sort of makes them look somewhat cheap in that picture.

I would've gone with plain black with white lettering

I'm sure they went out to look for the best-selling pros with the most instagram followers.  ::)


This feels more like the rad old dudes from your hometown starting a company. If they can pull it off, more power to them.

I had a few of these, in 1993.   Not someone I thought that would resurface.   Good luck to Thom

I get what you're saying but I also feel like that once you include someone like MJ on your team, you're setting very different expectations than a locals-only type of company.
