But really, what did ever happen to Alfaro? Behind Jason Adams, he had my favorite part in Label Kills.
  I guess he's been on and off a bad road with drugs, Lucero mentioned in in an older interview somewhere. Got to see him live a a Label Demo back in '03, straight ripper.

thinking about getting back on black label decks...the combo of Adams and Lucero is just to strong a influence on my wallet!

does anyone know who makes their decks? is it Schmitt?

sweet...

my first video was Wheels of Fire (yes im old)...so always been loyal to Santa Cruz. Only got back into skating after about 10 years off and although i'm still into NHS...im starting to get over the quality of their decks. I know BBS has a good rep, so Black Label might be a good next deck

I think Lucero over the years has had at least 5 riders that couldnt skate as well as hes capable himself.

My first non kmart/world industries board was a black label. Seems like their heyday was a bit before my time but they have always seemed sick to me.

My dead homeboy had those Black Label flames tattooed on both arms.

I used to have a bunch of Black Label hoodies, don't ever see them anymore.

I’ve had this elephant label beanie for 15 years and still wear it from time to time. I was in a record shop not long ago a dude was wearing the same one in a different color. Tripped me out a bit.

Black Out was always on daily growing up. Has two friends who absolutely wrecked themselves because one was massively inspired by Jub and the other Ragdoll.

Anybody know a good shop to get some Black Label boards from? None of the shops round me carry em anymore and I can’t find any on Parade, rather support a brick & mortar shop if I can.

Been watching lot of Jason Adams parts lately. The Best.

I think of Lucero Label Kills part every time I goof around at crowded skate park.

Order directly from them or ask if your local shop will carry them. Props to you for looking to support your local shop.

The quality local shops seem to have them like Jokers, with orders hand delivered by John Lucero himself, and others around LA but I don't see too many in other places, even though I would think there would be some around.  The dealers page on the website only has a few places listed though.

We get some in Australia, but nothing like the bigger brands who seem to have much wider distribution overall.

Maybe if anyone is trying to track some down, ask John or email him for local places that might order them, if you cannot order from the website.

He had a guest board on the label not too long ago. I had 3 of them and it literally was one of my alltime favourite boards. If he ever joins the label I would be so hyped if they made another run of the board.
