VIOLET - William Strobeck Board Company

[vhsfisheye]

Confused why there Instagram bio is “VIOLET MAGAZINE” I’m excited to see the videos bill puts out with these kids who are all some of my current favs especially Troy, efron & seven. I’m just glad I’m not getting an Fa/ hockey vibe from the ad

[GuessAgain?]

Wow a 90s-esc aesthetic, girl's name, and an airbrush logo. I feel like this is pretty much just an amalgamation of any brand/clothing line I've seen any supreme shop staff create since 2016.

Starting to wonder how different this is actually going to be to Supreme or FA, it's kinda funny how even his own bedroom is too associated with those brands that most people aren't even going to tell the difference. Maybe that's what he's going for though, blur the lines

Not saying Violet should go full Myspace but there's seven people on the team and if add Tom in that eighth spot, you have a fire top 8 for the official myspace team page.

Didn’t Joey O’Brian do gap to nose grind?

[Coastal Fever]

Gonna need multiple photo angles taken with a phone camera of that gap to lip spot, like for T Funk’s China Banks ollie, to determine exactly how fucked said lipslide actually is.

what street is this on? assuming this is in NYC

[huggs]

90s big brother vibes. curious to see what the reception is – FA/hockey already #1 in teh streets but is there enough bandwidth for a third company. maybe the skating is good enough and that'll be all that matters

[Blueabyssofthisss]

That logo is worse than Naks turd defferd logo

[lydius]

that's a smart way to introduce the brand, doing wheatpaste posters in the streets like that, just like he had done for Blessed. i like it, real skaters pushing through the streets actually get to see it. it meets them where they are

Also that lil kim jumpsuit outfit was mind-blowing as a kid. Great callback.

Yes, guerrilla wheat-pasting, another brilliant visionary decision by Bill. Funny how some people will give this dude props for/be so easily impressed by literally anything he does. I guess if all my cultural acumen was still exclusively filtered through skateboard media (like when I was 15) he might seem knowledgeable and sophisticated, and not like just a skilled skateboarding filmer with mediocre, oftentimes bait taste in music/aesthetics.

one of the graphics

[white guy in a durag]

Are we witnessing the first CCS custom graphic brand?

[ShutYoMouthFoo]

one of the graphics

Pretty sure that’s just the sticker they’ve been putting on there boards

[burm]

Yeah I’d be down for that Lil Kim graphic, but not a board graphic that looks like a blank after 2 boardslides. But sticker sounds more plausible.

[in love w/ fs shuvs]

Yo wait, this team would be sick if Alex joined. It's got like a nice clean vibe a la 917 and those kids all rip. This would probably never happen tho.

[Genericwhitemale]

If it has that FA shape, that's all the matters.

[RichardBarkley]

Joey O'Brien already did this no?
