Old Spitfire ad
« on: January 19, 2009, 02:57:12 PM »
I'm trying to find this old spitfire ad from a few years back. If i remeber correctly, it was a two page spread of all these big heads colored in reference to the team riders. Anyone remeber that one?

I think it was in a 2004 issue of Thrasher? I would check, but most of my issues from that year are held together with scotch tape. Sorry.

Fuck yes, that was probably one of my favourites ads ever... I had an issue of Thrasher that had it and thought it was genius the way each head managed to sum up the personality of each rider with only a few additions. Would love to have it as a high res download, someone please make it happen!

This reminds me, Thrasher also did something similar with the girl from the "Oh god why can't my boyfriend skate?" tshirt with pop culture references (Kiss, Clockwork Orange, etc etc) for a subscription pull-out. I always thought that they would have had made an awesome sticker pack... think I still have it somewhere, will have to have a look for it

Isn't there an Enjoi colab with Phelps as the girl saying why can't my boyfriend skate? That would make such a sick shirt.

There is an older version of that spitfire ad. Not sure what year though. If anyone knows what year about, I could probably find it.

The oldest one I could remember was a single pager and had a black background.  Gall's was backwards or something and there was probably a Ryan Hickey one also.  Hopefully I can find it and still have it.

I think the older one also had Andy Roy with the spiderweb tat.  Must have been around 1995.

JT Aultz's is tite.

didn't he get badly hurt recently?
would you rather hear "woo" from the omar salazar pack? i wouldn't. their "yeahs" are genuine, and cool. "yeah" has been the battle cry of skaters for as long as i can remember.
