A quick nod on These Wheels‘ Facebook page and a simple logo placed at the end of the edit tells us that our homeskillet Byron Essert will have his own pro model downhill skateboard deck made by Powell-Peralta. Yes, yes, y’all—this is the same Powell-Peralta that made large waves in skateboarding in the late 70’s & early 80’s. If their next move in skateboarding is anywhere near as powerful as the first, the future is looking bright. We’re stoked for Byron, for Powell-Peralta, for These Wheels, for ourselves (we want to ride this deck!), and for everyone else involved! We’re also stoked at the cinematographic nod toward Liam Morgan at the end of this particularly cinematic edit. Ha ha!
