Jim Phillips!!! Legendary.

[@DrNo918]

Man yoy guys are the epitome of what a KZbin channel should be doing not only for skateboarding but in general you guys are amazing I'm a 27 year old army vet and nothing makes me happier than watching the videos you guys post. It really brought me back to wanting to go out and SKATE everyday and now that's what I do. Thank you guys for all the hard work you're putting into these videos.

Roskopp sold so many boards cause of Phillips!! That is so cool with all three generations hanging out in the garage. I need to go up to Santa Cruz soon to visit.

[@andyjohnson3656]

my son is a graphic designer for skateboards he's only 13. I am proud of him u are his idol

[@roxxstar19]

This is an amazing insight to the beginning of the Santa Cruz logo

[@AUTOPSY666]

His son, Jimbo Phillips, is an amazing artist, too.

[@sequoiahughes8536]

I live in Santa Cruz and see that screaming hand logo everywhere. I always wondered about it

[@SlobZombie]

Jim you rule!

[@timnaish7941]

Great stuff! Yeah Jimbo has indeed inspired many a creative misfit (including myself). Misfit being meant as a complimentary term as these are more often than not the people who think differently enough to bring something fresh and worthwhile to the table. Unfortunately the 'look and feel of the skate graphic as we know it' has in my opinion been tarnished by many skate brands favouring commerciality over originality these days and short changing their audience with weak, uninspiring, or just safe, trend following graphics lacking in any real substance. There are thankfully still a handful that continue to impress, but I feel there's definitely a general need for skate brands to try harder to stretch the boundaries with their artwork rather than just playing it safe and delivering the same tired old imagery.

[@Felixrato]

The original!!!

[@chainsawteddybear]

[@jayeffsixteen]

Legend. Where can I buy that t-shirt?!

[@skysea333]

I love your artwork, I've purchased quite a bit and road Santa Cruz boards, grew up in Capitola ..went to Capitola Elementary school. One thing though, I don't understand why you don't recognize Ed "Big Daddy" Roth as being an influence. It's obvious his art style left a major imprint on you. Best Wishes!

[@yasmint1789]

Dang I wanna be a designer for boards too
