Say hi to Hello.
Growing tired of seeing much of the same style graphic and having a strong interest in typography and messages, professional veteran skateboarder Buddy Carr requested the help of New York based typographer and avid skater Antonio Carusone to make something totally new. Together they created HELLO, a skateboard that not only functions well but also has a simple, clean and clutter free look. Built around the premise that less is more HELLO is refreshing twist in skateboard art. The duo have many more unique, useful and eye appealing products planned of release in 2009.
The fun and functional all purpose skateboard.
Built around the simple idea that form follows function, Hello is not just another skateboard wrapped in a pretty package. Hello has been well thought out and designed for getting everyday skaters around the local campus, onto the board walk for surf checks and for casual rides at the local skate park. Hello's smaller deck size allows it to store easily in lockers, under desks or small spaces. It's softer wheels provide good grip, while also absorbing the bumps along the road. The trucks, with their ultra turning geometry and high rebound urethane bushings, allow for quicker turns, all of which add up to a fun and highly enjoyable ride.
