COCKROACH X BURFORD // AERIAL GANIMAL MODEL White

Lismore's finest Gary "Ganimal" Nowlan. So stoked to be able to reissue this classic from 86 with art by Tony Hancock. Anyone that has seen Gary skate over the years knows that he is a total ruler and skates with savage aggression.  His backyard ramp used to be 12 foot high on one side with 4 ft of vert and 10 on the other with 2.5 feet of vert. Needless to say he dominated everything after learning to skate on that ramp. Thanks for the years of inspiration Gary!
