new grip

I don't know whether or not to take the question "are you going to blog this?" as an insult or serious question anymore. but anyway, been trying to find a cruiser board that I liked both the graphic/size/shape of for a year or so now and finally found it. Limited edition(333 made) Krooked Steve Olson/Mark Gonzalez "Suck It" deck. shopped around online trying to find one with no luck until someone on ebay was selling one for 70 shipped, i snagged it.
decided to do it up right with a proper grip job, went to work thinking of ideas and came up with this:


So once the deck arrived I got a sheet of grip and went to work to have the dude that runs the ZUND to cut out this design with the ZUND iCut machine we have, here is a picture of it cutting:


Then straight to the shop to get Jack to help me put it on, which proved to be the hardest part. But here is the finished product, not perfect but probably the best we could have gotten it.
