我们用“大师”来形容一项运动里的先驱性人物,是这些滑手造就了今日的滑板运动,有些大师现在仍然踩着滑板驰骋。Z-Flex联合传奇滑板制作人Paul Schmitt为已故大师Jay Adams推出了一块独一无二的板面。

Jay 和 Paul曾经一起设计,为Jay打造一块从未体验过的顶级板面。

“Jay对Master Crafted Jay Adams板面非常兴奋”Jay的妻子Tracy Adams说道,“他说那是他人生第一次为自己设计滑板,他非常清楚自己需要的尺寸、形状、板子长度、板头板尾样子、轮子位置等等”

Tracy说Jay去“Professor‘s”店里打磨滑板时就像孩子走进了糖果店那样兴奋。

“他脑海中的设计已经成型,Paul帮他制作了他梦想中的板面,不论是锯木头还是打磨,Jay都乐在其中”

板面图案也由Jay Adams思考主题,采用了Jay提供的图案,图中撕开脑袋的图案代表了他生活中逃脱毒品的一部分。

最终产品宽为9.375英寸宽,长度为33英寸,轴距为15"

“Jay的风格总是那么独特,这块板在他看来可以完全代表他的风格。我真希望他可以看到这块板发布时人们的激动”Tracy Adams

这块板的收益也会直接交给Jay的家庭,安息吧Jay。

The ‘Masters’ of skateboarding are the pioneers of the sport, the skaters who paved the way for skateboarding today, and the skaters that are still out there ripping 20+ years later. There’s only one ‘Master’ that we could possibly start this series with, and that’s the original seed of skateboarding himself, Jay Adams, in collaboration with the legendary skateboard craftsman, Paul Schmitt.

Jay and Paul worked hand in hand in creating a unique board for Jay’s style to help him skate better than he’s ever skated before.

“Jay was super stoked about the Master Crafted Jay Adams deck,” said his wife Tracy Adams. “He said it was the first time in his life he ever designed a board himself. He knew EXACTLY what size board, what shape and length the nose and tail should be, where the wheel wells should be…..EVERYTHING.”

Tracy explained that on the day they went to the “Professor’s” shop to shape the deck, Jay was so excited – like a kid in a candy store.

“He went in with a specific design in mind and Paul was able to help him make his ‘dream skateboard deck’ and Jay had so much fun running the different saws, shaving the sides…the whole process from design to finish,” she said.

This graphic was conceived of and themed by Jay Adams, and was created using reference photos supplied by Jay. The theme revolves around Jay pulling his “Zipperhead” open, and allowing parts of his life to be shown in the escaping smoke.

The final product is a board fit for Jay coming in at 9 3/8” wide X 33 1Ž4” long and a 15” wheelbase.

“Jay skated with such a unique and amazing style… this board is what he believed would ride the best for his style… I wish he was here to see how much everyone is going to be stoked on his design.” – Tracy Adams

Proceeds from the sales of this board will go directly to Jay’s family. RIP Jay Boy.
