Shoma Takao has appeared in videos for artists such as STONP and DIRTY PIMP. Currently, he is a rider with many different interests, not only participating in various events, but also handling his own sock brand, SUXSOX, and being the owner of a restaurant called "Toomitsu" in Shibuya, Tokyo.
That's the news he sent me.
"I'm going to release a limited edition of 40 snowboards from my sock brand, SUXSOX. After 24 years of snowboarding, I've been able to make another small dream come true."
That's right, SUXSOX snowboards are going to be released.
The board in question is an all-round model that can be used in the park, on the street, and in powder, and comes in two sizes: 148cm and 151cm.
The design of the top sheet is a collaboration with OLI, a long-time friend of Shoma, who also drew the graphics for the DVD of STONP's latest work "STONP OR DIE". By the way, the image below shows the design.
"Athena, the goddess of war, rode on Pegasus and tamed the ferocious Pegasus with golden harness. The snowy mountains sometimes show their ferocious fangs, so mount your golden plank and challenge the mighty nature like Athena, and try to master it."
The sole features icicles that spell out "SUKINAKOTODAKESURU," which is also SUXSOX's catchphrase.
By the way, the items can only be purchased at Towomitsu/SUXSOX online site/SUXSOX POP-UP/OLI's solo exhibition.
