    Great. Seeing this totally took the wind out if the sails of the Carbon boat I was enjoying so much. Looks sick though. (god damn it.)

    I assume the blue is just tape covering up the actual design of the skate? His blog shows a blurry mock up of a skate with a different skin.

    the only problem i have is the colors. i mean, honestly, they just clash, they don't look good AT ALL. I mean, hell, I skate xsjado, so I shouldn't be one to talk about aesthetics, but at least xsjados have a reasonable color scheme going. thats the only thing that needs fixing on that skate, but im sure it'll be addressed in future prototypes. get psyched on a new skate design, you won't.

    just an un educated guess, but it seems like every part is a different color so you can see all the different parts more clearly. Seein as its just a prototype dangle, that makes the most sense in my head, i dont think he made it like that to look 'frsh'

    No, you're right Dre, that makes a lot of sense, I wasn't thinking from that stand point, but that does make a lot of sense looking at the skate now.

    If you’re making a prototype of something in an early stage of development, you tend to use materials because you expect them to perform in a certain way.

    Shure, adding color sort of changes the characteristics of a certain material, but before you think about aestetics you have to find the proper material.

    ***CONSPIRACY THEORY***

    Xsjado magazine ad stating "New everything in 2010"

    The Imperial has a carbon XSJADO cuff, uses a FOOTWRAP and the frame looks like an altered MOOK.

    USD absorbed Deshi....

    USD will absorb Xsjado with LATIMER and the IMPERIAL taking over where XSJADO left off.

    THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE??????? ROOTZ????
