Powell Peralta started to swing back into what you would expect from them for 2015. The list ad has kind of a Celebrity Tropical Fish feel to it. The next two ads promote a tour of the south and midwest from 2015. The skaters are Charlie Blair, Shane Borland, Jarren Duke, and Eddie “Mighty” Moreno. It's Charlie and Mighty skating the gnarly pool. I didn't want this week to be simply ripping on peculiar advertising strategies so I closed it out with more traditional Powell offerings. It's cool to try different things, but you need to recognize when something probably isn't working.
It's been wet and very windy for the past week so I haven't been skateboarding at all. Usually our Novembers are fairly mellow, but this year has been blustery. I did check out Jamestown Skateboard Products last Saturday. It was nice to get out of the house on a rainy Saturday since I hadn't been to JSP in a little too long.
