WINNER!!! PHOTO DESCRIPTION: Matt Hensley was one of the most influential skateboarders when I first started skating back in the late 80s; I've followed his career in skateboarding, music, and his ventures in clothing ever since. This picture shows my collection of 22 Hensley decks (including an original Eagle)and my stash of Innes gear from over the years. My collection of Hensley Black Label decks might be one of the most complete in existance (aside from Matt's own), and I'm only missing a handful of his models from Black Label. The Plan B deck is one of only two Warrior Women that I have seen since 1997, both being in my possession over the years. I'm sure that people might think that I have a so-called "man crush" on Hensley; however I am just giving respect to one of the greatest icons in skateboarding history. - Rob |

Francesco Jekill Albertini PHOTO DESCRIPTION: Hi, this is the original china pen xerox copy of the very original Matt Hensley King Size. I did about 19 years ago, and I'm so stocked that the old matt still likes it. I designed it here in Rome, Italy, and when I flought to San Diego and showed him... well, I remember the feeling of that moment. We were both so excited. Thanks Matt! Killer to see you still in such a great shape! |
