Bam is a true part of Element Skateboard’s history. We all know Bam from his TV appearance on Jackass and Viva La Bam when he exposed millions of viewers to skateboarding back in 2000. Now at 38 years young Bam has sorted his life out, stopped terrorizing his dad, lost a bunch of weight and is back shredding.
He’s back from 5 years off of skating following some heavy injuries and personal battles. But like many others, Element are stoked he’s picked a board back up.
And let’s not forget Bam’s involvement with rock band CKY, which if you didn’t know stands for ‘Camp Kill Yourself’.
Vans Pro Skate coming through with a very special highly limited release this time collaborating with Arizona-based skateboarding collective ‘Pyramid Country.’
This year being the 25th Anniversary of the ever popular and highly regarded Vans Half Cab it’s great to see these well thought out collab’s backing up the now legendary status of Steve Caballero’s Pro silhouette. You can tell the time and effort put into this release as the detailing and premium materials used are on a whole other level. The uppers are constructed with a pig suede, leather and mesh materials, embossed Pyramid Country tetrahedron detail, custom insole artwork along with featuring all the usual Vans Pro upgrading using the Duracap reinforced sole unit and Ultracush HD sockliners. Leaving the best detail till last and giving these a serious ‘wow factor’ these bad boy’s GLOW IN THE DARK! Yeah, that waffle gum sole unit not only sticks like hell to your board but also gives off some toxic like glow when creeping in the darkness.
Get to know the weird and wonderful world of the Pyramid Country below. The Sonoran Desert has a lot to answer for…
