A three-deck triptych built for @travisbarker to celebrate Louder Than Fear — a thank you to him from @stevevandoren and @vansgirl1 for being everything a Vans ambassador should be.

This one took a village, and I want to name every single person in it.

@stevevandoren and @vansgirl1 — thank you for bringing us in on this.

@jr_the_stitcher — the man. Every stitch of that checkerboard backdrop is his. Pure artistry.

@dcardona — all the graphic design across the three decks. No AI was used!

@bflo87 — wrapped and printed every deck on the Mimaki.
@cruzing — helped too! That’s him laying down the UV DTF in the video.

And here’s the part I’m proud of: almost nobody could have built this under one roof. GarmentPrinter.com did.

🖨️ Decks printed on the Mimaki UCJV300-160 on holographic media
✨ Grando for the UV DTF lettering and the TPU patches
🧵 ZSK for the embroidery
✂️ Graphtec on the cutting and plotting

Four machines, one building, one crew — plus coordinating every artist on this list. That’s what we actually do here. Not just shirts. If you can imagine it, we’ve probably got the machine for it.

Everybody brought their piece. That’s the only way something like this happens.

Vans royalty. 🖤🤍

@stevevandoren and @vansgirl1 with @travisbarker and the finished piece. Thank you both for trusting us with this one.

Every stitch in that frame is @jr_the_stitcher. 🧵

The man is an artist.

@teddydoolittle got all three decks mounted and hanging right.

All three decks. Every layer, every photo, every letter. 🎨

That’s @dcardona — and no AI was used in any of it

Scott Jensen 02/25/67 - 06/14/26 , memorial held 07/17/26 with family at friends..

Scotty built my @acmeskateboards skateboard factory back in 1995, and went on to build other Skateboard factories, and eventually built his own print business @monsterimage along with his wife Sandee @broadzilla. They did everything from car wraps to window displays to point of purchase displays and more.. Scotty was a hard worker and when he wanted to make something happen, he did… he was responsible for building factories that made millions of Skateboards, and you probably rode one yourself.

When Sandee sent me a text telling me he had passed, and that he had passed at work, it just reminded me of how hard he worked and how thankful I was for all the hard work that he and Sandee had done for me..

In the past few years, he’s printed many things for me and we’ve maintained a great relationship, and I’m going to miss that. If I picture him now he’s upstairs solving a problem, working on creating something, and missing his sweet wife Sandee and son Nicky.

Hope you are resting in peace my friend, and thank you for all the things you did to help me and others, you left a large impression behind, enjoyed by so many.

There were many attendee to Scotty’s Service, but Luis Cruz and family was one the really made me smile. Luis first worked at Acme Skateboards, Screenprinting boards, became really good friends with Sandee and later worked with Scotty up in LA as well.. it was real

Debuted @projectviaco with @cruzing and some of our favorite humans — @a._masn , @busybirdy , @kanokid , @ocd.cleaners , @potent__ .The artists and vendors I used to follow from afar are the coolest friends I know, and they were genuinely happy to see me working a behind booth again 🤣

Incredibly grateful for my @designercon family - my banana daquiri bud @bgoretsky , Big Sexy @_life_of_kai , @kingsontse , @aiksxo @thestrokesnerd @rickkitagawa @digitalnoir_studio for always taking care of me in Anaheim, Vegas and now Pasadena.

From rough blackbook sketch, inking to slap. Look mom, no AI 😂…. I’m old school like that. Working on my collection for my friends @xlargejp for our 35 year anniversary drop later this year. I had some slaps sampled so I can get busy on some collages for the collection. Trust the process.
