Phantom and Smokin Skull back in the bay

Phantom and Smokin Skull back in the bay
Chris 'Phantom' Garrett packed up his tools, a couple of boards and a packed lunch and headed for the airport to jump on a sky bus pointed our way. He's made his way back onto Deus turf to tag team some new sleds with the Smokin Skull. Old Smokey's shaping bay / resin pit will be full steam ahead for the next 2 weeks…foam will be cut, resin will be spilled and swearing will fill the air, but some sick co-lab sticks shall emerge from its toxic haze. Phantom will be shaping up some of his trademark cuts as well as taking custom orders for the lucky few who pipe up first. From there Smokin Skull will get down and dirty on those things, laying down some 'one off' art that should really be hung on a gallery wall. So if your in the neighborhood for a sleek new slide machine and want the guys to whip you up a custom creation or just wanna drop by to see the process in action, come pay us a visit before the list gets long!

On the edge of Harajuku, a bold new sign has risen - The Residence of Impermanence - in Harajuku, Tokyo, is back. Art, surfboards, motorcycles, apparel, café, music - a place where all kinds of enthusiasms collide. Step inside to the Deus Café - a breezy open ceiling space, serving all-day breakfast and the perfect energy for every moment. We're not ones to argue with that. Climb the spiral staircase to surfboards quietly lined against a softly lit backdrop.

Shaped exclusively for the Residence by Takuya “Tappy” Yoshikawa, Tetsuya Ogawa, and Jared Mell, each board is one of a kind. Sofas once beloved at the former Harajuku store — crafted by TRUCK Furniture and Stephen Kenn — have been reupholstered and brought to life for their next chapter. They’ll take on new character with time — just like this place. We invite you to settle in and enjoy the flow.

Same name. New form. The spirit remains, just slightly rearranged. Come in, stay awhile. Find us at 2-32-5 Jingumae, Shibuya-Ku, BPR Square Jingumae 1-1F & 2F Tokyo.

In Benzin Veritas!
