Black Label just dropped their latest deck series, and all I can say is it’s an absolute heater. The new “Smoking Section” features three absolute legends with original artwork by John Lucero, bringing the perfect blend of nostalgia and modern day stoke to your wall (or, of course, under your feet). Take a look:

The series features an Omar Hassan 9.25” Black Widow—a beast of a shape for a beast skater; a Jason Adams 9.5” Custom Egg—instant classic. And my personal favorite, a Matt Hensley 9.5” Tugboat. Uh, yeah. A Hensley graphic on a Tugboat? That’s truly a no-brainer. Every one of these graphics hit hard!

With a lineup of planks this solid, the toughest decision isn’t whether to cop one—it’s whether to skate it or hang it up. But honestly, why not do both? Don’t be scared!
Black Label has been on an undeniable hot streak over the past few years (or, let’s be real—since 1988), dropping some seriously bangin’ graphics and this series is no exception. Whether you’re a die-hard fan of Hassan, Adams, or Hensley, or just appreciate rad shapes and Lucero’s artwork, this collection is probably calling your name as loud as it’s calling mine.
So what’s the move? Hit up your local skate shop and pick one up, or grab one straight from Lucero on the Black Label site.
