In their own words, from a skateboarder’s perspective, Ready Amongst Willing is the outsider’s way of getting in and the true insider’s way of finally realizing that there is no getting out. Here we have a look at two pieces from their upcoming collection. God Bless Skateboarding is meant to treat skateboarding as an ideal, not a sport. It is inspired by the fact that people say “God Bless America” in the USA; where RAW comes from. Cut Your Losses is a new graphic drawn by Ryan Lombardi from Enamel Kingdom. It was inspired by Scorcese’s The Departed and a book called Freedom: Credos From The Road by Ralph “Sonny” Barger. You can see the Cut Your Losses design after the jump.
