The man who souled the world

There also was an expo on Steve Rocco at Bright, one of the coolest expositions I've seen in a long while. Steve Rocco is the founder of brands like World Industries and Blind. When you think of those brands you probably think of gay-ass flameboy or that lame little reaper, but in the early 90's they changed the entire skateboard industry. Rocco also started Big Brother magazine from which Jackass was formed. Getting the picture? So go out and buy yourself the documentary about Rocco and his empire; The man who souled the world.







This is one of the boards they put out back then, they had to wrap it in black foil to be able to sell it in the shops. Rocco made sure everyone of them came with this 'warning' sticker on the outside.
