I got this board from a guy who says it came from a Fuel TV holiday party auction. This was around 2008. He described it as a Roskopp graphic on a Hammerhead shape. It is indeed a Hammerhead shape and the graphic is basically an interpretation of the Roskopp face design. But this isn't by Jim Phillips and no other info is available. It has a serial of PS44299-0055 (the 00 looks more like a symbol) which leads me to believe it was made by PS Stix / Paul Schmitt. Apparently around 160 were made. I know nothing about Fuel TV but apparently they had some skating coverage / shows back in the day. Can anyone assist with info? Thanks..

Contact the Professor Paul Schmitt. He's on the book of faces.

Looks like a cheap imitation of Jim and Jimbos work but for some reason I come to think about tattoo artist Peter Bennett who also done similar stuff on skateboards. No idea if he worked for Fuel TV though. Or perhaps try to reach out to former Fuel host Jeff King.

Think it is what he says.... a promo deck on a hammerhead shape with a craptacular Rosskop homage graphic. If you like it then cool. If you're a Roskopp collector, then this doesn't belong on your wall. Doubt it's worth anything regardless of the limited numbers made.
