Description G&S JEFF PHILLIPS REISSUE Glass Breaking Graphic - Limited Number of 50 made. As we all know, Jeff Phillips was an incredible skateboarder. We wanted to debut this board on Suicide prevention Day Sept 10th to help bring awareness in addition to remembering the talent of Jeff Phillips, Skateboarder. Back Story- While attending the 2019 Skateboarding Hall of Fame awards, we saw Jeff's Sister accepting his Hall of Fame Award and talking about Jeff's childhood and Skateboarding years. We got in touch with her to get the Phillips Family blessing to release his very first Pro Model as a rookie with G&S in his early days of what was to become an amazing Skateboarding Career. Jeff rode for G&S for a short period of time in very early 80's and his Rookie Pro Model was released in 1983. And as seen in this very old G&S Ad there was supposed to be a second that never came.... *Note - Generous proceeds from the sale of this Model goes to the Phillips Family and to Suicide Prevention. $10 goes to the family (and which will go to a charity of their choosing) and a matching $10 per deck is donated to Suicide Prevention from G&S to National Suicide Prevention Lifeline in memory of Jeff Phillips.
