Matt McMullan | Remembered Forever – Flip Skateboards
Matt McMullan was both a team rider and very close friend. Matt seemed like he had everything, but like too many others, life’s growing pains and struggles were overwhelming him. Suffering in silence and despite family and friends who cared dearly for him, we lost Matt, February 4th 2006. None of us saw it coming.
Matt designed a Flip Peace sign logo which we have decided to bring to life to commemorate his memory as well as a reminder to all of us to watch out for friends in trouble and to personally seek help when life get’s tough.
These decks are hand screened in a very limited drop. Sold online at The Palomino Club and in person at Supreme London. All proceeds go to the Ben Raemers Foundation towards suicide prevention.
