Welcome Home – Mike Vallely – Powell
On June 20th 1987 Stacy Peralta presented The Bug graphic to Mike Vallely who had his heart set on an African Elephant for his first graphic, so he rejected the art. The Bug graphic ended up being used on a team board.
Mike never stopped thinking about the art and how VCJ drew The Bug specifically for Mike. In celebration of Mike coming back to Powell-Peralta, they have all decided that The Bug’s time has come. Shipping to skate shops worldwide.
