It's 4:20 am, but you don't need to set your alarm clock anymore, your powdah hound subconscious knows... it's time for dawn patrol! You sit up and slowly pull back the corner of your curtain in suspense only to see pitch black. You shine your phone light out to reveal flakes the size of quarters falling fast and furiously, everything in sight is already covered... it's a white out! While the rest of your house is fast asleep, you make coffee quick and pour into your mug, pull your food stash out of the fridge, and stuff it into your pack with the rest of our ammunition and tools for survival, then make your way out into the garage quietly closing the door to reality behind you. With a full arsenal of ammunition for the day locked and loaded in the back, you fire up your rig and blast the heat. With no other sign of life in sight, you roll up to your homie's house, who's already waiting out on the porch, they jump in. While the rest of the world sleeps in their white rooms, you're on dawn patrol surfing through the only white room that matters. By the time the rest of the jerry's make their way through rush hour traffic to the battle field, you've already got multiple kills in all the best stashes, dropping cliffs, not bombs, all morning long. This is dawn patrol, and this is your premier weapon of choice. Over time this camo has come to mean many things to many people, and worn equally by those fighting battles and for peace. The timing of this ski also fits this 50th anniversary of Woodstock, but rocking a message focused on dropping out of helis into pow fields instead of battle fields. The graphic is a mashup idea paying homage to a character from a badass vintage WW2 propaganda poster done by Walt Disney, but redone as a hornet as a nod to the heli squadron from Vietnam called the "Green Hornets", but rocking ski gear. Pair that with a yellow striped base and you’re ready to drop some cliffs, not bombs. I’m building only 350 pair of this new Limited Edition graphic on The Friend ski and hand signing and numbering each pair so you have a unique ski like no one else. This is your chance to grab a pair before these one-of-a-kind skis sell out! Also check out the Jacket and the rest of the products from the "Hornet" Collection...
