PaintHouse Helmet!

Not much to say on this... pretty stoked.


Too cocky? Good!

Thanks to Stacy at PaintHouse Customs for squeezing me ahead of the shady characters over at Decline Magazine!

I let Stacy do what ever the hell he wanted on my helmet, I gave him just a few likes and dislikes but this is his creation, here's what I guessed he would do!

Check out this link to Pinkbike and see his other helmets just released

PaintHouse Customs charity lid!



If anyone is reading this you know by now this blog is just our way of having fun and keeping it light, no marketing ploy just us being us but I have to be serious at some point and this post is for a good cause!


Stacy over at PaintHouse Customs just finished a custom helmet for the guys over at Sharpey's in Vancouver


But has jumped in on Sharpey's fundraiser to help out Ryder Evans Brockett battle brain cancer.



Big props to Stacy for making these rad helmets up for the cause. I found this shot on Ryders blog with Ryan Leech in the background. I am going to call up Ryan and see if he can get involved and get Ryder some autographs! Ryan is always stoked to use his celebrity status in a positive way!

Good deed done for the day!

PaintHouse Customs... does my helmet.



I've always wanted a helmet or frame done up fully custom, who hasn't dreamt of that. So when I saw the wood grained helmet on Pinkbike I was beyond stoked and found out who did it.



Stacy at PaintHouse Customs was the man behind the wood grain helmet so I called him up to do one for us/me.

Stacy with the God Father Simmons


Since I am not a high roller like Wade who gets paid in helmets, I had to buy one. So I thought it would be funny if I bought a custom painted THE Vegas helmet and get it custom painted. See the humour?


The humour got lost when I saw the visa bill forgetting that I bought it in US funds on a weak Canadian dollar!

I really wanted the Unicorn theme above to be the main focus but I was told that Unicorns and rainbows mixed isn't as cool as I thought. So I asked Stacy to do what ever the hell he wants with it just make it show Straitline some where and surprise me.


Today I got a sneak peek at the helmet and wow, it's black... you really went all out on this one Stacy.



Luckily this is just the Base coat after stripping the Vegas graphics off of it, now the fun begins. Right after my helmet gets doen Stacy has been enlisted by the guys at Decline Magazine for a Decline Magazine helmet then right after that one DIRT Magazine in the UK has an order in as well. Stoked to get one done at all before he gets over loaded.

What do you think he will put on it? Here are some of my guesses below:






Or something along the lines of this, and just keep it real.



But definitely check out his blog to see his latest creations PaintHouse Customs and I'll re post when it is done.
