Ha, beat you to the punch...Just kidding...Looks as if we could stand an Official DF Thread so maybe the mods could migrate all of our DF moments into one nice local thread. I will kick it off with photos from my experience at the Costa Mesa Active Rideshop Event. David is absolutely as approachable as one could ever be!!! Way laid back, totally down to earth, and a F'in wicked artist. Love the style...

Dude, DF is off the chain. Total down to earth dude with mad talent. He is a real nice guy and was out signing boxes and shirts till no one was left. Real class.

This is when he walked in. Gaslamp employees were real cool about fans taking pics with him. This is my wife, DF, and me. PW shot with DF?


I won the raffle to be first to buy a pair. They had 10 pairs and you had to be picked to be able to get a pair. This goes out to the man in the far east known as the Doc.



This portrait will eventually go on a Burton Custom X series 13. I feel like a celebrity now since DF drew me. MAD PROPS TO DAVID FLORES FOR DOING THIS!




It was an awesome night. Free drinks if you wanted and Mos Def's DJ. Big shout out to Melissa (best DM in the soutwest), Mark, Katie, Suchi (sp?), and Tanya.

Jumpman, the portraits David Flores did for you is easily one of the most coolest things I've seen.

Look at what just joined my DF Gascan's............The Blue KonArtis!!!!

Oh soooo SWEET! Nice grab Tony. I want one.

Wicked Bro...Did you drop $80 for it?

Yes i did, i could not help it. It goes so perfectly with DF gascan!!!!!

You can get them at www.kidrobot.com. From what I have heard, these are limited to about 100 in each color(Red, Blue and Green).

Very nice, you can't wrong with the color. That is one cool setup.

Thanks Archer.

finally i found this thread too


NICE PIC`S guys!!!!!

I love the DF Snowboard--that is definitely something I'd rock on the slopes--if I had the dough! (Gotta stop spending so much on the O.....nah that'd be wwwwaaaayyyy too hard).

hey i just wanted to ask you guys something. I just got my df2's i got off ebay today and i looked at the box and it had a production number of 148 on it and then on the arm it has a number of 258. I thought these were supposed to match up so i just wanted to know if anyone knows anything about them and could tell me if they are okay? cheers

I've never heard of a pair that matches the box. My pair certainly didn't, and everyone else here (I believe) had mismatched numbers on their boxes. I guess the "O" just really didn't give a flying flip whether or not the numbers matched. Those of you with DF2's feel free to chime in (as I suspect we're all in the same boat).

Nope, so go by the serial on the glasses.

exactly...I bought 6 pair for the members here, and not 1 matched...

I want a pair!

Thanks for the info though, I'm sure I would have wondered the same when I finally get my hands on a pair.

sweet i was a bit worried so that is awesome now i was freaking out a bit. They look so much better in real life aye. now just to wait for some df1's to come along... i will start saving now lol.

hey just another question for you guys... with the original david flores gascans. Was there any artwork on the microfiber bag? I have been looking everywhere for pics and i cannot find any. Dam them hackers who deleted all the pictures!!!!!

Nope, just a black bag. Not even a special tag. I think due to the limited run, they just threw in the bags. Expecially after the production count doubled at the last minute.

I do regret selling mine

So it was rumoured that Oakley distanced itself from Flores due to his past. If that's true, then here's a headscratcher:

Flores did some art for their London Olympics Athletes lounge. Huh.

A new collab would be awesome

Yes, now that the original debacle blew over from his original releases, it appears they Flores is back in the saddle...at least for now.
