About the Skull & Snake Artwork:
Just as Mike McGill was perfecting the 540 McTwist in the summer of 1984 at Swedish summer camp, V.C.J. was working on a new deck graphic for him. Since the "Skull & Bones" theme was proving to be popular, that was the direction chosen for McGill's new deck. Mike's input was to add the snake and lightning bolts since there is an abundance of both in his home state of Florida. McGill's Skull & Snake is truly a classic skateboard icon.

- Mcgill Review by Aaron
I was 16 when the mctwist was accomplished. I’m proud to run this sticker. (Posted on 8/1/2019)Rating - Classic, I second that! Review by Joe
One of the best images of skull and snake ever created. V.C. Johnson kills it with this one. Every element comes together so well; hatching, color choices and composition. I have tried quite a few times to recreate this image with rapidograph as well as traditional pen and ink no attempt compares to the original. I agree with the other reviews, the actual sticker quality is the best.Rating
The symbolism of the skull and snake resonate on so many levels spiritually. It’s origins as far as I am aware tracing back to the garden of eden. The artistic twist of lightning bolts and red iris revive the make it it’s own. It’s an American traditional type of image, however executed in a super technical manner. Awesome! Thanks again for reading my review, Joe. (Posted on 1/13/2019)- Beautiful Review by James
