New York City shop DQM teams with the illustrious Girl Skateboards on a deck, tee and cap set.

Skateboarding is spontaneity. There is no set schedule. There is no two week notice. It’s everyday at anytime of the day. It’s all night long or it’s not at all. It’s a phone call from a friend or a chance run in on the street. It’s here one moment and the next it never existed. DQM and Girl Skateboards have come together to provide you with clean, no bull shit staples to get you from one session to the next and whatever may lay in between. The perfect shape, a pocket tee and cover from the sun. Everyday things you shouldn’t have to think about, and now you don’t.

Available in store (shopguide) and online at DQM July 1, 2011.
