Primitive Skateboards’ very own Aimu Yamazuki just got his own pro model shirt before even turning pro.
If that sounds unusual, well, that’s kind of the point.
The collab between Homeboy and Yamazuki dropped with an announcement that keeps things playful:
"OFFICIAL HANDS DOWN PRO MODEL OUT NOW ‼️ @aimu_yamazuki 🤲🏼👇🏼
Always wanted to skate like Aimu? Always wanted to be like Aimu? We got you!
Shop Aimus hands down pro model shirt now at www.homeboy.euSkate with 100% hands down all day, be like Aimu every day!
Must be nice!"
While most skaters have to officially turn pro to get their name on a product, this release flips the script. Homeboy is rolling with the joke and making it happen early.
Yamazuki’s skating speaks for itself, so the fact that he’s still technically amateur doesn’t change much. If anything, this move just adds to his growing recognition in the scene. The shirt itself reflects his signature style.
Skaters love a good inside joke, and this release is packed with that same kind of humor. It’s a nod to his approach, his presence, and the fact that sometimes, you don’t need to follow the usual path to make an impact.
So, if you want to rep Yamazuki before the pro title officially lands, now’s your chance. Grab the Hands Down pro model shirt, throw it on, and keep your hands down just like the good homie.
