Behold, comrades! Feast your eyes upon the latest marvel from the depths of the Nightwood universe: the Meelis Erm model!

And what better homage than the 4th installment under the Nightwood banner dedicated to the man himself!

And let's not forget the sorcery of our Polish brethren at Locals Skateboards MFG, who waved their wands to craft this beast into reality. Now, brace yourselves...
