Quasi Deck Brian O'Dwyer Sync 2 (8.5) is the second half of Brian O’Dwyer’s Sync series, built around a darker, more broken-up collage graphic that fits Quasi’s raw visual language. The bottom graphic uses stacked image blocks, heavy black-and-white contrast, a deep blue motorcycle panel, paint-splatter marks, cropped abstract imagery, and a lower section with distorted color fragments and raised hands. “Brian O’Dwyer” runs vertically along the right side, with the Quasi logo sitting near the tail, giving the whole deck a zine-like, photocopied, video-still feel.
At 8.5" wide, this Sync 2 version gives O’Dwyer’s debut Quasi series a wider platform than Sync 1 while keeping the same 31.75" length and 14.25" wheelbase. The Q63 shape has a slightly fuller, more squared-off nose and tail compared to the Q53, making it a solid choice for skaters who want more board under their feet without jumping into a huge shape. The mellow-to-medium concave with a steep kick gives it a controlled feel for ledges, rails, stairs, flatground, and hard street skating.
Brian O’Dwyer came up through New Jersey, New York, and Philadelphia street skating with a fast, aggressive, all-or-nothing approach. His footage in Down Bad, Some Pulp, She’s Cheating, Baker Has a Deathwish Part 2, and his Venture Trucks part helped build his reputation as a heavy video-part skater before he moved to Quasi and turned pro. Quasi itself carries an art-driven identity rooted in the post-Alien Workshop/Mother Collective world, with Chad Bowers behind the brand’s direction and a team history tied to riders like Gilbert Crockett, Jake Johnson, and Tyler Bledsoe. Around Monrovia, Pasadena, Arcadia, Duarte, Covina, Glendora, Claremont, and South Pasadena, this is the kind of board that works for skaters who want a real shape, real footage behind the name, and a graphic that does not look like everything else on the wall.
