Posted by bkYup, it’s back for the eighth time. Go to the Emerica site, download a shirt template and give Emerica the best shirt graphic ever. If your design gets picked it will show up in a future apparel line and most likely on the backs of skaters everywhere. Pretty cool. Now think creative and get cracking.
Posted by ChrisThis past Wednesday, Shuriken Shannon entered the professional ranks armed with a well-deserved signature deck at Black Label. Not without functional threads for too long, Danny Garcia has joined up with the reconditioned and impressive skate program at Quiksilver. Over where function, style and the love for art and skateboarding is held in high regard, Nestor Judkins has been welcomed to the RVCA team.

Posted by bkJust in time for the holidays, Deluxe has delivered yet another gem of an online catalog to showcase their brands’ select seasonal offerings. But, that’s not all. Turn the pages and you’ll find video clips and nuggets with their pro and am team riders, flow crew footage, Johnny Romano and friends at Make-A-Wish 07, and the thoughts of an expanding of war.
Posted by bkBack home after their adventurous “Mild Ride” along the California coast last week, the RVCA skate team has simmered down to relax and reflect on their good times on the road. Have a look at their Mild Ride blogness right here.
They still have the Vespas on loan for another week, so don’t be surprised if you see Captain Jim and his crew ripping around OC for lunch breaks and skate missions.
Posted by bkThis New York Times piece reports on what most of us already know…that skateboarding isn’t just popular with white kids in the suburbs. They name drop Ray Barbee, Kareem Campbell, Harold Hunter and grab some quotes from Stevie Williams. Of course ‘Skateboard P’ (aka Pharrell Williams) is given way too much credit and that damn ‘Kick Push’ is mentioned. Out favorite quote is from NYC street king Jefferson Pang…
“UNSURPRISINGLY, some first-time skaters drawn into the sport by catchy choruses or candy-colored sneakers are dismissed as poseurs. “You’ll see kids that are dressed up like Mars Blackman, wearing Cazals and a cycling cap and tight denim, and they’re walking around with a skateboard as an accessory, holding it in a way we call “the mall grab”.

TWS has obtained a solid piece of information behind Lakai’s long overdue and highly anticipated video” Fully Flared” which premiers this Friday. TWS editor Carlton Curtis had the opportunity to pull its ace lensman TY Evans away from the cameras and editing duties for an in-depth Q & A. There’s obviously a lot more time, patience and variables involved with skate videos and film making in recent years, and with the quality and goodness of Fully Flared the bar will certainly be raised.
Read on and get inspired.
