Red Stag Block Party hosted Familia's Battle at WIzards Wedge sponsored by Ipath Footwear. Thanks to all the rippers for pushin, all the Ipath flow squad for reppin, Familia for being down for the get down, and Kevin Horn for the edit. I had a great time and I hope you did too.
-Thanks to all the Skaters, Haters, Players, Homies, Jim Thomes, Lurkers, Murkers, and Familia Skateshop for Coming down to The Red Stag for Battle at Wizards Wedge. Super fun, tons of tricks, great weather, pink drink, beer, Ipath shoes, cash, tons of goodtimes. Yeah to that!
Party Pooch and I are Proud today that after a official Rome Team update, it's announced Midwest Am Army Rider Marie Hucal will be bumped up to the main squad. If you don't know this young lady you sure will soon, with opener in last years Peep Show movie, clips in regional films like Fresh Airs "This Side Up", and parts in both upcoming releases Peep Shows "Let make better mistakes tomorrow" as well as Syndicates "Sooner or Later". You'll surely recognize her ripping style and handling of some heavy rails. With Marie France Roy down this years because of neck injury, Marie was asked to join Rome SDS for the Team Shoot Out where she left a strong impression on the crew riding tuff despite a pretty heavy shoulder injury and illness. I know, it goes with out saying for many, but it takes a lot for a Midwest rider to make it to this level. Others have and more will garner opportunities, but it's still quite a testament to her passion for snowboarding as well as her abilities to rip. Marie also is stepping up on Holden Outerwear and receives a lot of support from Ashbury Eyewear. Congratulations Marie and keep chargin!
Surf Week my ass, this dood straight roles into this a day after having a some Great Whites role on him the day before.
"The day before I shot this video, i was SUP surfing with a couple friends and 2 sharks circled us for about 15 minutes. the next day, i decided to go back out at around the same time and take my GO PRO HD camera mounted on a 10 ft pole and do some exploring. . . Sure enough within 5 minutes a 9 ft shark came out of no where and circled twice and slapped his tail on my board before disappearing. then a minute later a 7 ft young juvenile Great White swam circles around me for 12 minutes."
Balls!
Man, this is scary! To the heads the love Surfin, I got mad props for you. But NO WAY!
Jack Boyd caught up with Mike Thienes to pick the mind of Bald-E-Gal producer and The Youth Shelter Supply Shop co-owner/worker. It's a great read and you can here from Mike in the forth coming Corduroy Release?!
Busy Times. So much is going down or has in the last few weeks. I'm behind in sharing it on here. So this will be a long post with tons-o-links. Products hitting doors, big mags first issues are out, big biznasty is calling the shots and forcing out good people. Yep Snow on the ground in a few months and it's pre-pre hype over drive! Peep Rome SDS newest Regional Ripper Josh Dyer above.
- Familia's Ghost Ride the Whip went down, it was awesome. Benji Meyer made a small edit of some of the highlights. Check it!
-The Youth Shelter Supply's own Dan Brisse has been up at COC, peep his park edit. Also Mr Sexton has been in Canada a ton like it's his country or something. He also has shots in the Stepchild COC week edit.
-Jake Durham's Make Friends Premiered at Cal Surf Friday night. Sounds like he had some Technical Difficulties prior but pulled it. I was luck to make it home in time for a sweet movie filled with friends, fun, shred, randomness, and partying.
-Last years Ladies flick Peep Show debut to great response. Midwest riders Terra Michilot and Marie Hucal brought they're stylings on snow to that project and return for the second flick. Check here for the updates.
