Santa Ana, California - April 20, 2009 - After 3 years of support, Supra Footwear welcomes Vancouvers’ own Spencer Hamilton to the Am Team.
When asked about Spencer, Antwuan Dixon had a few words of his own:
“Yeah you already know who this is, this Antwuan man and I’m gonna be talking about my boy Spencer. He’s from straight Vancouver, Canada where the weed is legal. Basically my boy got some talent. He’s a cool dude, he’s hard on a skateboard, and he let’s the good times roll if you know what I mean. Plus he vibes with everybody and ain’t nobody got any bad vibes about him, you know what I’m sayin’? He’s down with cool people and cool people are down with him. So, I just want to say we all know you got talent, you’re my homie, and all I can say is congratulations!!

One of the best thing that the digital age in skateboarding has brought around is the fact that it’s leveled the playing field- with the skaters, the company owners, the mag guys and the regular skater in the street all working with the same access to the same outlet (website/forum/blog), nobody is better than anybody else. A kid in Sacramento or Scandanavia or Somalia can shoot a photo or write an article or film a video or make a website and it’s out there for the whole world to see, same as any established name. There’s so much untapped talent out there that finally has a better chance to shine, and so to that democratic end, SLAP and Real skateboards have joined forces to offer you- yes YOU- a chance to design Real ads. This is exclusive to SLAP forum members. Every week a new SLAP pal will be picked by Real to design an ad (you can actually lay it out yourself if you have those computer skills, or just give them rough sketches, or even just rough ideas) and then have YOUR ad run for an entire week on the SLAP site. Once a month there’ll be a run-off from the past four ads that you can vote on at dlxsf.com- the winning ad maker gets all kinds of cool stuff. Who knows what this might turn into for somebody with good ideas. Check the details… By the way, this is an idea from Real Skateboards, who knows how much good stuff comes out of the SLAP forum, so support that…
Menig skateboarder kent tegenwoordig wel The Berrics. De site heeft naast wekelijkse features ook een webshop, waar ze meestal behoorlijk gelimiteerde dingen verkopen, zoals bijvoorbeeld een speciale Adidas Campus Vulc Benny Fairfax colorway of boards die alleen bij de webshop verkocht wordt.
Zo ook speciale collabo’s met Deathwish
Deze boards waren zeer snel uitverkocht en op de site van de Berrics is een filmpje te zien waarin Berra naar Baker Boys distribution gaat om de boards te halen en hij houdt tegelijkertijd een interview waarin goed naar voren komt dat de hele distributie compleet skater-owned is, iets wat tegenwoordig nog zelden voorkomt. Ellington en Greco hebben al hun geld in deze distributie gestoken en er werken ook alleen maar vrienden en andere skateboarder. Klik op het bovenstaande plaatje voor het filmpje Support die shit dus!
En check deze sequence van Watson, dit is van de dag na het ongeluk.
UPDATE :: After a night at the Tampa General emergency room, Karl Watson emerged from the hospital wielding a fractured cheekbone & jaw. Surgery would be elective and would briefly stop Karl’s smile from shining through, so Karl chose to continue on without it
Danny Wainwright Joins KR3W Family
KR3W APPAREL is very proud to announce the addition of one of the skateboarding world’s finest to our family, Danny Wainwright.
In addition to bringing his amazing skateboarding talents to KR3W, Danny will also contribute his valuable perspectives regarding the KR3W Europe team and marketing as well. “I’ve always wanted to be more involved with all the aspects of being on a team, both Manu and Ben have been extremely positive and supportive and I really look forward to get things rolling.”
Danny is currently dividing his time between managing his world famous skate shop Fifty-Fifty and bouncing between his hometown of Bristol and sunny Barcelona. When asked if there was truth to the rumors that he’s recently been skating a lot with the elusive Tom Penny, Danny responded, “It’ s really good to be out cruising with Tom again. We have known each other for many years. Lately we have been hooking up almost everyday and going out shooting photos and cruising new spots.
Deze nieuwe ad van Furby gaat dus echt te ver, switch heel van het 5de blok. Open hem in een nieuw tabblad voor een groter formaat.

Of het een succes was? Zeker.
Super hoeveel mensen op dit evenement zijn afgekomen.
Het was een zeer gezellig avond, met veel geskate, en nog meer bier… Althans, voor Patrick Reins die uiteindelijk de Skate or Dice had gewonnen.
160 Halve liters bier voor onze vriend uit Amersford.
Helaas had onze filmer zich er niet in weten te slagen om zijn batterijen op te laden, waardoor er nog geen filmpje online is verschenen op het internet.
(Bij deze heeft hij zijn excuses aan alle lezers aangeboden. En verzekeren jullie dat de volgende keer wel alles netjes op tape komt te staan!)
Gelukkig heeft onze vriend Correy zich er wil in weten te slagen, en alles netjes en verzorgt op tape geknald!
Hier het resultaat!
