Texas Longhaul So Far...

Texas Long Haul 2012 is getting closer and I just wanted to do a shout out to all the companies that have sent their care packages and support thus far.

Special Thanks to Loaded, Orangatang, Southside Skateshop, Randal Trucks, and Sector 9.

I am sure to be getting more gear and goodies in for my riders but those companies are in a hurry to show that Texas is the new skate scene. Endless.

The Season Begins

Well its getting to be that time again: skate season. The IGSA has an amazing line up of races as always for the world cup and we all know Texas riders are more stokes than anyone out there.

On to business now.

This weekend we have the SLAB City Session starting Saturday and rolling into Sunday. Get out there and shred it. Also be ready as rumor has it another SLAB Fest is coming up. Dates I cant say but we all know last years event was sick. Cant wait to compete again.

More news and updates I will have for everyone tomorrow. Peace.

Camping? We will be camping because we are awesome. However we are still fat so have cash money for food and LOTS of water along the way.

REQUIREMENTS:
There will be a $10 entry fee.
You MUST wear a helmet. No helmet no ride.

Profits made from this I will be donating to the MD Anderson Cancer Center downtown so I encourage people to help out and get businesses into this. If not, oh well.

2012 Review

Everyone has their Christmas money, right? Go to your local Carve Skate Shop if you live in Houston or Austin, otherwose go to any non Zumiez skate shop and buy new gear! Start the new year off right and be ready to shred it.

Recap on new years day: we had the Dam DH race at Mansfield Dam on new years day. Gnar turnout and some amazing heats. Sadly I got speed wobs and wrecked so I didnt get very far as it was single elimination. Boo. Brian Cortright got first, followed by Dustin Dixon and Zac Sharp. One hell of a race.

Till later, shred on.
