Head over to www.thrashermagazine.com...they've got multiple clips from different cities of the Girl/Anti-Hero "Beauty and the Beast" Tour. Feed those eyes...
Mosey on over to Transworld Skateboarding's website to check out the Kansas City-Atlanta article by A-Smith (complete with a ton of photos). Always good to see the midwest get some attention in the mags. Speaking of, pick up the latest issues of Transword and SLAP...our new video Fourteen Deep received stellar reviews in both.
It's now Nueve de Mayo...so we slacked on posting this Cinco de Mayo post, so what? Our token half-Mexican, Señor Joseph Lopez, helped Malto, Max, Matt Freeman, JW, Rod, Dewayne, Lovell and Mike Mo party down Slabs-style for his favorite Mexican Holiday. Dig Dug captured it all... WATCH THE VIDEO HERE
In other Lovell news, after being stuck behind the lens and computer for 2 years creating Fourteen Deep, he's been hard at work on the other end of the lens creating his next masterpiece, Ryan Lovell's Wonderful Horrible Life. Don't call it a comeback...

Zero & Mystery Event Update
Sorry everyone, for the complete chaos in schedule yesterday for the Zero/Mystery event. Due to off-and-on-again rain throughout the day it was simply impossible to schedule anything so we just had to barge it, and those decided to do the same were stoked cause the park dried up quickly after the team arrived and shredding commenced. Unfortunately due to the fact that the weather situation was so sketchy we'd rescheduled the Mystery video premiere only a few hours earlier to be held at River Roll at 9:30 so we had to stick to that plan even through weather might have held out long enough to still premiere the video at Penn Valley, sorry. Still not quite sure how we pulled that one off but it was so much fun. Again, we know everything was utter chaos and sorry we couldn't really give a good answer to all those on the other end of the phone that was ringing literally non-stop since 11am, as much as we wish to possess powers of predicting the future, it's simply not possible and we did the best we could...miraculously everything worked out. Thanks to those who came out and stuck it out.
