Krooked!

More Fall Krooked boards are in stock, including the Eric Koston guest board! This bad boy is limited to 600 and as you know, wont be around for long. Eric is one of the most amazing skaters ever and Krooked is proud to give him a guest board. New Zip Zingers are here! Check out the rad ice cream themed graphics and pick them up before they melt...ok, I admit, that was a bit corny. Brad Cromer's new Krooked ad is so sick!! That's the first trick I've seen at that spot in a while, he definitely killed it that day. Back 5-0'd the whole thing and then did the lipslide. Im still stoked on his Welcome to Krooked video from over a year ago, probably because it has 'this must be the place' in it...but whatever, Brad rips. Tons of new Fall09 Product is in stock from all brands- including Spitfire bearings, Krooked Shades, AH/Lance Mountain Boards, and Justin Brock's first PRO boards from REAL!

REAL Xtreme Series is in!

Lance Mountain teams up with Anti Hero


Lance Mountian, easily one of the best skaters of all time, teamed up with the good dudes here at AH and created the Skull Series decks for the new Anti-Hero catalog.

They are based on his original art for Suicidal Tendencies from back in the day (see pic on left). So rad, this series is going to be a classic...just look at the Cardiel, Gerwer, Trujillo...all of em!

THE DH 2.1 LIMITED EDITION RIDE IS REVEALED


September 15, 2009 - Ride Snowboards releases the first of three Artist Series boards, the DH 2.1, featuring artwork from the one and only Michael J. Zepeda III. The freestyle DH 2.1 captures Michael's unparalleled signature style and elements that make it easy to see how he has become the noteworthy artist he is today. Originally from Carlsbad, California, Zepeda went to the Academy of Fine Arts University in San Francisco and currently works and lives in Costa Mesa, CA.



Mike Z absorbs the diversity of his surroundings and regurgitates them in visual explosion of boiling energy with sawing dialogues that vibrate with a razor-edge accuracy...oh, and he can draw pretty good too. Best known for his intricacy, meticulous attention to detail and remarkable poster art, Ride couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

The DH2.1 will hit select stores October 1st and availability is limited, so get one before it’s too late!

Each DH2 board in the series features distinctive work from influential artists and include Ride's most innovative board technologies. Watch the countdown to see boards revealed, timed to drop 15 days prior to arrival at retail stores. Look for the DH 2.2 reveal on October 15th, available in stores November 1st, and the DH 2.3 reveal on November 15th, available in stores December 1st. Keep your eyes on the countdown at www.ridesnowboards.com/dh2, and be sure to check out the artist video, bio and full product details.

The DH2 series features Ride's new LowRize™ rocker profile with LowRize™ specific sidecut, built to lock in landings and eliminate hook. This twin also combines our exclusive Membrain™ top sheet, Pop Stixs™ and 85A Slimewalls® for a one of kind freestyle Ride ideal for going big.

Something Evil This Way Rolls..

Lizard King isn't quite your run of the mill guy, so when it came time to create his signature Spitfire F1 Wheel, Spitfire worked really hard to come up with something that really helps make this a true signature Lizard wheel....

Introducing (the first ever) glow in the dark Spitfire F1 wheel!! This thing really, really glows. We've been playing around with the samples and I'm honestly impressed at how much this thing works. Available now in 52 and 54mm!

2009 Skate & Create: C1RCA Broken Dreams

Intro by Dennet Oyanguren, C1RCA Creative Director

The Broken Dreams concept was to put together a short film about skateboarding achieving a few different things. One was to put skateboarding and the viewer in a different environment than normal. The other was to have the team put together obstacles that they would like to see and session out in the real streets, that are good for tricks, as well as challenging and interesting to look at; design them, build them, and put those obstacles in our unique setting. Then finally, telling a story rather than just showing tricks going down, adding a storyline and capturing a feeling, and putting the viewer in a moment in time.

The story we tell in Broken Dreams is a story about a guy who is having a session with his krüe. As the night grew later and darker, he started to get very tired. He was not sure if he wanted to stay or go. He decided to leave the session at around four in the morning. As he's driving, he began to fall asleep at the wheel. As he dozed off nothing seemed to make any sense, "Am I still driving? Am I still at the session? Have I crashed?" These are his thoughts in his dream state. To achieve this concept and to capture this dark "Broken Dream," we worked strong as a team bringing all of our thoughts together. Creative, filming, photography, lighting, props, obstacles, beer and raw skateboarding were the tools we used to get this piece done.

C1RCA Teamriders: MVP Peter Ramondetta, Sierra Fellers, Scott Decenzo, Tony Tave, Ryan Gallant, Walker Ryan.
Video Director Lee DuPont
Art Director Dennet Oyanguren

Worrest, Salazar, Romero...Spitfire Signature Wheels!

Spitfire Signature wheels from-

Bobby Worrest
- You've all seen his part from Right Foot Forward and the classic
videos that Rory Sheridan did (www.29films.com) so ride what he rides, 52/53mm classic shape wheels!

Omar Salazar- Mindfield! He rides 49mm wheels, no joke...I have no idea how he pulls off what he does on such small wheels, maybe he knows something I dont. Either way, his signature wheel is sick and is flying out of here.

Leo Romero- Grinds up rails. That's all I have to say.
