Seems Jereme Rogers forgot his smart pills one morning and ended up getting a face tattoo. Here's the riveting footage of a young man ruining his face with a very cheesy symbol.... a freakin' treble clef. C'mon. Guess it guarantees him a life free of white collar jobs.
Nearly a year after Girl turned him Pro, Sean Malto has officially joined the Gatorade team. He joins fellow youngster Chaz Ortiz. What a way to come out of the gates, the kid is so young.... just imagine the dough Big G will flow in. Check out the press release below:
The looong awaited release of the new TK Society, the Terry Kennedy Pro Model, has finally arrived and guess who's got em'? Yep that's right, but don't sleep on these since word is that they have the potential to sell out as fast as the Yeezy's. Just sayin'.... come in now or cry later.
And look what else came in:
The Muska Sky Top has always been a sick shoe in all the previous colorways but I personally feel this one is perfection. You can't go wrong with it... it's killer. I dare ya to come try 'em on and disagree!
These shoes look even more amazing in person... the picture really doesn't do the colors justice. Especially the swan/metallic heel and swoosh. Depending on how the light hits it, the swoosh turns from a solid gold to an iridescent glitter. The materials on this are also pretty trick.... it's got everything from canvas and nylon to white leather and mesh!! You gotta come see 'em in person to believe it.
Apparently DC realized that everyone and their grandma knows how to record and edit footage these days. So, they decided to make a contest to win product for the best self filmed, self edited and self shredded video.
Keep your footage down to two minutes or less and once you are happy with the end product submit it on shredordie.com. First, second and third place winners will receive DC shoes and apparel product prize packages.
Some reeeeeaallly great new longboards just came in.... just in time for the nice weather. Scoot around town on one of these and do your part at reducing your carbon footprint. These are the original alternative energy vehicles.
Say that 3 times fast! And get in here even faster for one of Roxy or Hurley's latest in bathing suit trends. What can I say, these companies just keep making them better and better every year... I'm a real fan of the zebra striped Harmony bikini... especially in Sea Green... love it!

These babies feature a Hyper Verde (green) canvas upper with metallic silver threads weaved throughout to give off a shimmering effect. The green is contrasted by a Rave Pink patent leather Swoosh and laces and a black/grey zebra stripe pattern on the eyelet panels. A white toe section and midsole with a black toe cap finish off the wild look of this Blazer Mid. It might not have an SB label, but if you’re a female fan of the Blazer, these make for an attractive option. Come get some before we are all out!
In the midst of an ever slumping economy, Nike (in collaberation with one of the most famous pop stars on the planet at the moment) is able to release a shoe that has people sleeping outside Foot Lockers across America to be the first to pay $200-300 for the creatures pictured below. Wow. Mark Parker is some kind of magic voodoo genius.
The newest release in the ultra retro Frogskins from Oakley have come in just in time for the sunny days upon us! Aside from an original set of matching arms the glasses also come complete with a second set of contrasting colored arms and the lenses are interchangeable. The latest colorway to drop is Matte Denim and we have 'em.... come check 'em out!
The latest rumors that Eric Koston has left Lakai are confirmed, what's not clear is what is next on his agenda. The first buzz was that Vans would surely be his next stop but a pic taken by Felix Arguilles a few days ago seems to muddle the rumors even more.
The dude is a collector though..... maybe he just digs the shoes??? Whatever the case, I'm sure the K grind will still be solid regardless of what's on his feet.
Mike Tyson's Punch Out was one of the most famous games for Nintendo and it's certainly stood the test of time. DGK has put out a new series of "Lights Out" decks that feature some of the characters that Little Mac had to fight including Von Kaiser, King Hippo, and Tyson himself. Come into the shop and check 'em out for yourself. And for nostalgia's sake check out the video below of some kid giving Tyson the first round TKO.

The Red Bull Manny Mania invite-only Pro is just the beginning. All summer long across 15 stops and all parts of the country, the Red Bull Manny Mania Am Series gives up-and-comers a chance to show off their best manual combos for a chance to win prizes, and the best will move on to compete online for claim of the best manual amateur cross the U.S.A.

Rules: An invite-only contest where 16 pros compete in four-man heats in a jam format. Each skater is given a score reflecting their performance in the entire jam. The top five scores from the entire field will move on to the finals. The final will be the top five skaters in one epic 20 minute jam where they will battle it out until the Manny master is crowned.
Why Manuals: One of the most difficult tricks, a manual requires balance, skill and creativity. With guidelines and manual pads, riders take to the course to see just what two wheeled trickery can get thrown down.

We're pumped to be carrying what is arguably one of the best skate shoes on the planet. Come down to the shop and try a pair or two on. Here's a glance at the first round to come in.
Nike High Pro SB - "Un-Heaven's Gate" Designed by Todd Jordan, Nike SB Skater, in the Fall 2008. They feature a predominantly black upper constructed from leather and suede, along with purple accents on the tongue, lacing tabs, and ankle area.
Nike Blazer SB - Black/White Takes a step back from multiple colors and patent leather. Classic.
Nike Blazer SB Elite - "420" Part of Volume 3 designed by Grant Taylor, features brown leather/ suede design, Rasta flag on tongue as well as red, yellow and green embroidered ants on back. Nike Dunk Mid Premium SB - "Workwear" A combo of suede and canvas on the upper in dull beige, black and blue-grey. Design on insoles has printed image of two crossing wrenches with a ribbon and a lighting bolt along with the letters "XXL"... thus indicating where it got its name.
Nike High SB Premium - "Twin Peaks" Features a mixture of black suede on the lacing area/toe/heel, leather on the toebox, and crackled leather on the side panels with green stitching outlining the entire upper. Named after the 90's tv drama Twin Peaks it has a blue owl placed on the ankle, red material covering the inner lining and zig zag designs on the inner sole that represent key details of the mysterious television show.
Nike Dunk Mid Pro SB - "Clubber Lang" Named after Rocky Balboa's rival (played by Mr T.) in Rocky III. Features a calm white/ ice blue colorway with gold strap inspired by his boxing trunks. Awesome.
Nike Dunk High Premium - "The Boba Fett" Another Star Wars inspired shoe by Nike (others include the Storm Trooper and the custom GMAN Yoda). They feature a leather/ nubuck construction along with bright yellow and red accents. Use the force.
Nike Dunk Low Premium - Black/Atom Red The Dunk SB is modified specifically for skateboarding, featuring a Zoom Air insole for cushioning, padded tongue, and reinforced ollie zones. Special canvas upper with premium leather highlights.
Nike Dunk Low Pro SB - "Strummer Before" Same as above, a great skate shoe. Colorway is inspired by The Clash frontman Joe Strummer's Fender Telecaster as it was when he first bought it with the 3 colored Sunburst finish. Rudie can't fail!

Last weekend enclave was part in New Haven's first rail jam called 'Bills for Spills'. Red Bull, Heal Clothing, Hunter Mountain and enclave all teamed up to bring something new to New Haven and for a good cause! All $10 tickets contributed to HEAL. There was a good turn out plus a lot of people walking to and from dinner that stopped to watch the guys throw down on the set-up. Some were confused, surprised and interested. All in all it was a success! People won a snowboard, others won outerwear and other free goodies. The Red Bull girls were there to make sure everyone had a red bull in their hand and if you were of age, a free red bull cocktail.
