There are a couple big contests happening tomorrow. Luck for all of you, they’re on opposite sides of the country so you don’t really need to choose which one to go to….unless you have a private jet.

This Saturday at the Hastings Bowl skatepark in Vancouver, BC in the “Battle at Hastings” contest which is offering up over $4000 in cash and prizes. This one is sponsored by Fourstar, Girl and Royal so you know the prizes will be awesome!! Hit up Kevin at Boulevard Skateshop for more info or go to the Facebook page for the event.

The other contest is Palm Isle’s “FestiSkate”. This one is offering up great prizes from Girl, Lakai, Chocolate and Fourstar. Get down to this contest to win some more great prizes!!

The Creators Project did a cool video interview with Andy Mueller. They go over some of his past and current projects, what he does at Girl, and a bunch of other fun facts.

Check it out. And while you’re at it, check out Andy’s clothing line The Quiet Life. It’s amazing!!!

We just got to newest shipment of Stacks decks in. These will be hitting stores asap! Go get yours.

It looks like Alex Olson has joined the blogging world too. There definitely isn’t a theme to it which kind of makes it more interesting than a lot of other blogs.

There’s some skateboarding, some girls he wants to sleep with, some artsy stuff. Check it out….
