Evan Hecox has a very distinct style to his art work, his attention to detail and ability to capture a moment has always set him apart from other artist. We all love the board graphics he has done for Chocolate in the past. Watch this video to get a little glimpse into where he gets his ideas from as he make a few laptop cases for Incase.
….according to the MoneySense magazine rankings of best places to live in Canada. Burnaby ranked 137 out of 179 cities surveyed. Tons of rain, lazy residents, low average income, etc. Good thing Supra is on the border and technically in Vancouver. Bummer for Steve though, he lives in Burnaby. Sorry Stever.
Chris Roberts came through this month with a fresh Chocolate ad. If you haven’t seen his day in the life video floating around on the internet, click the photo to check it out. Garvy would be proud!
DVS and Matix rider, Torey Pudwill has a big summer ahead of him with his new part dropping in Transworld’s latest video Hallelujah, that’s set to drop sometime in June. Besides the sure to be mind blowing video part, Torey’s first pro model shoe with DVS should be hitting shelves around the same time as the video! Click the photo below to check out the teaser!
We are moving into the season for skate trips and the anticipation is building, luckily Ben There Done That has posted some great pics from their adventures from last summer to hold us over for now.
