The “Manual Labor” contest went off without a hitch. We had a great turnout from many involved in the core skateboarding community. Congrats to the winner of the contest, our very own Rob Warren!

We also have our August drawing up courtesy of our friends at Vans. The prize package this month consists of a hat, a wallet, a koozie, a shirt, and a pair of jeans, as seen in the picture below. Get on over to our monthly drawing page and complete the form now for your chance to win!

Even after the éS Game of SKATE, we’ve been stocking up plenty of new hardgoods, clothes, backpacks, shoes, and other products for the back to school month of August. Come and get all this new gear while we’re so well stocked!

Prepping for the Game of SKATE on Sunday, we decided to order some more Plan B, Krooked, Real, and Anti-Hero boards. We also stocked up on some special Thunder trucks, including Sean Malto’s pro truck. Here’s a glimpse at our revamped deck selection along with another treat we got in earlier this week:

After a long, long wait, we’ve finally got the new Next G shop decks in! The boards are made from premium American wood comparable to Deluxe (Krooked, Real, Anti-Hero) boards. Sizes include: 7.25″, 7.5″, 7.625″, 7.75″, and 8″. For a better look at the boards, watch Jason’s introduction video that he edited together!

Jason went down to the new South Metro Skatepark on 68th and Harrison St. this past week to check on its progress thus far. He came back with a handful of pictures for you all to take in. Question is, will it be done by July 26th? Only time will tell! Also included in this gallery are photos of our latest Vans shipment. Come get these shoes while they’re hot and in stock!
