Thank you to all those who attended the Lincoln premiere of “GO BIG shRED” – we apologize for the audio and video difficulties we had at the Joyo.

We’re selling them for $10 and the first 35 people to buy the DVD will also receive a $5 Next Generation gift card! We also got in some special edition “GO BIG shRED” t-shirts and some nifty gear from Krooked, Spitfire, and more. Check the pictures below to see what else we got in!

Also, don’t forget about the Nebraska Top Shop contest at Bay 198 in Lincoln this Saturday! Come out and support Next G and Secret Spot as we vie for top shop in the state. Guaranteed to be a fun time! Spectators may watch the entire contest for a mere $2.

Check this flyer for additional information. An after hours session will follow at Bay 198 – bring your ticket stub from the premiere to get in for CHEAP!

As many of you may already know, there is finally a new public indoor skatepark in Nebraska! Located in Lincoln’s Westfield Mall on 61st and O St., Bay 198 stands to be one of the best indoor parks we’ve ever had the chance to skate. Our good friends Mike Smith and John Morin saw the need for a new venue to skate indoors and took it upon themselves to build Bay 198 from the bottom-up. They and many others put a lot of grueling work to get this park running, and they couldn’t have done a better job.

Bay 198′s hours, rules, and regulations can be found on their Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bay-198-Skatepark/145591728809278.

A video of Bay 198 during its beginning stages and in its finalized form can be found below. The video features team riders Drew Newlin, Alex Harlow, and several of our close friends. Two new team riders can also be found in the video, but you’ll have to wait for their formal introductions…

In a very sad and unfortunate turn of events, we have learned that team rider Josh Kammerer’s father has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and is expected to have only several months left to live. To help Josh’s family pay for medical costs and prolong his father’s time, our friends at Secret Penguin are hosting a silent auction of donated artwork this Saturday. Please attend for a friend and fellow skateboarder.

We are happy to announce that our friend Jordan Johnson’s 4th video, “GO BIG shRED,” will be premiering at the Dundee Theatre on Sunday, December 5th at exactly 7:30 P.M. You DEFINITELY don’t want to be missing out on this! The video is shot in all HD and features a full part from team rider Drew Newlin, as well as parts from Bruce Abraham, Trey Owens, Cory Foster, Lee Osterholt, Sean Souders, and brand new footage from many more. To hype up the premiere, Jordan put out a second trailer that you can view below. The clip includes cutting room floor footage of both Drew and fellow team rider Alex Harlow.
