Showcase showdown. Check out all the photos from the Aberdeen Skate Fest Tour last weekend. We have been doing this event out in Aberdeen, WA for about 6 years. It's always a great time and we look forward to it every year. Aberdeen is a smaller city out by the coast and it's where Kurt Cobain is from. It's a different town with a unique feel to it. The skatepark is fun too. This year we also made a stop in Lacey, WA for a demo at the Rainer Vista Skatepark. I and I Board Shop from Olympia really hooked it up for us here. I think a direct quote from Marshall is "We look forward to the Aberdeen skate fest tour 364 days of the year". Only about 356 until next years event. Hope to see you there.

Man there is so much metal on this site lately and no Priest. There's something seriously wrong with that. Seattle was first on the list for their North America tour. I poached a pretty epic photo. -JA

The City of Bellevue is embarking on a master plan for a new community park in Eastgate, which as of yet does not include a skatepark. Now is the time for people to spend a few minutes go to the link below and complete the survey.
Survey
Please forward this link to Bellevue residents you may know and to new boards where skaters will see it. If nothing is said nothing will be done. There will also be meetings.

TJ over at Actual Pain Clothing really helped us out on some of the text for the past Metal Series. Your should have a look at the site and peep the new line, it's great. There is also a Mix Tape you can easily download from the site.
Actual Pain Site
We also did a board together and it came out so good. Contact Actual Pain for purchase or Steve at Manik to see if we have any left. We only had a handfull and I don't know where we are sitting. I know it's the illest board I've ridden in some time.

High Hair, Low Expectations! When Manik first stumbled upon the Hair Spray image we got the idea to do a colab with NJ Skate Shop in New Jersey. After the release of the High Hair Nike Dunk they kinda have the rights. We did the special Blue colorway Exclusively for NJ and a couple friends. Unfortunatly, we missed Bon Jovi's March 2nd birthday release this year, but I'm sure it's hot enough in Sayreville to get the job done. I've also heard that in the 80's New Jersey sold 3 times the amount of Aqua Net as any other state. Oh, that is such a great time to look back on. This metal series is still going strong. I updated all the photos of the NJ Colab and some new photos of the Iron Maiden show this June. Yes, it was that epic. Thanks Chris at NJ for making this colab a reality.
