Sneak Peek: New P-Rod2 Colorway

We got this pic of Danny Supa at Red Bull's Manny Mania in Venice Beach, CA. He was wearing some new P-Rod2's that were grey and light grey with a patent leather electric blue swoosh. These are going to be super hot sellers when they come out for sure.

Paul Rodriguez X Mountain Dew Green Label Art Launch Party

A couple weeks ago we were lucky enough to be invited to Mountain Dew's Green Label Art Launch Party. Green Label is a series of twelve different 16oz. aluminum bottles by Mountain Dew with art by some pretty tight heads. This party celebrated the release of pro skateboarders Paul Rodriguez and Chris Pastras' collabo can. Shoe customizer Methamphibian also has an aluminum bottle as part of this series. Anyways, the party was off the charts with gourmet appetizers, free booze, and plenty of ladies. Check the pics:

New Corey Sheppard Boards from Sub-Genus

Apparently, Sub-Genus is a new board company from Jason Masse and the artist known as Foof. They have recruited a pretty high-end team for being such a small company. The team includes Jason, Corey, Paul Otvos and even Gershon Mosley.
