HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

Just wanted to wish everyone happy holidays, and let you know our schedule for the next week. We're closed Dec 25 and 26, opening again on the 27th with 25% off everything in the store (reg priced items). Thursday, Friday and Saturday are regular hours. We'll also be closing a little early on the 31st, and closed on the 1st of January.
Santa sent one of his rejects to give us a hand over the boxing day weekend.

Hope everyone got what they wanted, and we'll see you all soon!

Depend on Zack.

Ok so they aren't Depend's its Tena. And I'm not even sure I have to write a joke about this one. The proof is in the pudding.This is a free sample Zack ordered. Sure it was addressed to him but Jon said to hell with federal law and opened it anyway.
We're here for you either way Zack, bladder problem or not.

Its Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrre!!!!

Thats right dudes and dudettes...we finally got Fully Flared!!!!!!!! Limited Supply for now so act fast...uptown or downtown.

Peter and Dave thinking they're still gonna pass calculus, hahaha.

Speaking of SHREDZ...

CHECK THIS!
Jesse Bowden of WeSC, rocking SHREDZ waaaayyyy back in the day. Cameroon, Africa circa 92'!

A few more Opening Day pics

Some OG Lanks right there boys. I wish I had McDonalds when I was a kid. Katt Williams talks about hanging out with Shaq, thats me and these bastards. Tall-ass motherfuckers, I'm just sayin.

Some weirdo

Natalie, Stephanie, Helenie.

Here's our screenprinter Nigel, trying to shake down Rob for a cheque. Yeah, that beer didn't grow on trees bud. Oh right, you brought some, my bad.

That dude kept wanting to play me at GH. I don't really get high points, but nobody can touch my stage presence. I do high kicks and shit, seriously.

Beer, pizza, tangerines, and...

Colin had a mother of a time with it

He actually called his mother to say Waaaannnhhhhh, my hands!!!!

He got 'er did though.

Work, Uptown style.

Lunch.

Darting.

Pro Skates Uptown is OPEN!

This Slayer poster has been around for a lonnnggg time. It's still got your name on it Gerry, it's safe.

We just started playing darts. Check the groupings, did I mention "just" started playing?

Our first customer, and we forgot to get his name. Thanks bud!

The view from behind the counter. Thats Quinpool road out that door, one minute from the skatepark. We're a 5 minute walk from where Pro Skates spent it's first 10 years...

...so of course SHREDZ is back. 15 years ago this was the hottest shit coming out of Pro Skates, and you just had to have a piece of Shredz gear.

Our couch, some questionable "markings" came free.

Lurkers, Sean and Nate. They definitely approve, but with the glaze they seem to have on, I think they'd sit on anything.

Come by and visit, but bring your own darts. We're very...particular about dart germs. But not couch bacteria apparently.

UPTOWN.

Man legend.

Quinpool madness

4 lanes of traffic (luckily not much), and this guy.

The new foosball,

Vestal Watches

You should stop by the shop and see the new Vestal case we have in. It looks like a big stacked amp...not unlike the stacks you'd see at Sepultura concert...actually I'm also pretty sure that Morrissey's guitarist would have his sound come from something similar. So yeah, Vestal watches, they are dope; kinda rockeresq, kinda fresh, whatever you want it to be.

Where the hell did all the tax go?

So I show up at work this morning, everyones looking around like a bunch of idiots. I ask Zach what's going on. He replies with "We can't find the goddam tax Nachooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!" Naturally I'm thinking these guys are fucked since tax is not a tangible thing. But anyway I go along with it because the guy pays me to agree with him. "Oh...ok...I see....well I guess we'll just have to open without any tax. "Precisely!" chimed Zach. So anyway....you heard it right here. NO TAX UP IN THIS BITCH UNTIL WE SAY OTHERWISE!!!!!!!!!!!! Come cop what you been looking at for months but ya broke ass couldn't afford.

Saturday evening at Proskates.

Saturday was busy as all hell. And we've all been putting in some overtime these days. So, in turn, our fearless leader Zach decided to buy us a 24 for after work.
As you can see the rules weren't that tight about the whole drinking "after" work as Zach handed out beers to the staff during the last hour of work....Here's Jermaine helping some ladies out with some Fuct tee's with an Olands. Yaaaa Diiiiggggg!!!!
Even Helen and former Pro Girl employee Sarah stopped by to have a drink.....there's no more pics after this point....shit got a lil crazy. I heard Jermaine later crashed the Santa parade on Barrington looking for the 1 to Dartmouth.

Sex, Drugs, and Rap Metal!!!

New collabo coming soon. AA and The Nach coming through with some Rap metal. If you aren't turned on by this your lying to yourself.

Uptown?

Jon gets ready to rock. And Roll.
'Mind if I cut in?'
Coming soon.

What are they building?

Sshh, it's a secret.

RAIL JAM TONIGHT!!!!

Last minute is how I roll most of the time...so we'll be at the park at 6:30ish to give away some stuff...C1RCA shoes, and some clothing, so come out and throw yourself down the 8 a few times...you know you want free stuff. Tell your friends.

Arbitrary Action

Ben got hooked up with KITSCH skateboards. God, he's a sick skateboarder. And handsome.

Nothing But The Truth

Nothing But The Truth...new video from Nike SB...We've seen it...we love it. Full parts from Dan Murphy, Stefan Janoski, Danny Supa, Chet Childress, Danny Shimizu, Brian Anderson, Wieger...P-Rod etc. Good. We have it...$25.00

Heres a Trailer.

Jermaine got wood.

Jermaine wants you to have some choice wood for$59. Jermaine loves giving his wood away. Get in line.

Our buddy Mark sells us DC. He was in town to show us the Summer08 stuff. He took us out for supper last night. Here's his side of the table - him and Greg. Lame.Here's my side of the table - me and Jermaine. Hard as nails.
Trying to order, we discovered that Mark is actually possessed by the devil.
Mark is going on about a text message from a girl who wanted this and that. Whatever, it was his boss saying "No Dessert". Dick.
We got a plate of sucky mussels, they were tiny, no juice at the bottom, and covered in way too much garlic.
This is some guacamole cheese hummus grossness that these guys devoured, friggin sickos.
This is where our burgers came. The menu said "Halifax's Best Burger". It was good, but I'm not sure about the best in Halifax, I guess it was the best last night for sure.
No more pics, scroll up for good times. Yeah I know, a bit of a lame blog.
