PJ Ladd

In case you didn't know already. PJ Ladd is repping DC shoes now. And in case you also didn't know; he's got a big ol contest going on over at The Berrics.

We have the PJ S LX which is one of the most technical skate shoes I have ever seen...And I've seen a lot of skate shoes. Come grab a pair while we still have them.

Go check out the serious website DC has for PJ Here:

Contest Spectacular


Remember last year when we did a limited Proskates/Monark Skateboards deck?? Yeah we did, they were awesome, but they gone now. We need more...the only problem is that we don't have a clue what to do with the graphic. This is where you come in. I have posted a link to download a .zip file with all the necessary logos and the template to design the deck.

You MUST COMPLETE THIS ASSIGNMENT USING ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR...no Photoshop. No rules as to what must be on the graphic, only that if it sucks its not going to win.

Prizes you ask? How about some of the decks that you designed and some other Pro and Monark goods.

Deadline? Ahhhh lets say May 1st, You have 1 month.

May the most creative person win.

Here are the logos

You can email us a .JPEG for a preview, but your final entry has to be an Illustrator file.

email: proskates@gmail.com

Good Luck!

30% Off Hoodies Kid!!


Say What?

Artwork by HANLON!

Looted?

Some smart person visited the shop last night and decided to take the route through the tempered glass front door. He didn't get shit all but a slew of charges and a busted hand. Sucks to be him. Let that be a lesson. Hes lucky the Teeth Beneath is on sabbatical.

New Flicks.

Just an update. We do have the new Home Grown vid, and we have the Final Flare as well. Bored? can't skate? Come get both and stay inside.

Beauty and the Beast Screening.

We had a small screening of the new Girl and Anti-Hero tour video at Uptown. The few people that braved the downpour watched dudes like Tony Trujillo, Rick McCrank, Frank Gerwer, Mike Carroll, Andrew Allen, Alex Olsen, Julien Stranger, Rick Howard, Peabody, Sean Malto, Robbie Russo, Brian Anderson, P-Kid, Max Schaff, Eric Koston, Peter Hewitt...you get the idea. Heres some random snaps from the festivities.

What would a Wednesday night be without Nacho attempting wizard status. He walked to the bar with his cans later that night.

Getting ready...yes thats ODP playing Fifa on PSP, while Ben and Simon get close in the background.

I don't know what the hell Jon Beall was thinking. Hes like 6'3 and only brought a 6-pack. See how this video stokes you?

Young Stuart won the deck. He correctly answered the question which was to name the skaters on Girl and Anti-Hero that have won Thrasher's SOTY. The correct answer being John Cardiel, Mike Carroll, Eric Koston, Brian Anderson and Tony Trujillo.

And Paulson got a t...Yay Ian.

Big Thanks to everyone who came out, and to Ryan Blaxall from Supra for hooking up the prizes. There are some amazing posters of Koston doing a Hurricane fo free up at Uptown.
