This year has been so hectic that I am looking forward to January. We have been getting hit up here with people asking,"So like, when is your next event?" I guess after 20 events during 2009 and 3 of them being blockbuster demos and a bunch of insane contests kids just expect you to be banging out the events every other week. So we thought we would do a Game of SKATE, just like we did last year around the late January/ early February spot to kick off the new year. The flyer gets me so stoked on the event, I thought it was a really good contest. Janine was telling me,"It isn't like we are graphic artists," and I said,"that's no excuse." So this is what we came up with and I think it is one of our best flyers yet. It's no Give Up flyer, but it does stike a cord. The contrast between today's heavy hitters and 1989's are so crazy. Back then if you didn't live near a vert ramp, you weren't really skateboarding according to the industry. Today if you are, you have to wait until issue #71 to get the cover of a new skateboard magazine. In fact, all the heavy hitters today crush the flat, the nothing, the needing no one to do what they do. We hope to see you all out to our "Shut Up and Game of SKATE" contest on 01.31.10...it only took us 20 years to get here, or nowhere.
