Win etnies shoes & Stalefish!
by: Brink | Monday, August 11, 2008
Our good friend, Sean Mortimer, has a new book out and we are giving a few copies away along with some free etnies shoes!
About Stalefish:
How is professional skateboarding different from, say, professional golfing? More scabs, for one. And is skateboarding actually a sport? In Stalefish, veteran journalist and former sponsored skater Sean Mortimer interviews Rodney Mullen, Steve Olson, Tony Hawk, Stacy Peralta, Jamie Thomas, Lance Mountain, Tommy Guerrero, Mike Vallely, Dave Hackett, Daewon Song, Jim Fitzpatrick, Steve Alba, Kevin Harris, Bob Burnquist and Chris Haslam search of answers, and to discover what drove them and millions of disenfranchised youth to obsession with empty pools, sewer ditches and handrails. This book may not settle the sport versus subculture versus cult debate, but with stories of skate-induced ulcers, skatepark torture, ramp arson, trespassing, the birth punk and more, it captures like other how skateboarding can derail your life in a beautiful way.
Sean Mortimer was a sponsored skateboarder in the late ’80s. He is the former editor of SkateBoarder magazine and the author of HAWK Occupation: Skateboarder with Tony Hawk and The Mutt: How to Skateboard and Not Kill Yourself with Rodney Mullen. He lives in Southern California.
A classic collection of skateboarding lore and legend straight from the heart of icons created it.”
– Juice magazine
“Skateboarding’s formative years and milestones eroded before they were documented. Stalefish captures those stories in a way skateboarders old and new can relate to. A necessary book.”
– TransWorld SKATEboarding
So how do you win? Easy. Best three comments about why you love or hate to read win. First place gets a free pair of etnies shoes and a copy of Stalefish signed by Tony Hawk, Dave Hackett, Kevin Harris, Lance Mountain, Rodney Mullen and Mike Vallely. Second and third place still get a book and shoes, just no autographs. Good luck!
Maloof Cup this Weekend! Find Me & Be VIP!
by: Brink | Sunday, July 6, 2008
Sean Malto, Ronnie Creager, Ryan Sheckler, Rune Glifberg and some of our ladies will be competing in this weekend's Maloof Money Cup. Seriously, this contest is gonna be bonkers. Get there if you can. And if you can't, watch it live on Skateboard.com.
- Step up!
So check this out... not only do we own the entire etnies Festival Village during the Maloof Cup, but we have a little contest to hook you up! However, we don't have much time to do it, so here's the deal:
If you are at Maloof Cup this weekend, you have the chance to win an etnies backpack full of etnies gear AND two Friends & Family VIP passes for exclusive access to some of the spots most people won't be able to get to... including lots of free food from Carls Jr. and perhappppppps the opportunity to meet the pros!
- Hubbas!
What do you have to do?
Easy. Find me. My name is Rob Brink. I'll be at the contest all weekend shooting photos and covering the event.
The first person to rocking at least one piece of etnies gear to find me at the Maloof Cup gets the prizes! Simple concept. Perhaps challenging, but not impossible. Since I'll be working, I might make you run and get me a cup of tea or something like that, but it's sooooo worth it! Consider it on-the-job experience. You can put it on your resume.
Need some clues? I might be holding a big camera or texting people on my Blackberry. Start clickin, readin' & researchin'! Good luck and I'll see you there!
