I try to support as much as I can as a regular skateboarder. Most of my skate gear is from East Coast companies and I think I am going to pick up the Zoo video today actually. I haven't been to a shop in a week or so, so I missed when they got them in and hope there are some left.<br /><br />I have some cool/interesting Queens spots if you are looking for a change of pace when you come up...elastic backhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11917287927420795584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696948.post-34826465268028089142009-06-23T12:14:43.043-05:002009-06-23T12:14:43.043-05:00eby

I am glad people like you are still out there in the industry, as I would rather see you than some hucker...and I buy a lot of videos, more than I don't. I even have the whole Skate Maps volume, haha.<br /><br />Anyway, keep it up and perhaps we will run into each other someday (saw you at Manny Mania, and I am actually from Florida).<br /><br />Peace,<br />Ebyelastic backhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11917287927420795584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696948.post-50974278836897482852009-06-22T23:09:27.229-05:002009-06-22T23:09:27.229-05:00eby

I actually read all the mags and have seen all the coverage lately, which is expected since the Zoo video just dropped. So a lot of Zoo guys have been in the spotlight as of late. What I was referring to was the lack of coverage over the past couple years. Prior to the last couple month, you have had little coverage...and since I have been a fan of your skating, I actually took notice (which should be a good thing; lots of people fade out without even being noticed). Don't be offended by people WANTING more coverage of you, you should be offended when they are sick of your coverage. Anyway, your opening spread (the white & purple one) and your blunt fakie on that pointy roof in the photo issue of skateboarder were great. I actually ripped them out the other day to add to the archives.<br /><br />I think I know what I am talking about more than most and actually cared enough to give an honest review. Afterall, the mags or any "legit" skate media won't give a candid review since Zoo pays them money in some way. I think it is great that you are in touch what is being said too, it is just too bad you got offended by a positive review.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing your coverage continue past the hype of the Zoo video.

Or check this months photo annual of skateboarder magazine. <br />Sometimes it is better to stay in the loop by getting off your computer, and actually pay attention to something tangable. As far as coverage goes check skateboarding buissness for that as well. U r in a shell. Before u critique something. Know what u r talking about. Nice party pics. <br />4eUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01249485804535997759noreply@blogger.com
