Big News

Lakai officially announced that Eric Koston has joined their team. Be on the lookout for what could be one of the greatest skateboard videos ever made: Lakai’s “Fully Flared”, which drops sometime this year. Woah.
In more important news, C-Mac is now jobless. Those bastards at south Esso decided to lay him off today, which also happens to be his 26th birthday. You’ve gotta love corporations. Be on the lookout for what could be one of the greatest documentaries ever made: OCD’s “White Laces, Please.”, which drops sometime this century. Really though, be on the lookout for C-Mac behind the counter at Tiki. Happy birthday C-MAC!
