OCskateboarding.com:
Twentynine Palms, CA has asked us to provide a skateboard demo and judging of their local skateboard competition! The demo and competition will be held during the city’s 72nd Annual Pioneer Days festival.

The event runs 3 days but we will be there Saturday, October 18th with some of the southland’s finest!

OCSkateboarding will be bringing several skaters to the event, including Apryl Woodcock, Anthony Johnson, 12 yr old Allysha Bergado, 13 yr old Austin Poynter and our very own Mandy Esch!

You can catch the skateboarders from 2pm to 4pm on Saturday, and our booth will be setup all day. Stop in and visit us! We will have merchandise from several of our vendors and you can meet some of the skateboarders.

I know it is a long trip for this type of event, but it should turn out to be a fun day trip and besides, doesn’t everybody love a festival?

Get RAD, B RAD, U R RAD, RAD enough to Roll!

ASEC presents RAD

Here is a great one for you; this Saturday October 11th ASEC is launching our inaugural “RAD” (Roll Anything Day). This is a holiday dedicated to leaving behind cars, motorcycles, busses or whatever gas guzzling, veggie oil burning, natural gas farting device you or your parents are using and going out on the town Rolling your Skateboard, Bike or what ever form of “Non-Motorized Transportation” you choose. Go out and explore your city, Parks or Mountains, hang out with your friends and family or go see how many spots you can hit or shops you can check out in a day.

Break a sweat, work up an appetite and Roll to any Chipotle in California between 11-3PM and get a FREE Burrito-FREE Burrito-FREE Burrito-FREE! If you have never checked out Chipotle before you need to, they make the tastiest Mexican Food I have ever had, no joke just ask Danny Way, Bob Burnquist or anyone else who grubs there all of the time (they pay, they are not sponsored). They are the most natural and environmentally responsible fast food chain in America and they use naturally raised chicken & pork, locally sourced & organic veggies and really care about the Planet. Oh Yeah, they are not owned by McDonalds (that is another story, they used to be an investor but have nothing to do with them now, it was a dream situation). So go out & Roll your butt to Chipotle to get a Free Burrito or Roll to your friend’s house to hang out, it doesn’t matter where you go, just Roll.

Head to AESC to read more about RAD and all of the other RAD stuff we got goin on, Enjoy the Roll!

A couple weekends ago, Team rider Shelby Kantar cruised out to Redondo Beach, CA for The 13th Annual Dive n’ Surf Lobster Festival. Shelby and the rest of the Body Glove team, including Daniel Doud, Robby Meistrel, Aaron Aubrey and Jeff McKee put on a demo for the crowd.

Shelby Kantar

Here is a little recap from www.alliancewake.com:
“This was the first time that Body Glove has been involved so they wanted to make sure that all of the visitors took notice, and what better way to do that than to send a couple of their wakeboarders flying off of kickers and into fixed metal poles that are planted right in the landing zone of the lagoon? Exactly what Aaron Aubrey decided to do after landing a perfect wrapped frontside stalefish 5. Daniel Doud, Shelby Kantar and Robby Meistrel were the brains behind the operation and invited Aaron Aubrey and myself out to play along. The festival was three days long with killer beach bands, fresh lobster, Body Glove fashion shows and of course the wakeboard spectacle…Team Dantar constructed a 35 foot flat bar and a kicker for us to entertain the crowd with and to be honest my hands are still soaked in butter from slapping high fives with so many lobster consuming fanatics (they were fans of the show is what I am trying to say). Danny Evans even came out to MC the event. I even got the chance to go off the kicker wearing a lobster suit and short skis to finish the show. A water skiing lobster is pretty rare, so I’m like 97 percent sure it’ll probably end up in the Guiness book.” - Jeff McKee

Shelby just touched down in Singapore to shred with riders from 14 different countries this weekend at the Wakeboard World Cup. Good luck Shelby!

Last month, Osiris Girls donated some product to Florida skater Morgan Mcdole to help with some local events she was helping to put on. Check out her recap and pics:

“125 kids signed up to skate the Skaters for Christ event, held at the South Daytona Christian Church. The whole neighborhood must have come out of the wood-works for this one. Speaking of woodwork, DK Ramps was also out there to help build the course on schedule, as well as- get this- make sure there was something for the girls as well!

Well, Osiris Girls took the initiative by sending shirts ahead. So, Dug Ketterman decided for the gals who challenged their skateboarding abilities, or demonstrated a stupid human act, were able to get a t-shirt. To his surprise, young old, and everyone in between had a stupid human trick to show off.”

Morgan is also putting together two part event called “The Neighborhood Tour.” It will be a laid back, jam style event where the focus is to skate and have fun. The first stop is this Sunday, Oct. 12th in South Daytona, FL. Head to www.dkramps.com for all the details.
