I had asked Silvestre to take some photos of his and Nick’s trip down to SoCal so that we could post them on the Amall blog for some new content and he shocked (KAPOW!) my mind with a full on comic book. I don’t know what program he used to create the comic book cells of all of the photos but they look great. I broke his cells into a 3 part series, so this is this is the 1st part and the next 2 parts will come in the next couple of days.
Thank you Silvestre!!! And thank you to everyone else involved!
New from Street Artist comes the Billy O’Neill Skull pro wheel on an all white urethane. The O’Neill pro wheels feature 58mm 88a specs, so it is a good sized wheel for those of you in the market to get some brand new wheels for your skates.

Almost everyone recovered from New Years and the Holiday Madness of December to get out and skate this weekend. California has yet to see any significant amount of rain this winter and this weekend was no different. Not a good winter for anyone doing snow sports up in Tahoe especially our buddy Arjunkel who has a season pass to a resort that is not even close to being opened yet. But for California bladers the weather has worked out quite nicely for weekend sessions.
Here are some screenshots from Tim Boomerweisermaha’s laptop.

We just received the new USD Carbon 3 Black Boot’s today at are warehouse, just in time for the weekend. We will have complete setups available next week, but right now for those of you who just want the boot you can order these right now.
Just a heads up for any of you who have been looking for Valo Lights but could not find your size available (especially the popular sizes like 8 and 9). We just got most of the sizes back in stock for the original Valo Jon Julio Light skates and the Valo Light’s in the new black/wine color scheme.
Why are the Valo Lights a good skate to roll on?
Carbon Fiber shell = Lighter (hence the name)
A lighter skate = less effort to jump all day long and a nice light feeling.
Valo designed them to have a more true to size fit and feel.
We just received a bunch of new clothing from Create Originals to start 2012 off right. They have a new painters jacket, a bunch of new tee’s including another v-neck and a couple of hoodies. A majority of it is in black, which has always been my favorite color, so keep it bad guy this year and pick up some of the new Create Originals gear.
Nolte is taking 2012 seriously… Man. Click to enlarge.

Tim took a pair of the Dre Powell 2 skates recently and decided to put together this fall themed edit. Be sure to let him know what you thought of the video in the comments below. Tim’s gonna be hitting F5 on this mofo every 3-7 seconds on some 1995 chat room tip, so quit wastin’ precious postin’ time and leave a f’n comment already!
Starting to look a lot more like Christmas round these parts as of late… Especially since we sent good ol’ St. Nick to the park to do-do our dirty work. Here he can be seen poaching a freshly pre-trimmed tree and not looking suspicious at all. Of course he wouldn’t have been able to do this with out his cutting edge NEW Psyko SAW AXE MURDERER Flannel that gave him the power of the late, great Paul Bunion. Nick brought the tree to us and we traded him several hundred pancakes because I think thats what lumber jacks eat. That’s why they are called flap jacks, right? Can someone confirm this for me? No? Fine. F@#$!
You like the Xsjado Jeff Stockwell skates? Kyle Nolte likes Xsjado Jeff Stockwell skates too! Klye Jr. was out the game for a couple months, mostly due to him relinquishing ‘the family pants’. He was subsequently locked down by his ‘woman’ and was fibbing injuries so he didn’t have to skate with us. TISK-TISK. He even went as far to faking a doctors note that was obviously scribbled on the back side of a Burger King receipt. Which, by the way was just recently voted the worst fast food restaurant on the MF’n planet. Don’t take my word for it ask anyone, “Hey, what do you think is the worst fast food restaurant?” It’s like one of those crazy mind melting math games that always ends up kicking you in the ass with the same number - Without fail everyone ALWAYS says Burger King - OH and lol, Paco Ass Dre swore over his terrible onion bomb habit that it was a UK based food chain (dude eats onions like their freaking apples). HAHA! The King? You fool! I know Burger president or Burger democracy would have been a little more obvious, but dude - DO THEY EVEN EAT BURGERS IN THE UK!?!? Do they get served with the P.Diddy cups? Someone please tell me. Anyways, Paco - What made you think the UK? Why not Tonga? Or Monaco? Let me guess, the Lion King also from the UK? NO. HE WAS NOT. How about Hershey Sundae pies tho? I dunno, but those are still okay in my book.
WHAT YOU GOT ON MY PIE, HOMIE?
But I must digress…This post was about Nolte and his new skates. We had a lot of fun making this edit, and Nolte is skating Xsjado’s now for those of you who cannot accept him on another set of blades, I’ve got just the tickey for yall.
Justin (theee JH) has been developing his skills at running down stairs while filming with his Glidecam to get some really cool shots. This definitely takes some practice so that you actually keep the skater in the shot while at the same time making sure that you don’t bail down the stairs yourself and hulk all of your filming equipment, especially the new camera you might be hoping to get this Christmas.
In this picture, Justin is catching Nick Lindsey on the first stair set of his two rail line where Justin was sometimes following Nick down the 2nd stair set and sometimes running along an upper walkway to vary the shot. It is actually really fun to watch the whole process and it always puts a smile on anyone’s face who has never seen Justin hustling down stairs with his Glidecam in hand.

We just received the new Ground Control Team DVD and we’re about to leave the shop right now to watch it at JH’s house. I’m excited to see it but I think Dre can barely even wait as he already left to get a few games of Battlefield 3 in before we all get there to view the video. Hopefully he is preparing food and drinks as I type…
UPDATE AFTER WATCHING: THE VIDEO WAS AWESOME, INCREDIBLE SECTIONS, YOU DEFINITELY WANT TO PICK UP A COPY OF THIS DVD!
