Band of Horses Skate Vid Contest

Man, I still get a little teary eyed watching Guy Mariano skating to Band of Horses “The Funeral” in Fully Flared…

Well, Creighton Barrett from Band of Horses hit us up personally to ask us to help get the word out about a rad contest they are throwing over on their Facebook Page.

Creighton is from the South, so he wants to give back and make sure that the Southern Skate Scene is properly represented. Here’s the lowdown, just make a video of your best skate footage featuring one of the songs from the new BOH album, Infinite Arms, and you could win:

-Airfare and hotel for two to Los Angeles
-Tickets to see BOH at The Greek Theater
-A trip to Girl Skateboard’s private skate park to skate with Creighton Barrett of BOH
-A Band of Horses Girl Skate Deck
-A pair of Band of Horses Custom Lakai Shoes
-Priceless memories…

Band of Horses will be judging the entries. This could be your chance, but better hurry because the contest ends September 6th!

Kyle Berard Gets Rocked

One of my all favorite skateboarders (and party dudes), Kyle Berard is getting double rocked this week over on the Thrasher Magazine site. Kyle is a Southeast ripper that has been holding it down for years. Thrasher site says it best, “Some guys approach skating differently when they’re filming, on tour, or cruising their local park. This clip here shows how Kyle skates daily.” Check the footage HERE.

The Berrics: Black Sheep Field Ops

Steve Berra and the Berrics crew came through town and paid us a visit a few weeks back. Steve is an amazing skateboarder and always involved in something new and exciting. It was a real honor to show them around our home town, catch up a bit, and hear about some recent projects.

They also filmed a Field Ops profile on Black Sheep that day and it just got posted up over on the Berrics– you can watch it below. A big thanks to Steve Berra for taking some time out of his busy schedule to come through and also to Daniel Duarte for all the hard work filming and editing the segment– we really appreciate all the support.
