Nike SB “Too Cold To Hold” Tour Photo Recap

We had a record breaking turnout last week with Hundreds and Hundreds coming through to get autographs and memorabilia signed (including several, rare old school Lance Mountain decks and even a mint pair of old school Kostons still in the box !!!).

The Southern Hospitality was in full force, so you know we had to treat the Nike SB crew to some world famous Price’s Fried Chicken with all the fixin’s, and even snuck them out to skate a few top secret spots before the signing.

The Nike SB cameras were rolling and capturing the whole crazy event, so hopefully we’ll see lots of Charlotte footage when the official EK-1 SB Eric Koston micro site launches this summer.

A BIG SHOUT OUT to the entire Nike Skateboarding family for bringing the Nike SB “Too Cold to Hold” Tour to Black Sheep and the Queen City.

Also, an EXTRA SPECIAL THANK YOU to Eric Koston, Brad Staba, Lance Mountain, Daryl Angel, Matt Beach, Ishod Wair, Jon Humphries and Jason Hernandez for filming the event, and EVERYONE that came out to rep Charlotte Skateboarding, support the event, and ESPECIALLY for being so patient while waiting outside.

Stay tuned for a video montage of the event, but in the meantime, peep a few photos from the evening.
