Remember a few months ago Ryan Sheckler had the cover of The Skateboard Mag with a massive kickflip? Well it turns out that he wasn't the only guy on the team to huck himself over that gap, Colin has been sitting on this photo of a Christ air for a few months now. He didn't want to take away from Sheckler's kickflip so we kept it hidden for a few.

Paul Rodriguez keeps it going and wins the Cleveland stop of the Dew Tour over the weekend. Seems like he's on a bit of a roll no? Congratulations Paul, maybe the next team dinner should be on you?
Check a little over to left on the front page to find a video recap of Jereme, Ryan and Paul's weekend at the Maloof Cup.
With everything going on this weekend we kind of missed filming the am contest. Sorry Scott, here are a couple of the things we did manage to get.

Last night's battle on the street course of the Maloof Money Cup was an intense affair. When the dust settled it ended with Jereme Rogers taking 6th place, Ryan Sheckler landed in 4th and Paul Rodriguez (pictured here celebrating with his mom, Colin and his girlfriend Rainbow Alexander) walked away with the big check in first place. Congratulations to all our guys. Check back in a few days for a video recap of the weekend's events.

The am contest at the Maloof Money Cup in Orange County wrapped up yesterday. Congratulations go out to Scott Decenzo who found himself in second place. Nice work.

Bad news for Sheckler, Ryan's frequently problematic elbow finally gave out on him and broke. He still intends to skate in this weekend's Mallof Money Cup anyway. To read all about it check the article at Skateboard.com

We have teamed up with Mumble Magazine to give those who have never seen the questionable video a chance to check it out. Stop by mumblemagazine.com and see what went down over 16 years ago.

Built To Shred - The Eco-Friendly Edition
On Wednesday we headed up to Paul Schmitt's house in Orange County to drop in on the filming of an episode of Fuel TV's Built To Shred. This particular episode was a collaboration with Paul's CreateAskate.org program. The main theme of the show was that all the power used to build everything was provided via solar collectors. On top of that they pressed boards using eco-friendly materials such as bamboo and hemp which were then used to skate the obstacles. Watch for the episode sometime this fall. In the meantime click the link below to see a few photos or the video to watch our own Ryan Sheckler participating in the CreateAskate.org

While you are making your way around the interweb today stop by Skateboard.com to check an interview with Paul Rodriguez.

The first stop of this year's Dew Tour went down in Baltimore over the weekend. Ryan Sheckler took first in the Panasonic Cup with Paul Rodriguez following in 2nd, upstart Chaz Ortiz rounded out 3rd place.
David Stuck is a young photog from Baltimore and was nice enough to send us a few photos from the contest.
Danny Way finds himself on the cover of this months Transworld Skateboarding. 360 flip over the mega ramp gap, pick up the mag for the sequence proof as well an article featuring Danny's thoughts on the state of vert skating.

Demo Day
Friday had us out in Tsawwassen for the final demo of the Canadian tour. The guys rolled up to an absolutely massive turnout, the park is about 40 minutes outside of downtown Vancouver yet around 1200 people managed to find their way to the park. The demo went off very well, everyone skated for about two hours running through about every part of the park. Check back in a few weeks for a video of the days events. For now check a photo recap.

Canada
We've been a little slow on the updates but we are up in Canada and we've been in the streets every day. With the exception of Pat Duffy and Danny Way who had other obligations we have the whole team up here. Take a look at a few shots from a day that ended with a signing and then everyone making their way to a restaurant to watch game four of the Lakers/Celtics showdown.
