Fine Lines...

This has been a very long overdue post, but I really took it into great thinking that I would share this very dream of mine on my special day. When I turned 21 (actually 30) last year, I tried to check my list of the things I wanted to achieve in my life. A lot of it were done, nothing really crazy. Just simple dumb things a young kid would love to do and project his life upon. One thing I wasn't able to manage was to get inked by nonetheless Mister Cartoon. 

I have been trying to get  booking  since 3 years ago, but never had a chance to get one. It was getting very depressing since I can only go to LA for a certain amount of time in every year. It was also getting old as I tell people that are close to me that I wasn't able to make it every year. It freak'n dreaded me. Some time July last year (2012) I hit up HUNTER to get a schedule for Toon, but disappointedly got a reply that the dates I  was looking at won't be possible. So I told him "I'll be in LA this week, just incase Toon will have a slot in anytime of the day or night I would love to rush over wherever he's at..". HUNTER politely replied, "OK, we'll see how it goes...". 

I just really went to myself, "Shiiiiii.... this ain't happening ever..."

Sometimes there are just some things that miraculously take it upon itself to make things just happen. 2nd day in LA, hangin' out at RIF LA, my homeboy Joseph a.k.a RADYO! clothing told me to turn around, and there you go.... LEGENDARY MISTER CARTOON was droppn' in gettin' some new J's... Then it was history.

Got invited, and here's how it went down.

Bright Lights.

Both shoes I don't have...

Artworks and tiff...

Portfolio...

Client List...

Estevan Oriol...

Outlines...

Candyland... To add it up, he had a garage with all of his crazy ass cars...

Frozen delight...

Truckn'...

Lo Lo's... Do you see them chromed out axle's...?

Four hours after, my eye's we're about to shut out... Prolly one of the best thing that ever happen to me.



Sorry, If I haven't elaborated on things... I really just wanna give Toon the outmost privacy of what he shared with me (the shop, things we talked about, all the things he showed me). I think for you guys have the full end of things, do try to hit up HUNTER for a booking. Asst@mistercartoon.com

He gave me some parting gifts before I went home, The best care detailing kits ever.

To sum things up, It was an ICONIC experience one man can ever have. 

At least for me it is.

"SKATE PARK of TAMPA" DUNK RELEASE...

Skate Industry Icon "SKATE PARK of TAMPA" celebrates it's 20 years and weLegendary got dibs on the celebration....!



"Nike SB Lance Mountain SPot Dunk


March 2013 represents an important milestone in skateboarding as the beloved Skatepark of Tampa celebrates 20 years of anarchic excellence. Against near-impossible odds in a subculture fueled by constant change, Brian Schaeffer and crew’s special brand of DIY-spirit has supplied a higher standard of service dedicated to the advancement of skateboarding since 1993. With a steadfast commitment to their local scene in addition to establishing one of the world’s premiere showcases for amateur and professional skateboarding, the importance and influence of the grassroots SPoT is undeniable.  To mark this special occasion, Nike SB has teamed up with skateboarding legend and team rider Lance Mountain to design a special limited edition Dunk Low SB colorway in honor of Tampa’s finest.

Coming straight out the moat, this 20 SPoT is a solid black and cannon premium construction, all tied together with a metallic platinum swoosh to commemorate the park’s special day. Already a solid foundation, what really sets this release off is the finely detailed print crawling over this colorway’s entire upper. Such a subtle yet unique feature, closer examination of the pattern actually reveals it to be Lance Mountain’s signature character and alter-ego, the Doughboy. Pushing, cruising, sweeping and filming, the print symbolizes the worker bees whose efforts all come together to make an enterprise work. The Doughboy represents skateboarding at its most fun-loving and DIY core, the very thing SPoT has been championing for the last two decades. So it should come as no surprise to see Dough resting comfortably inside on customized celebratory insoles wearing the trademark Skatepark of Tampa crown. Lance specially designed the graphic for SPoT’s 20-Year anniversary and its inclusion here  represents the cherry on top of a finely executed design.

A long-time fan of the SPoT philosophy, Lance sees what the crew continues to provide for skateboarding as a vital necessity. “You need contests just as much as videos to spotlight and push skateboarding’s limits. Seeing someone skate live and in-person is a totally different experience than watching them on videos and just as important. Plus, healthy competition promotes different styles and ideas to keep skateboarding creative and the Skatepark of Tampa has done just that.”

As title sponsor of the Tampa Am and Tampa Pro contests, Nike SB is honored to be part of the SPoT tradition. We recognize the effort and dedication this tight-knit crew has given towards maintaining such an important voice within the evolution of skateboarding and are proud to be collaborating with them on this historic occasion. The limited-edition 20th Anniversary Skatepark of Tampa Dunk Low SB is set to hit stores this month, and be sure to catch Nike Skateboarding’s live Tampa Pro webcast on Skateparkoftampa.com starting March 22nd.

HUF...

I posted this very late, and that's the truth.
A couple of months back, I had the opportunity to visit HUF and see what things we can do together.
It's nice that our homeboy JULO from UNSCHLD who used to carry the brand gave way for us to continue pushing it here in the PI.

So downtown LA, GPS, to a left and found the warehouse. Honestly I was afraid to leave my sister's soccer mom van at the street. But hey 911 is a quick dial away.
Came into the warehouse, greeted by the nice peeps packing the boxes.
I felt at home.

One day we will have a warehouse like this... Boxes upon boxes they go.

Stickers and Pepper...

Sweets will be my main man on this one... Did you see that map beside him? That's a start of worldwide domination.

Some very inspiring work on the walls...

Time to shop. 

Memba this one...? Yup the Busenitz ledge...

WATCH...!

Mad orders...

Boss man Keith Hufnagel packin'... the way it should be. If them owners or CEO's just layn' at the office drinkn coffee and checkn facebook from 9-5... They sure are missing something.

Had some weird questions for Sweets and Keith, but they pointed it out that... "We are upto more bigger things".

A few months after this picture and us doing a few pre-orders already, I truly believe that HUF will be as solid as it was and is.

Be excited people we got some Mad s**t coming your way...
