M.I.A. Clash of the Crews

Congratulations to MESH Skatepark for winning M.I.A.'s Clash of the Crews Contest. The best coverage of the event so far is on Skatepark of Tampa's website but according to Simon there is plenty of footage yet to be assembled of what sounds like a weekend long rager.

As soon as it hits world wide I will be sure and post it here. In the mean time holler at Simon and tell him to get on it.

USS Tag-Team Game of S.K.A.T.E. December 13th

I have respect for local shops that will throw down serious cash for a contest. Too bad all the shops around here don't make a strong effort to give a little back rather then take, take, take. We all know who they are: they are the shops that sell over priced product and only get involved with throwing an event when they think they can make money off of it somehow...

Anyway USS is planning to give back in the way of $500 to one winning team on December 13th and it sounds like good times, but bring your "A" game because the judging will be serious. Get all the details at their site, www.universitysurfandskate.com

And please remember to support the shops that support you.
