First this is not my post i copied this from a website i tried to write it in my own but this post sounds better.
We were tipped off to this article that points to a the Reload bag company. It seems these bozos are producing bags that feature the artwork of Jim Phillips, VCJ, Alien Workshop and Neil Blender and giving them NO part of the almost $400 price tag. What?
From Neil: “That bag is a shocker. They’re using all kinds of graphics from companies.Vision? T.Hawk? Weird,wonder what can be done? Wonder if they even sold any bags, terrible looking items.”
So if you run across these and get tempted to spend a grip of cash (we hope you would notice how shitty they are)…don’t. Support the skate companies who support the artists, not biters.

SHUT Team In The Cayman Islands
On Monday, the SHUT team was preparing for a week of skate camp at the Black Pearl Skate Park in the Cayman Islands.
Javier Nunez, Todd Jordan and Luis Tolentino are guest councilorsfor the week and the SHUT ‘Concierge’, Michael Cohen, is playing chaperone.
The Concierge reports that Day 1 & 2 went great, with the SHUT crew helping kids, 7 years of age and up, with tips that range from dropping in, to how to properly ollie over a motorcycle just like Luis.
FuelTV will be on site tomorrow collecting the evidence for the Daily Habit.
Check in with the SHUTNYC site for all the action. If it’s not posted yet, give ‘em time, they’re on vacation.

Grind For Life/Roll Forever
This was taken, word for word, from the DLXSF website because the post sums it up perfectly.
Mikey Taylor and Sean Malto have come together with Thunder and Etnies to raise funds for the Johnny Kicks Cancer foundation. Available now is a very special Thunder color way truck that coincides with the release of the Malto/Mikey designed Etnies RVL/Thunder color release . A portion of the proceeds from the truck and the shoe will go directly to The Johnny Kicks Cancer Organization.
To celebrate the arrival of the Johnny Romano Trucks, Thunder is giving away two pairs of trucks everyday this week.
For details, head over to the DLXSF site.

Hometown Heroes Stops at X Games and will Crown Next Neff AM Skater
Neff teams up with the most legitimate AM skateboard tour in the country and will crown the overall winner of the tour with an official Neff amateur sponsorship. The Finals will take place at X-Games in LA July 30th and 31st. The Hometown Hero tour consists of top level amateur skateboarders who pile in a van and hit the road for months at a time, infiltrating local skate scenes across the country, filming, street-skating, holding contests, and building a living network of skaters across the country. For the top AMs at each stop along the way, some get in the van and go along for the ride, and all are invited to compete at the Hometown Heroes Finals at X Games. Neff also designed the official Hometown Heroes t-shirt that is given away at each skate stop. Who will be this years Hometown Hero and become the next Neff Am Star? Check out weekly coverage of the tour and all stops at Neff’s website.
