Grant's - Damn good Stuff!







Our good friends over at Grant's Golden Brand Pomade make some of the BEST water-based pomade - ever. They are a small independent brand that focuses only on putting quality and style first. We have watched their brand grow this past year and they have done a supreme job at attracting the right consumer. From the suit and tie Wall Street/clean cut gentleman, slicked back vintage car & chopper guy AND to the skateboarder who knows how to roll with style Grant's has got you covered. These gents & grinders featured in the pics SUPPORT Grant's Golden Brand, you should TOO (if you have hair). Our friends Cabbie to J.Jessee use the pomade so, stop on by their web and buy a tin or two. We use the pomade daily.

Shaka with Style

support stance support


our old old friend ryan kingman from the south side of oahu, hi. sent over a "box of sox" from his new brand: STANCE. most of you know ryan from his decade plus involvement with element, the rhps' history with kingman harkens back to: animal chin wallows missions, grommet grinds, canfor masonite mania, palolo ramp rippin', moke awareness and pre-adolescent beer sneaks. he was there for some of our first pool missions - we go back.

ryan is now heading up the marketing force for stance along with a great crew of visionaries. along for the ride is our old friends j. jessee & duane peters endorsing the brand. from the basic to the avant garde - stance fits nice and ranks high on the comfy meter. plus they dry pools - key feature for us.

all the best to r.k. and his new ventures. no go buy some stance socks bra!

west side respect


history.
hawaii sent the ground swell of style and raw energy to spark the dogtown movement in the mid 70's. you know the story: larry bert revert, dane, louis, buttons, etc. not only did they break down doors like rabbit bartholomew, they created an underground uprise. following their lead the cats of dogtown chopped their planks and attacked the water and concrete with their custom weapons.

the hawaii / d.t. connection runs generations deep. there was and still is a mutual respect for one another. two communities who shared the same radical lifestyle. in both communities if you didn't have a proper intro, you sat on the sidelines and watched. the venice homies had our red carpet and vice versa. we were invited to ride with them in the best pools of west los, paddle out at the breakwater and they were given the same love. locals respecting locals, like i said - a generations deep connection.

in the mid 80's, another chapter of the venice / d.t. brotherhood arose: the infamous MSA - "Mexican Surf & Skate Association." the roster included a "who's who" of the local venice o.g. rippers and upcoming talent. ALL members were proud mexican american rippers. headed by our old & dear friends: Block (skate president) and Juandie (surf president). the boys ruled the lineup at the breakwater and held court at the notorious vsa ramp and of course the legendary shredding at the venice pavilion & boardwalk. the MSA movement lives on today at the new venice skatepark and in the lineup at the breakwater. the next generation is on the uprise. srf-skt relate.

respects to the MSA, our brothers of the board.
