After having their way with our shipment for the last 3 weeks US Borders and Customs released our order and a bunch of new stuff showed up today.

We finally got in our Ledge Wax, it took us a long time to develop the formula for the wax but it was worth it since it works great (and smells pretty damn good also..... coconut).

We got in some more clothing for spring including the Fresh Short Sleeve Button Down, Low Polo, Perf Belt, and Perf Wallet. In another couple weeks we should be getting in the GHA Windbreaker as well as a couple of New Eras.

One of our spring t-shirts was a little delayed but we got in the 10 Year Tee.

Skavenger B-Ball shorts are also in. They come in Nets and Bulls colorways.

Check out the online store for everything.

At the end of last summer we were riding in Manhattan when someone mentioned they were building a new concrete skatepark at Chelsea Piers on west side. We pedaled over to check it out, the park was still under construction but there was no guard in sight so we hoped the fence and got to ride for about 40 minutes before we thought we were pushing our luck. Even with it being pitch black the park was still amazing and in my opinion better then any other park in the area. I was not psyched to find out that bikes would not be allowed.

Ed Pollio recently contacted someone from the Hudson River Park Trust to find out why bikes are not allowed (READ IT HERE). The reasons given are pretty absurd. Through his conversation he also found out they are leaning towards not letting bikes into the newly proposed skate plaza in Queens which would be really ridiculous.

Over the past few years there has been a big effort to get NYC Parks to build a FREE indoor skatepark. We are getting a little closer to it becoming a reality thanks to Project Spark.

When your done add them on facebook.

Garret was out in Barcelona a few months ago, and in this Vital edit of Mike "Rooftop" Escamilla, Garret has a few clips eating a sandwich from his favorite food spot and riding this random mini ramp at a bar called Nevermind. Check it out below; he may have hit that light above the ramp about 38 times. Garret's first Animal ad (out now in Dig #75) at the infamous fin was also from that trip.
