I think we have held off on doing one of these for WAAAAY too long now. With out further ado AMALL proudly presents the MS PANT CONTEST (round 2).
Thats right, starting today, Sept 1st and running until Sept 15th, Aggressivemall is holding our MS PAINT CONTEST ONCE AGAIN. Here’s how it breaks down:

All entries must be received between Sept 1st and Sept 15th, and are to be submitted to contest@aggressivemall.com and in .bmp file format (don’t try and fool us - we will be able to tell if you’ve made it another program!!! This must and relating to the theme ‘MAJOR STUNTS’ & you can submit as many as you would like (has to be blading related).

Entries will be judged on creativity, craftsmanship, and above all - which ever one makes us laugh the hardest. So pull out the big guns and show us your best, most rotten, artistic, detailed, dreamy, nauseating, sprayed down MS PAINT skills for a chance to win it big. PLEASE BE CREATIVE AND MAKE ME LAUGH SO THAT I HAVE SOMETHING TO LIVE FOR.
Winners will be announced within the week following the closing of the contest Sept 15th.
To set the tone, I made a sick one. Golden hour TTP on the GWOC. BEAT THAT! (click the image to see larger size):
The Conference is rolling strong with 2 new skate releases for the end of summer, AKA back to school! Make the yearbook by skating your school’s infamous drop rail in one of these new skates.
The Nick Lomax Classic Throne skate has a bunch of art displayed in the mix of colors and USD finally released a skate that comes with Anti-Rockers to begin with, so you can just throw these on out of the box and go roll!

Xsjado is back with another team skate, this time aptly named the Pioneer for those of you leaping over boundaries in the aggressive skate world.

The people at Lake Cunningham decided late last week that they wanted to throw their first in-line contest at their park. This is the park we have our WNS at and due to the constant flow of bladers through there they have decided to include in-line into their regular contest schedule. They hit us up to see what was good so we are helping out by organizing sponsors and most importantly getting YOU to show up.

I remember seeing a sample of the SK.1 skates way back at Bitter Cold Showdown X and saying, “I would really like to have those on my feet right now.” Then Soichiro dropped his killer skills and smooth style during the comp in his skates, convincing many others to want to pick up some SK.1’s too.
Fast forward a bunch of months to the present as Valo is proud to announce that the SOICHIRO KANASHIMA!!!!!! skates have arrived and are ready for you to lace up and hit the streets and parks with. Rumor also has it that aMaller Shawn Storm might just have some park footage in the works with the SK.1’s….
Also thanks to all of our pre-order customers for being extremely patient during the wait for these highly anticipated skates.
Xsjado quietly released the Damien Wilson II skates and a lot of skaters are still not aware that these sick new Wilson boots are available now!
It is obvious that Xsjado spent a lot of time in designing the look of the Wilson II’s because these skates look darn good. They even gave the footwraps clear soles to match the clear smoke cuffs.
Bolt on your favorite frames, wheels and bearings and get rolling on some Xsjado’s asap.
Undercover just released their new line of pro series wheels with a total of 7 different sets to choose from. Just like cars, you get to pick up their new 2011 wheels in 2010.
Undercover is held down by Richie Eisler, Nick Lomax, Demtrios George, Jeph Howard (Amall Team Rider), CJ Wellsmore, Iain Mcleod and the rest of their team.
We just received the new Remz HR-1.1 Pro Team skates and all I can say is they are incredible looking. Remz definitely put a ton of effort into finding some proper materials for the skins on the HR’s and it paid off big time!
If you need a new pair of Remz or have been wanting to give them a try, it’s time to man up and throw on a pair of these bad boys and go kill the streets today.
Kyle Nolte sporting the new tee’s from Valo on this nice summer day outside of Amall. Definitely gotta pick up the “Valo 4 Life” one if your rolling on Valos.
As one of the top 5 finalists for the Olympus PEN challenge, KD was given 5K cash, their new E-PL1 camera and a opportunity to tell his story through the camera…and heck, I think it turned out pretty damn good even considering his camera got ganked with all the cool footy midway through the NY trip. Salutations Mr. Dowling and good luck in ye finals.
Be sure to LIKE this video, and check it out in HD. It’s worth it. Oh yeah, that Olympus PEN camera seems like a halfway decent cam too.
If you are in the Nor-Cal area… I’d say within 15,000 miles of San Fran. this is going to be one movie premiere you aren’t going to want to miss. For the last 2 years Valo has been around the world - like 2 times to capture some of the best skating any eyeballs have ever seen. All filmed and edited by none other than Ivan Narez - So you know it’s going to be sick. For more info check out this link.
