REASON TO BE HYPED.

Art

You may or may not know this, but I was in this past Olympics in China. The sport was skateboarding and my event, technically was art. My teamates were among the best in the game with several of them making it to the podium.

Here's a few photos from hanging the Skate Hype show at the Adidas Brand Communication Center in Beijing's Sanlitun district this month. The show started in Shanghai in July and will continue to travel though out Asia over the next couple months, including Hong Kong, Japan, Korea and Taiwan.

my friend gripped a new board up and when side by side with his old one the stickers randomly just matched up! I tripped out so hard I'm going to send the first person to respond to this post a free sticker pack of their own. All you have to do is promise to send me a photo like this one to trip out on once you recieve the stickers.
