Go see Dragonforce with Joey Fitzpatrick
Team rider Joey Fitzpatrick is a huge fan of Dragonforce. Joey along with Vu and Rams Head Live are giving away 2 free tickets to the first person who can do this trick. The trick must be done on something 3 ft or higher, not in slow motion (this means do it like you would a regular trick), and it must be filmed and submitted to us. Good luck and may the force be with you!

Newest issue of Focus should be the Vu issue
The guys over at Focus skate magazine are doing things right. They're not just a sick magazine but they are putting together a sick SKATEBOARD tradeshow. Go to our events tab for more details.
In the new mag it has an ad for our collab board with Rasa Libre (team rider Damon Shields did the layout), an ad for Ergo and a little interview with the nicest guy in skateboarding Tom Geilfuss, an interview with Trace Blam (www.myspace.com/traceblam) and Vu's photographer David Stuck. The interview was written by the shortest full grown man in skateboarding, Gary Smith.

Newest Transworld
The newest issue of Transworld has an article from when the Elwood team came around. The article mentions Vu and our team riders so be sure to pick up a copy. If you read the article it mentions that Gary owns Skatology (Gary forgot to tell us that he owns that shop too). He's a busy guy.

Brian Tucci in the September Skateboard Mag
If you grab a copy of the Skateboard Mag with Ethan fowler on the cover, be sure to read the news section. Here is what was written because people don't buy skate magazines anymmore
BRIAN TUCCI IN THE WASHINGTON POST
" The Washington Post (washingtonpost.com) published a very detailed and incredibly well done article on Washington DC, street skating legend Brian Tucci. The piece lays out Tucci's history from a childhood accident to his days with H-Street to a brush with hip-hop fame and beyond. Included in the article are quotes from Lance Dawes and Keir Johnson. A slide show of images is also included. Anyone who witnessed Tucci skate in the early 90's knows he's the real deal"
