Sabre Vision and Active hit the streets of LA and IE to bring the stoke to the Locs! Stopping by the West Covina skate park, Pomona (Palomares!), and Chino. Best trick contests went down and homies grabbed free shades/decks to add to their spoils. Check the vid featuring Active and Sabre vision riders shredding along with the unsuspecting locals. Big thanks to Jeff Garza from Sabre Vision, the brainchild of this amazing trip! Keep and eye out for Sabre vision rolling through your hood this fall!!

Vans shoes are always coming out in new colors, designs, silhouettes, etc.  So what better way to spice it up than to have an artist’s work printed on the shoe?  That’s just what they’ve done and using artwork by Keren Richter.  Click to read more and see all the photos! (more…)

Active pro team rider and technical skateboarding guru Daewon Song made the cover of TWS this month for their First Annual Skate and Create Issue.

We will let you know when the videos are released, but for now you can admire this cover photo and go out and buy a copy of Transworld’s Skate and Create Issue!
