Austin Stephens pro Toy Machiner is seen here chatting it up with Corey. Welcome to the site Austin.


Corey shows him how its done in Northern California with a boost of a ollie.


Sierra approves...

The Toy team and Sierra have left Coreys house up north. And now everyone makes there way down for ASR this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.


Sierra coming in hot with the warm up ollie.


And the switch ollie.


You can see these guys at the signing during ASR Friday at 3pm...

Sierra has been hanging out in northern California with Corey and the Toy guys the past weekend. Updates from them are coming up all week.

We held a surprise going pro party for Angel in Denver, CO and our rep out there had the pics to prove it.


Angel had no idea but all his friends from Colorado were there to surprise him.






...Meanwhile back at the homestead. Which is across the street from the bar where the party was hosted Angel smokes one last cigarette as a amateur skateboarder. Now he will be smoking as a professional.


Now he is brought to the location where he will be meeting the rest of his friends for the usual Thursday night gathering...


Where his pro model boards were hanging!


Surprise Angel you are now Pro!






Chicks love pros!




Do take notice of the shirt changes going on...








Goodnight Denver...its a wrap.

Angel Ramirez is now a Professional skateboarder! Stay tuned for some super overload blogging from his pro announcement last night in Denver.

Abdias Rivera! This was shot at last years Pheonix Am and he was doing these in his runs every try.


Heres the part that you really don't want to mess up. Picture the crowd in their underwear and imagine the fire hydrant being a small pebble. Pop your board.


Stay focused and keep the board under you. But remember to flick the shit out of it. And pretend you're doing a frontside flip but like only a baby frontside flip because you only need to rotate it 90 degrees since its a shifty.


Think light as a feather and rotate those hips.


Once you get this high try not to just fall straight down onto the fire hydrant on your baby maker.


Prepare to land and not fall. Also slowly start rotating it back to straight.


Don't land 90 or else its just gonna be like a stupid flip or something. I don't even know what to call that.


Land straight as a arrow and roll away screaming Yes Yes Yes. Then throw your hands up and start the YMCA celebration dance and hope the crowd follows...

I found this sequence of Gareth that hadn't been used for anything so I figured what better way than to post a instructional trick tip. These are my words not his. I'm just using him as my stunt dummy.

Step 1: Climb onto the highest possible structure you can. Hopefully it's high enough where you can't even see the bottom where you're supposed to land.



Step 2: Get in tail drop posistion or dump truck or nosepick or handstand or criss cross applesauce or whatever you feel comfortable jumping from onto a skateboard.



Step 3: This is actually part of step 2 but it's so important that I'm highlighting it and including it in it's own step. Point to your friend at the bottom and say "this is for chicks" or "get money" or "pirate life" or "gangster life" or whatever you feel comfortable getting into at that moment in time.



Step 4: Go for it.



Step 5: Don't think about falling. Think about landing. Think happy thoughts...



Step 6: Be very thankful that you didn't completely mess this up! Suck up the impact and party down onto safe grounds to celebrate.



Step 7: Make sure all your friends filmed it. Go straight home and edit it to a sweet song and send it in for sponsorship opportunities.

Angel is featured in the Skateboard Mags latest Mag Minute.



This just in...search for photos of Angel for the Thrasher contest also...

Remember when Alex was more of a actor than a skater? Well I heard he's hit it big time and landed something epic in the new Slap magazine...



Oh David how handsome you have become. Have fun on your trip to the Northwest. Give Angel my best.



Sometimes when I'm at work I wish I was no other place than the bottom of the Woodward foam pit.

Check out Corey at this Osiris signing. And...


...And Split just posted a video website featuring Nuge and Corey.

Thrasher is having a contest on their site featuring Nuge. They will be giving away a Foundation complete every week. Good luck and don't blow it.

Foundation and 303 Boardshop are hosting a BBQ. Don't miss it!

Osiris just posted a little article about the Skate & Create contest Transworld hosted. Check out the footage and photos from it.

Evolution Skateshop in Ohio just had a interesting visitor walk into the shop. Is this the start of a new Foundation giveaway. Dress up like Duffman for prizes?? Because I'm sending this kid a board...

If you think have you done something worthy of a prize then email me. I'm taking Foundation related costumes at the moment... Promo@TumYeto.net

We just posted a new video from our recent trip to Woodward West.

Angel doesn't have footage over at the FKD bearings site but Sierra does. Take a gander.

Sierra has some footage posted over at the Berrics.

David sent me this photo of Angel the other day. He said something along the lines of your really gonna like this photo or this photo is good for the site. Something like that. Sweet. Yeah David I love this photo it looks like it was taken with a disposable camera from 1975 then developed at the local gas station, then rubbed in dirt, then ran over by a car, then left out in the ran, then scanned in and sent to me. Thanks David.
