BambooSk8′s Youngest Skater :)

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Every day I talk via email to a variety of young skaters via Loop’d. These skaters range from children to adults and it is awesome because they share with me cool videos and pictures of themselves. But it is the youngest kids that I think are super interesting. At a recent ASEC event in Orange County, CA, I got to meet someone whom I believe is BambooSK8’s youngest skater, Shaw.  Shaw is 4 ½ years old, only rides BambooSK8 and tears it up! He is tough for his age too! He’d fall and just brush it off and keep going. HE DOES NOT CRY. He is probably about the size of the cruiser board we gave him to try out… see for yourself:

investment opportunity?

I see a lot of random things on the internet related to skating and by far this has maintained as one of my favorites. Do you have $8,250 to spare?  They’re only making 3 of them… You’ll def. try to figure out a way to scrape that together once you see this bad boy. Maybe a good present for the girlfriend….

Advertisement Contest

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

SO this internship is all about having goals, accomplishing your goals, etc etc. One of my goals was to create an advertisement contest on Loop’d… and I have! The contest revolves around the idea of including the BambooSK8 logo as well as a creative catchphrase onto an image. This can be an image of themselves or something random. (As long as they submit a signed photo release waiver, they can include pictures of themselves) I post all the eligible entries into a photo gallery on Loop’d titled “Ad Contest Entries” and the Loop’d members can view, comment and vote on their favorite advertisements. The winner of the contest will be picked by the interns and they will receive 5 decks and stickers. We have 24 submissions at the moment and it is growing every day. I am hoping that this contest will really take off now that most schools are out for summer and the Loopties will have more free time to take pictures and mess around on the computer.  

Here is a link our Loop’d profile where the contest is featured: http://www.loopd.com/members/bamboosk8/Home.aspx
