Flea receives SIMA humanitarian award of the year from Tony Hawk

Flea receives the SIMA Humanitarian of the Year Award from Tony Hawk and Izzy Paskowitz during Liquid Nation Ball 6, La Jolla California, September 11, 2009

I have been a fan of the Red Hot Chili Peppers for over 20 years… I’ve seen the Chili’s at least 10 times in my life and have met Anthony and Flea on different occasions in LA.  I can’t even describe what it’s like to be in their energy field other than an amazing sense of gratitude for the music they make and the love they spread through the world.  If you would have told me 20 years ago this band would sell millions of records – I would have said ”no way” despite being a huge fan.  If you grew up in the 80′s, then you would know how important this band was to skateboarding and how much they loved skateboarding. 

Anyhow, Flea says, “What i do is what you are suppose to do…be kind, love people, treat them fair, etc.”  We can all learn something from this humble individual we call Flea.  Nobody weird like me…

Action Sports Retail – 2009

Friday, September 18th, 2009

ASR – where do we start?  Smaller than ever…  You could literally walk it all in a day and be done.  But what fun would that be?  Lucky for us, we had a booth with other green companies in the ASEC green room, full of carnival surprises.  It seemed we created a lot of excitement this year for our new 100% bamboo longboards, and of course our new 100% and 70% bamboo short decks.  People were also excited to learn about the Green Washed Ritual music project – check out our music page for more details.
