Joe Sexton

Here is Joey Sexton's part from the Stepchild Video it is fairly amazing and he is definitely on the come up, as well as one of my personal favorites, he is going to be in the next installment of Mack Dawg's "People" video so needless to say he's in good company.



If you liked this check out his part in the EPI video from two years ago "Fire Fight" he rides to the bee gees and is still sick. If you don't have it come in and watch the shop copy.

I was absolutely astonished to see that EB Leominster's very own Jeremy Reid was seen out cavorting around with none other than lindsay lohan! Nice work jeremy just remember to wrap it up.

Shapppeee!!

The Shape Video premiere went exceptionally well, the video was sick, and most importantly everyone had fun. pictures will be up as soon as steve gets his shit together.

heres the teaser for "this is for everyone"

ONE MORE REMINDER!

Shape premier tonight. You should probably come.

Travis Parker

Ok so i was lurking around the internet and i stumbled upon the airblaster site and after reading the opening statement from Travis Parker I was instantly reminded why he is the best person in snowboarding. For those of you who don't know who Travis Parker(not to be confused with a slighty more famous drummer) is he is a former pro shred who recently took himself out of the game and last i heard is now a sushi chef somewhere in south lake tahoe. Basically he has the best attitude towards life and everything else, and if 90% of the snowboarders out there shared his views on life, everyone would be all the better for it. watch this video and this explains why he is the best snowboarder ever.

tommy kruper loves full pipes.

here's a preview of toms footage in thanks camera 3

M.J SOTY

Marc Johnson was just voted the thrasher mgazines skater of the year for 2007 and if his part in the new lakai video "fully flared"(dropping this friday 12/7) is as good as i've heard it is he may just be voted the the most amazing skateboarder ever.hes got my vote.

R.I.P Evel

I am saddened to say that Evel Kenevel has passed away. He was one tough, badass mother fucker; if you get a chance watch absolute evel he was a gnarly dude. Rest in peace.

oakley has superior optics.

So Oakley decided to throw a party for all us hard working shop folk. They're claiming it as "mega clinic" but i don't buy it. but i will say this guy did an excellent job pointing out all the finer details of goggles.



So be sure to ask Steve to break down how Oakley optics are far better for you.
On top of fun filled optics facts, they had a build your own goggle bar if you were lucky enough to obtain a VIP card. this basically explains it pretty well.





Trevor Andrews band Trouble played people danced fun was had





Oh and i forgot to mention there was also an open bar.



so that being said i think these next three pictures sum up the night pretty well.





so if a lazy eye and a marker mustache don't spell a good time i don't know what does. thank you to mark, nelson, aaron and everyone else from oakley for throwing one hell of a party you guys never disappoint.

EB + Consolidated

Eastern Boarder and the funny people at Consolidated have teamed up to make this limited graphic.

FREE HOT WAX

Free hot wax for the first 30 customers at the shop this Saturday, December 1st. Bring your board, we'll wax it while you wait!

We'll be setting up a tuning tent outside to celebrate the official start of snowboard season.

SHAPE Premiere

Taco Bell Tuesdays

going strong for three straight weeks now is the Tuesday tradition of Taco Bell for dinner.


Mike's usual order:

• 2 baja beef chalupas
  
• 1 grande soft taco
  
• 1 giant dr. pepper
  

Steve's usual order:

• 1 baja beef chalupa
  
• 1 grilled stuffed burrito meal

Brittnee's usual order:

What is it?

No we arn't talking about Pat's new hairstyle..

We are talking about what City Skateboards just posted on their site about Dave.


If the actual meaning of what a Bachinsky is was used to only describe Dave, then Wikipedia says this is it.
Whatever it means, hes really good at skating and at having fun. That last picture was taken at Mac's apartment where they are working on getting a free month's rent. Couple more weekends and they should be all set. And if crime really does pay for Dave then maybe mac's neighbors have something to do with it.

But in other skate stuff we just got in the new Habitat Video Inhabitants. You should check it out and watch the promo for it here.


The lakai video has premiered around the country and is expected to be at EB the second week of December so get hyped. If you like skating the only other thing to hope for after that is nice weather. So you better start praying.

Natick ♥ 's Dunkin

There is no traffic on Route 9. Natick is heaven on Earth. Sale lasts all weekend long!

Brace Jam!!! Support a great cause for a great friend!

1st snowfall of the season

Here's a photo of what was going on at Waterville Valley today...



Here's a photo of what was going on in my front yard...

15 Minutes of Fame

The Andy Warhol x Burton collection has been getting more publicity than Paris Hilton's crotch.
- featured here on hypbeast.
- here in Transworld Business
- and in the January issue of (Brittnee's favorite) Nylon magazine



But in the rare case that you haven't heard about it yet, the story goes like this:
Burton has teamed up with the Andy Warhol Foundation to create a limited line of boards, outerwear, and accessories for this season. The Warhol Foundation is a "not-for-profit" based out of NYC that promotes the visual arts. Blah Blah Blah... in summary, the collection looks rad. The print that has been getting the most attention is the polka-dot Edie Sedgwick, which can be seen on most of the women's line. Now available at your local Eastern Boarder.

Zvereff Attacks EB

Im doing this guest edit because the people at EB are slothful. All they do is talk about skateboards and fun, instead of planning for their futures in accounting and HR.


This is a video I made about my trip north to Massachusetts over the weekend.

Blame Marky Mark

Apparently there are cities in the US that are trying to pass legislation in order to "outlaw" baggy jeans.
The argument is that saggy jeans result in indecent exposure, but the majority of people think it is ridiculous to try to make dress-code laws.

[The New York Times article is here.]

It is the end of baggy jeans as we know it.
So it's a safe bet that the people at the offices of Krew and Altamont are throwing some serious parties.
Perhaps they should step-up and send some care packages to the boys down in Atlanta and Lousiana. Poor guys.

Natick News: Leominster History

per usual, Bub has already updated the Leominster blog with the scientific limit of product news a brain can handle, even before any other shop's computer is turned on. how DOES he do it?
so if you're riding the late bus with us here in Natick, here is the new(ish) product & news.





Capita and Lib boards have arrived. Including this years stairmaster, outdoor living series, skate banana, and TRS magne-traction. CAPiTA devours everything. As Halloween approaches, don't forget about the only super scary corporation in snowboarding.



"I'm soooooo gay!" Steve's pro-model Consolidated deck came in today. Make sure you come by on a day he's working in order to get your board autographed, and to kick him in the nuts.
