DOGTOWN MOVIE SCREENING - Sept 30 - Screening of Dogtown and Z-Boys @ Carpinteria Arts Center - Carpinteria, CA DVS SHOES WELCOMES LAMARE HEMMINGS TO THE TEAM. BLIND WELCOMES DANILO CEREZINI TO THE TEAM DOWN FOR LIFE - a letter from Brian Kelly - Alabama skateboarding Pro Legend Pat Wachter contacted me about sponsoring a 'Pro-Contest' at Veterans Skate Park in Alabaster, Alabama. It's been well over a decade since there was a professional skateboarding contest held in Alabama. Pat has personally offered $1000.00 for first place prize money. Pat has offered this generous contribution in an effort to return professional skateboarding to Alabama and to give back to an industry that allowed him to have the opportunities in his life and times as a pro-skateboarder. Pat Wachter's generous sprit to give back the love and provide future opportunities for skateboarding is exactly the type of energy skateboarding could use more of. Of course, $1000 dollars wouldn't get the attention of many in the professional ranks today, but it's a great place to start. Please join us in our effort to bring professional skateboarding back to Alabama by contributing to the event and igniting a flame that has long lingered. All contribution's our greatly appreciated and contributors will receive advertising at the event in an effort to help raise the prize money that would entice the professional skateboarding community. Best Regards, Brian Kelly - Ride Skateboards at Veterans Skate Park. http://www.rideskateboards.com
