Let\u2019s just start off with the fact that there is a humongous\u00a0Diamond Supply Co. billboard of Christian Hosoi on the corner of Fairfax and Melrose, one of the busiest intersections in Los Angeles. It features the epic photo that Grant Brittain took of Christian at the Perfect Ramp in Mesa, Arizona, doing a Christ air and his body is actually flying above the billboard. Best billboard ever\u2026<\/p>\n

We arrived at the Diamond store on Fairfax and the line was already starting to form down the block. As we walked up, the\u00a0Muska showed up and Steve Caballero and his motorcycle builder, Bryan Thompson, rolled in\u00a0and then we saw Felix Arguelles, Reda, Chris Pastras, Vern Laird and a\u00a0bunch of\u00a0awesome people. Next the Venice homies showed up thick with Haden McKenna, Blake Johnson, Sean Imes, Pony the Tony, Double O Kevin and Bennett Harada.<\/p>\n

We hung out on the sidewalk out front awaiting the appearance of Hosoi, because you know Christian likes to make a rockstar-style entrance\u2026 and he did not disappoint. Christian swaggered up with a giant posse, including his wife, Jennifer and two of his kids, Classic and Endless, Christian\u2019s dad, Pops Hosoi, and Eddie Reategui and his two kids, Ryder and Bella, and the party was on.<\/p>\n

Once we made it\u00a0inside, we chilled out with Nicky Diamond in the back, Biebel showed up and hot chicks were passing out free food and drinks. It felt\u00a0surreal just to be there celebrating with all the heavies in the room. The whole Diamond crew was there representing and then Ray Barbee started jamming, and he\u2019s so damn good. It\u2019s like watching the skater version of Hendrix mixed with Miles Davis. He\u2019s just gets in it and grooves it, providing the ultimate soundtrack for good times.<\/p>\n

The Diamond Supply Co. Christian Hosoi collection is insane. There is a t-shirt with a Cesario \u201cBlock\u201d Montano photo of Christian in Rio De Janiero and a tee featuring the classic Grant Brittain power slide shot of Hosoi at Del Mar as well as chain wallets, hoodies, beanies, shorts, hats and a badass black murdered out denim jacket\u2026 It\u2019s a completely cool collection of radical must-have gear. Everyone there was really stoked for Christian\u2026 and it was an out of sight kind of night.<\/p>\n
