HUF Team Canada!

June 16th, 2011 Written by Livestock No comments

Big up to our dude, Bryan Wherry and the new Canadian HUF Skate Team. Bryan works out of our Gastown location and recently was made HUF  team manager:

Without further adieu, HUF Team Canada!

“Under the guidance of Take Fives Team Manager and HUF Canada team rider, Bryan Wherry, we are proud to announce the Canadian HUF team.

When we sat down to build this team we knew that it was going to be a very select group of guys. We really wanted to compile a crew that represented HUF for all it’s worth. This really meant a strong balance of style and skills. As all of us know Keith Hufnagel represents this like very very few people and sets a high standard for the team.”

Torey Goodall – As soon as we set the guidelines a few names popped up into mind, the first being Torey Goodall. If any of you have had the pleasure of meeting this guy you will agree he is as solid as they come and has more natural talent than is fair to the rest of us. Torey is originally from Vancouver but currently resides in Montreal in between nomadic stints.

Mike Vince – Next to mind was Mike Vince, another one of those guys who just ooses style. It’s awesome to see the level people have taken skateboarding to in the past few years, but you have to admit that there are a select few that you could just watch push down the street and get phsyced to go skate. Mike is one of those. It also helps that he’s got the talent to put that good style to some use. Mike is from Winnipeg but often calls Vancouver and Barcelona home for months at a time. Check out a clip of him from Supper’s Ready: The Green Apple Family Tree here.

Mike Fyfe – Mike Fyfe was the third person to be brought into the mix. Your going to notice a reoccurring theme here but again another guy who has a great balance of skills and aesthetics. You’ll be able to see a full length part of Mike displaying these traits in the upcoming Studio Skateboards video and you can check out his part from Elephant Direct here. Mike sometimes calls Montreal home, often calls Ottawa home and in between calls whatever bed, couch, or floor he’s sleeping on home.

Sam Mulholland – Sam Mulholland rolls with the Blue Tile Lounge crew which should tell you enough right there. I’ve only known of Sam for the past 6 months but in those 6 months (which I should ad has been winter) he sent me enough photos for a feature interview.

Jai Ball – Jai ball is the most recent additon to the crew. An all around stand up guy and one of Montreals finest for the last decade. This guy lives and breathes skateboarding everyday while still finding time to run his own company Studio Skateboards. Definitely a stylish dude on and off his board with the skills to match. Look out for his full part in the soon to come Studio video.

Bryan Wherry - A skateboarder till the day he leaves this earth. As genuine as they come. We are stoked to have Bryan on the team and equally as stoked to have him help us take care of the crew. Bryan is an Ontario native calling Vancouver home. You can take an up close and personal look at his pad in Vol 9 issue 2 of Color Magazine.

Nike’s “The Pool”

May 31st, 2011 Written by Livestock No comments

The Pool was more than a BMX comp, it was one of the most extra-ordinary gatherings of the BMX community this century. From the draining of a soon to be demolished local authority swimming pool in Dagenham, East London, into a world class park in less than two weeks was a feat in itself, but to see the diversity and level or riding on display at the launch event was truly remarkable.

40 international riders with a brand new team format saw non-comp riders, veterans, street destroyers and park animals all throw down into something far better than we could have dreamt of.

The Pool – The Full Story from Nike 6.0 on Vimeo.

Winning Team:
Dennis Enarson, Chad Kerley, Josh Harrington and Jeremiah Smith

Best Line: (Awarded to Ruben’s team)
Ruben Alcantara, Kevin Kalkoff, Sergio Layos, and Tom Dugan

Best Rider: (Rider’s choice)
Dennis Enarson

Best Trick:
Brian Foster – Gap to curved wallride out of the deep end

If you are anywhere near Dagenham in East London – The Pool is free to ride until the 12th June 2011 !

Canucks on to the Stanley Cup!

May 25th, 2011 Written by Livestock No comments

Last night in a double overtime win, we saw the Vancouver Canucks move on to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time in 17 years, and the third time in Franchise history. After a strange bounce off a glass stanchion, which left everyone in the arena, including Kevin Bieksa, wondering what the heck had just happened, the puck ricocheted straight to Bieksa, who slapped the puck past an unsuspecting Antti Neimi for the series-clinching goal. Check out the reaction from above the city and from the heart of downtown, let us know where you were at when the Canucks won it.
