We scoured the world wide internets so we could bring you our latest Weekly Wrap-Up for Oct 24 - Oct 30, ’15. Well, that she blows. Peep the goodies!
First off, Arbor’s Whiskey Project and Caliber’s Street Team recently explored the Pacific Northwest and shredded helluva lot of shit. Riders include Sid Melvin, Cam Revier, Sean Imes, Kyle Smith, Jared Huss, Josh Stafford and Branden Howard. This first installment from Arbor and Caliber’s Northwest Trip series is worth peep—peep it!
Next up, we have a Red Bull X Sector 9 collaboration featuring the Downhill Division dudes hitting the fabled Donner Pass ”known as the treacherous path westward in which travelers in the mid-1800s resulted to cannibalism to survive the harsh conditions” Watch Louis Pilloni, A.J. Haiby, Jimmy Riha, Micah Green, and Jackson Shapiera rip down some Steep Mountain goodness.
Toti Bicicleta is steady shreddin’ on the daily and here’s another rad Five-O Wheel Department video of him ripping some hills in a far-off land somewheres.
The Original Skateboards cats have been steady droppin’ new videos—here’s a couple that caught our eyes last week: the first one is of Tom Wiess ripping some parks and the other features Tyler Pridemore and Eric Voorhis, gettin’ busy in Florida.

Industry News:
Sadly, we have been informed that one of our favorite skate everything shops in NYC, the Longboard Loft, will be closing it’s doors soon. Many a skater (ourselves included) have had some great times over the years at this store, so we are sad to see them go, but looking forward to what the crew over there has planned for the future. . .
