The Official Skateboards press release came out today:
For the last two years, Rodney Torres has been the face of Official Skateboards. Due to unfortunate circumstances beyond our control, Rodney has decided to move on in his career. We would like to thank Rodney for everything he has done for Official and for the commitment he made in building the brand. While his absence from the team will be felt by all of his family and friends here at Official, we would like to wish Rodney only the best in all his future endeavors.

Although we are very sad to see Rodney go, Official will continue making quality skateboard products. We have been spending a lot and time and effort building a flow team, trying to help them come up. Be on the lookout for a lot of footage and photos from Pedro Garboza, Bobby Izzo, Shane Perry, and Derick Ziemkiewicz. These kids are going to be a fixture in skateboarding for a long time and we are proud to be supporting them.

Mar 30, 2005
The 75 dollar 5-0, huh?
steve

Mar 29, 2005
By this time tomorrow I should be 25 bucks or 50 bucks poorer than where I was today. This is all due to the stupid "Skateboarding on sidewalk" law that the city of White Plains has passed. Illegal to skateboard in the city. So me and two others will pass in front of the judge one by one as he gives us our payment sentences.
steve

Mar 26, 2005
Ok, so basically yesterday and today is the most ive skated in the whole month. Yesterday started off good because we met up Ricky Oyola, Alex Porta, Bobby Puleo, Frankie and we got stuck in a lot of traffic, and then ended up skating some westside spot. Then Ben Allen joined the party. Whateves, but Bobby, Alex, Ben and myself left the group and skated down the westside highway as the sun was setting, which was sick. I knew Bobby was sick but never knew how good until i cruised through the westside with him. He's effortless. So yeah we skated from Midtown to downtown. So the trip started off frustrating and than ended with some fun cruisin'. Than today it was just some fun BBQing at 2nd Nature and some sick skating out in the school next door. The revised quarter is sick. Thanks dudes.
steve

Mar 20, 2005

Get off the internet and do it. www.secondavenuezine.tk NOW! Also, I got footage this weekend, so winter can kiss my ass.
Alex


Dec 6, 2004
Yes, this is true. The infamous spot that we thought would last a life time, is in the mits of being destroyed. I am talking about our long loved Brooklyn Banks. In the beginning of the week the spot was fenced off and started being destroyed. Another famous and amazing spot that has many battered victims under its belt is the Verizon Banks. This spot is one of those spots you look at and imagine you can do some many things on it, but when you actually get there it's so hard to skate. That's what makes NYC skateboarding totally real. You don't know how gnarly a spot is until you find it and look at it with your own eyes. I hope this is the end to the amazing spot destruction rampage by the NYC Parks Dept. Speechless and breathless.
steve

Nov 23, 2004
All i got to say is that warm weather is holding on with salad like fingers. Whatever that means. Since I finally figured out how to post again, more news to follow. Check out the new Stereo video, enough art for me and more. I think Bobby summed me up best yesterday, "You skate like Dill from 1992." Is that a compliment? Barge it. Shred it. Light it on fire.
