Last Monday the 7th of September, we in the skate community lost a brother. Tom Sorci was taken from us by a tragic accident in Sacramento. Tom was a rocklin native, and local skate legend. He is gone but will never be forgotten. Everytime you set foot on a board Tom will be there with us. Rest in Peace my friend.

SATURDAY the 15th of August come down to the shop, and get your BBQ, Manny and Box comp on.  While Hanging out with the Ambiguous team.  Come sk8, or chill with the Ronin and AMBIG crew’s.  Always a good time, we will be kickin it off at 1pm, and our shop favorite DJ EL CONDUCTOR will be there spinning out his usual bag of tricks on his turntables.

Saturday was a good day, for carcass tossing. Thanks to everyone who came out in support of the contest. Before I get right into the results etc….I have to thank Nike SB, Real Skateboards, and Spitfire wheels for sposoring our event. Now that the formalities are out of the way here we go. We paid $5 dollars a trick, and I paid out $60 bucks. In addition we choose the 3 top tricks and awarded those guys prize packs from our sponsors.
1st Shaun Rodriguez w a buttery tre bomb at the buzzer.
2nd Ryan Martin w a gigantic nollie half cab over the bushes.
3rd Stephen Moulding w a swith f/s 180.

Other notables were Trino from 9 16 in Sac, he was the big money winner with $20 for his 4 tricks. Nollie, Benihana, Airwalk, and Stalefish. We had Reef Willard pulling off a 1/2 cab, Austin Cinkel with the kick flip, Zack Sinclair with a caveman, and Justin Rhodes with a B/S 180.

We will be posting some pics from the event soon, Thanks again for all those who came out for the shop. Special thanks to the contestents, and to my staff @ RONIN Trek, and Eric who made it all possible. Until I blog again Peace, MANSTACHE

It’s about your first set up. It’s about getting that trick. It’s about progression. It’s about gripping a board. It’s about finding new spots. It’s about homies. It’s about random people. It’s about getting kicked out. It’s about style. It’s about being yourself.

That’s what we’re about.
