FS would like to welcome it’s newest rider Darren McCann.  He hails from st. albert and rides his trucks looser than a blues musician

truly though, he only has half a bushing in.  Try riding that and 50 50ing a 10 stair handrail!  Darren and his good buddy Ben Loates were featured in BANG ON a SG LOCS film that you should expect to see up on the web.

We’re hyped to have him on.  Here’s his part from BANG ON.

Another phenomenon the sticker has brought to light is the trendy and CONSPICUOUSLY CONSUMPTIVE nature of many members of society. For those who have been surrounded by the sticker, its familiarity and cultural resonance is comforting and owning a sticker provides a souvenir or keepsake, a memento. People have often demanded the sticker merely because they have seen it everywhere and possessing a sticker provides a sense of belonging. The Giant sticker seems mostly to be embraced by those who are (or at least want to seem to be) rebellious. Even though these people may not know the meaning of the sticker, they enjoy its slightly disruptive underground quality and wish to contribute to the furthering of its humorous and absurd presence which seems to somehow be antiestablishment/societal convention. Giant stickers are both embraced and rejected, the reason behind which, upon examination reflects the psyche of the viewer. Whether the reaction be positive or negative, the stickers existence is worthy as long as it causes people to consider the details and meanings of their surroundings. In the name of fun and observation.

In the late ’90s, pro skateboarders Daewon Song and Tim Gavin founded Matix Clothing because they were sick of clothes that disintegrated whenever they skated. Since then, Matix men’s & women’s asher hoodies have redefined heavyweight fleece, Matix denim continues to dial in fit and durability, and a full line of sweaters and clothing focus on new ways of thinking about color. The Matix pro team of skaters like Marc Johnson, Biebel and McCrank, surfers such as Gabe Kling and Micah Byrne, and snowboarders Mikey LeBlanc, Stevie Bell, and Andreas Wiig show that Matix has evolved beyond skateboarding, into a name that’s at the very core of skate, snow, and surf culture.
