Welcome Crystal, Our New Photographer

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

I would like to take a moment to welcome Crystal, our new photographer. In addition to being our Photoshop guru, some of you may have chatted with her during the day hours on our live chat system. Crystal comes to us with loads of longboarding experience from riding with her dad, who is also a passionate longboarder. If you have any suggestions for her [photography related], use the quick contact form on the home page, and let us know to forward it on to her.

New TLS Stickers. Monster and Slushie.

monster slushie

I wish I could say there was a story behind both of these stickers, but honestly, I think I was hungry during their creation. We often like to hit up Sonic for their 2pm to 4pm happy hour and get very large brain freezing slushies. We love these new stickers very much, and don’t think they will last very long this time.

Mudflap Urethane Shock Riser by System Skate

System Skate has introduced a new urethane shock riser that we are now using on most of our stock completes. The new riser allows for installation on old and new school hole patterns, and can be facing forward or toward the inside of the longboard. The logo is raised with the script “Mudflap, by System Skate”, which gives it a very finished appearance. The Mudflap is 1/8″ thick and made from injection molded urethane, the same material used in longboard wheels and bushings.
