Today Gymkhana will be dropping the first part of their third film, we thought since we are a part of the “Block Party” now that we should take a roll in helping blast this out to the masses, since we know everyone is going to love it. This video is next level. Check out the “Cool Kids” rocking our Tice shade as well as Ken rocking our Murena’s and Kubriks. Keep checking back for the next part of the video and check in on our facebook fan page for the play by play. Big shout out to DC for making this all happen.
Check out our beloved Brent Sandor making waves in the industry, with his aggressive edgy take on goggle design and his love for art. Brent breaks it down to us in his interview on Shay Boarder how snowboarding and art open may doors for him; “Snowboarding and art have introduced me to a world of friends and allowed me further my love of art and design. Snowboarding and art have brought me places and experiences most people will not get. It sounds cliché, but skateboarding, surfing, and snowboarding defined the fork in the road where I chose the path I am on today…” We here at Spy feel blessed to have Brent manning our guns when it comes to the world of goggle design.. Congrats Brent.. its true what they say.. Hard work does pay off.

I wanted to share this great interview that was passed along to me of Louie Vito. Louie had an amazing season this past year, and really showed the world that he is one of the bests, and that the sky is the limit. We are very proud to have Louie as one of our family members. The world is yours Louie, keep chasing your dreams!
We cruised up to the Agenda Trade Show in Huntington Beach to slap some hi fives, have a couple meetings with some topic secret colabs we are dropping, and of course check out the show and see whats in store for the next couple seasons. As we were roaming the show we ran into our boy Louie Vito, he was signing autographs at the Incipio booth. Here are some shoots of Louie doing his thing and also showing us his pro model case
Spy did it big down under this past couple of days at the Burton New Zealand Open. With both of the golden boys getting a spot on the podium. Louie Vito who has been crushing the contest circuit all year grabbing that 3rd place, and Ipod who has pretty much dominated everything grabbing the win and being crowned the winner of men’s halfpipe for the 2010 NZ open. Big shout out and congrats to both of the guys! Keep the hard work up and keep crushing it. Check out Transworld Snow for the whole story and coverage.
Just when everyone thought that summer was here and all the snow of winter had been melted away, Darrell Mathes shows us something a tad bit different. He was up at High Cascade Snowboard Camp shredding for the signature Videograss session. Check out this rad video they put together. Props Darrell, digging all that Spy love! Also check out the new release from Videograss “ Bon Voyage” and always check out the play by play on www.videograss.com
Jacks Surfboards and Huntington Surf and Sport Get Buckwild With SPY!
PIER BULL 2010
The Spyrates once again ventured away from the hallowed safe harbors of San Diego for a little mischief and mayhem behind the Orange Curtain (aka THE OC).We headed straight for the heart of Surf City, Main St. Huntington Beach for a night of plunder and wonder over at the Black Bull Chop House.After a brief product clinic on SPY eyewear and some cocktails, it was time to rekindle a year old rivalry and put the bull between some thighs! Pier Bull Round 2 was on!
Nik killing the Clinic, big ups
This year’s turnout proved to be one for the ages, as all hands on deck were repping hard flying the flag for their local store and taking to the ring to battle for the right to raise the horns! (Bull Horn Trophy that is!) With drinks being shuttled in by the Spyrate wenches, there was not a thirsty mouth in the house as the competition escalated between the retail juggernauts.After some inspired riding by both Jacks and HSS employees, the final came down to a heated battle between HSS Pierside, and Jacks Dana Point location. The final literally came down to a second with Jacks DP pulling out the victory! Congrats to Jacks Dana Point! You have a target on your back for next year!
Jack's "Dana Point".. Winners!!!
After a brief awards ceremony we had a first time three-way between a few of the lovely ladies of HSS! They for sure get the spirit award, as most of the meat in the house was no longer soft. (Outside the kitchen of course). Black Bull Chophouse serves both a mean steak and a stiff Cubra Libre, and I suggest you stop by and take a shot at the bull.Special thanks to Lawrence at Black Bull for a amazing evening! And Jacks and HSS for always bringing the enthusiasm.
Check out our boy Ahmet Dadali interview on the Level 1 site. He’s coming off his best season yet, just locked in the opening segment in the new Level 1 flick, and is also slated for our fist print ad of the year on the back cover of the Freeskier Buyers Guide. This man is on fire, keep your eyes open for him this season!
