I just wanted to give you guys a heads up that our circulation page is now %100 up to date with the stockists of Issue 9. If the store is on the map, they got sent a box of magazines last week, so if you’re trying to track down a copy check here for the closest store.

If you ride overseas at all, you might have noticed Bern helmets. You may have also noticed that they were never really represented in Australia…untill now. They make a few rad helmets and most of them work for winter and summer, so you can get away with one helmet for all your skating and snowboarding needs. Plus, TJ Schneider is on the team, which is nice. I’m not really sure where you can get them, so ask your local to track one down.

ESS have helped us put on 2 showings of our new film and proved themselves to be awesome dudes. Basiclly, we think they deserve your money, and what better way to give them your money when your getting shit for cheap. Starting May 7th ESS are having a 10-50% off everything sale! It ends Sunday (the 10th) so make sure you get in there before it’s too late.

Lush Productions are celebrating the re-launch of Alphanumneric by giving away free shit! For those that missed the post the other week, Alphanumeric relaunched in late April. You can check out a sick interview with A# originals Mirko Magnum and Alyasha Owerka Moore about the relaunch here. Oh, and for the free stuff (including iPod’s filled with the original A# mixed tapes!) head over here to find out more.

OK so for those of you that don’t know the Maloof brothers are some of the richest businessmen in America, they currently own multiple casino’s in Vegas, and one of the worst teams in the NBA, the Sacramento Kings. Basically they now think skateboarding is cool, and are putting a small portion of their money into “The worlds biggest skateboard comp”, and by small portion of money I mean $450,000! God damn! You could live in a house like this with that kind of money, or even this, but maybe not this. Anyways at least they were kind enough to invite Australia’s Jake Duncombe and Jake Brown to the July 11-13 contest, best of luck to them and here’s hoping they can bring home some blood money from the Vegas heartland.
