The Blown Out Shoe Contest Winner!

- The Winner!

- BLOWN OUT!
Congrats to Kevin from Albany NY, for submitting the most blown out etines photo! There were a lot of good entries, some with completely missing toecaps from so much skating, but Kevin was chosen based on pretty much having the gnarliest overall damage to a single pair of etnies we have ever seen. These shoes have done some mileage! Kevin will be flown out to the etnies Skatepark of Lake Forest for a weekend of skatin' and hangin' with the etnies team. Golf anyone?
Thanks to all who entered. More contests to come. Maybe even sooner than you think. Hint: Holiday time.

- Fire-induced blowout!

- Lots of tre flips

Dec 10, 2005the callicuts are for those little fxcking posers and they should just buy a fxcking skate and tech themsleves or something instead of being a fxcking poser!!! i HATE posers! my whole town is filled with them [well my pop. is only like 3,000] but at least we have a sk8park!!! anyways ... CONGRATS to the winner ... i think that i should go and buy some callicuts just to make fun of all the little posers here ... maybe i will ... peace!
merCEDEsakapunks8tabiotch!

Jan 21, 2006just thought of somthing
buy a pair of the ones that fall apart the easyest
skate with them forever
dont put any shoe goo on the shoe, once ur toes start to stick out, take a pair of socks you dotn care about
and put shoe goo where the toes go
wear them forever and youwin
