July - 07

What a month! Comicon International in San Diego  was a huge success. With the launch of 13 new exclusive products and

the unveiling of the Flying Dutchman track bike, my exhibition space received quite a bit of attention. The Flying Dutchman was photographed for Mark Ecko's Complex Magazine. We sold out of the skate decks and in the chaos of Comicon 2007, a complete skateboard deck was stolen. We all had a blast and I was even able to fit in some jacuzzi time with my two assistants, Tarah and Karyn. Thanks to all who stopped by to say hi, give praise, or take a little something home.
