So many awesomes.

We have so many awesome jackets in right now!! Everything to suit your winter needs. We have jackets with fur, jackets with no fur, jackets made of fur, jackets with fish and eagles....okay, that's a lie. We don't have jackets with fish and eagles..but if you want one, I'm sure we can track one down for you. So come on down, it's winter. You're in denial, you need a jacket.

Poopies are my favorite animals.

Mat has some neat new pictures up in his profile. He's craaaaayseeeee. Click here Chancho.

Stay golden Yoshi. stay golden.

Don't forget that there is plenty of new gear in the shop!!!!! Waaay too much gear, so come and buy something. Here's Yoshi modelling some of the great gear in the shop. Yoshi, promise us you'll never put on tight jeans again. Please.

What do you get when you cross a unicorn and a skateshop?

Something very special arrived today. And no Robbie, I'm not talking about your Emerica shoes.....I'm talking about the Ltd. Edition Russ Morland DNA artist series t-shirts.!!!!!!! I know some of you have been waiting your whole lives for something this cool. So now that the shirts are here, get a life. You can stop asking me when the Russ tee's are going to get here. They are going to disappear fast, and when they are gone, well....they're gone. Forever and ever. And then I'll sell you mine for double the price. So come on down for yours today, they come in three fabulous colours!! Buy all three!! Trade em' with your friends!! Buy one, and complain about how much a t-shirt costs these days!! Support your local artist, and your local skateshop.

Gary and Ace.

Pat and Rigo make an excellent team. They are on a roll of getting some fabulously fantastic photos!!! Here's one of Patches doing a kickflip fakie on the DNA ramp. Way to go boys, keep em' coming. The best part of the photo is me to the left, clapping, even though pat is in the air. Yeah, I don't know either, you figure it out.

Fully Scared.

One more week my little friends. One more week until the Lakai Koston shoe arrives. Be prepared, with your wallets, and your dirty feet...be prepared.

Feast your eyes.

Feast your eyes on this tasy lick!! It's the new guy in town, Curtis, doing a nollie heelflip. [photo]Rigo Gonzalez.

I like my butt.

Here's a new pic to feast your eyes on. Surprise!! It's me!! Playing on the new toy at the north end park. Frontside Hurricane, [photo]Rigo Gonzalez.

Super Pat.

Pat Hooney has a nice pretty new photo on his page. Go to Pats page here bro.

A message to you Rudy. ska sucks.

The Rudy Crew is hard at work on another video that should be dropping very soon. You can check out the newest teaser HERE. Leave some comments for the boys. The video looks hot. Pure hotness.

Tony Tave is pro and you're not.

I guess I can post things that happen outside of our little Island skate bubble. Tony Tave is pro for Circa, and definately deserves it. If you haven't seen his part in "it's time"...then here's your chance...it's on the thrasher website.Thrasher Magazine.

Skull Skates 30 year anniversary.

So on the suggestion from an illiterate tractor loving moron, I've updated the site. I know it's been whopping total of four days since I posted last, so calm down people, here's an update!! The Skull Skates/Circa 30th anniversary shoe has arrived!!! It's the Lopez 50 shoe, with a nice little Skull Skates hit on the side. For those of you who don't know, PD (founder of skull skates) opened his first shop in Nanaimo, yup, 30 years ago. And it was actually just half a block away from our shop. Skull Skates is a part of skateboarding history, and are still alive and well. Come and get your pair of Skull Skates 30th birthday shoe....there are very, very, very, limited sizes available. And will never be available again. And we are the only shop in town to have them...so don't bother going anywhere else fools!!!!!!!!

Godamn shoes.

So many godamn shoes here now. Please come and get some.

Epicness.

Epic bowl sessions going down lately. I am a bowl local now. I wasn't jumped in though. [o]Pat Hooney - 360 flip, [o]Jay Z - Varial Kickflip. Pics by the fabulously magnificent Rigo Gonzales.

Dan Kelly for city council.

So it seems we are in for some radical changes at the north end park!! The perimeter of the park is being considerably extended to allow the skating of previously unskateable objects. Also the five stair rails are going to be replaced with rails that are skateable!!!! And the new asphalt will come up high enough so that skating over the five stair rails is possible. You can all thank Dan Kelly, give him a big hug, because he is up there as I write this supervising the construction. There is also talks of getting some new concrete benches with angle iron....believe it. We love you Dan Kelly.

Soros for president pt. 2

Brandan Soros will be leaving Tuesday for the big city. Big city lights, big city women, big city dreams. His dreams of becoming a first rate male hooker. Good luck to ya Brandan, and you will be missed. I'll be over to skate with you every weekend.

Soros for president.

ummmmmm.....Brandan Soros is really good. He pretty much put on a one man demo on the new barricade toy. Here is some sequences for you. A kickflip backside nose grind, and a nollie heelflip nose slide. Oh, he also did a kickflip backlip (four times in a row for my camera), a backside noseblunt slide, front blunt, kickflip back tail, kickflip front nose grind, my brain had shut down at that point. I'll post all the other photos soon...for now, dig these sequences.

Why are you so far away? why.

I can't believe I haven't skated the new toy yet. I am sad. I am sad the park is so far away, and the Nanaimo transit system is a complete farce. I am sad that it's raining today. But this picture of "the timms" makes me happy. Rigo's pictures make me happy. "the timms" about to touch down a backside bluntslide. [o]rigo.

I'm a ramblin' man.

If you haven't noticed, and I'm sure you haven't...because nobody looks at the site anymore.....there is an archive's link to the corresponding months. It was getting to be a little much having all the posts on one page. So there you have it. Take a browse through the ramblings from the shop.

Hooray.

New decks are here from Concyse skateboards....just in time for winter. But seriously, there is plenty of sunshine in the forcast. So come on down and set up a concyse deck. Each Concyse deck comes with a free concyse T-Shirt. Can't beat that deal with a big stick. Go to the concyse website pronto.

Your second chance dummy.

If you missed your first chance to get your grubs on a Kitsch board, here's you second. Kitsch decks are once again gracing our deck wall, I know you were all in panic mode, but don't worry, the universe is once again complete. The boards are getting rave reviews from our local plank stars. And if you want a cheap poor mans way of getting a piece of artwork from Russ Morland, come and buy a Kitsch deck and hang it on your wall, you cheap bastard. Kitsch website here, silly.

Summer in our hearts.

Sunny days are still upon us, and in the forcast, but our winter stock has started arriving. New Matix, Lakai, DVS, C1rca, and plenty more brands are on the way. Come down and get yourself a nice toasty warm Matix Zip Up. You might not beable to score yourself a hot date for the weekend, but at least you'll look good in your new hoody playing monopoly with the family.

Weather you like it or not.

I added the Nanaimo weather forcast in the "websites we like" link section. So you can check out the weather and plan your fun filled skate days around it. There is plenty of sunshine in the forcast for next week....so skate your face off.

Ramp locals.

Plenty of new photos on the "ramp locals" page. Check it out. You down with the ramp locals?

Pat is too nice.

Pat risks it all and goes for a 5.0, and bombs into the mouth of the dark enchanted forest. This was the last we ever saw of Pat. [o]photo by Russ Morland. And Brandan logs his first photo back from the land over yonder. Pulls a pirate sized heelflip, putting this ball diamond to use. [o]photog also by Russ Morland.

We love you.

So it's been a productive day for the DNA blogsite. It must mean the shop is dead...or I'm motivated. A little of both actually. I just thought it would be rad to have a whole page dedicated to our friends, fans, lovers, bro's, bro-ette's, and Robbie. Just to show you guys I give a shit. Click here to see your ugly mug.

DNA Mellow Tranny Training Facility.

DNA now has a new team profile. It's for our good friend, "the dna ramp". It will serve as our rainy day/winter team hang out. I'll put up all the nice pictures I obtain from this top secret location. It will serve as a training ground for our team members who are out of touch with their tranny skills....which is all of us. Check out the ramp page here foo.

Qualicum connection.

This is an official welcome to the team blog for Dan Higgins. I don't have enough photos for a team profile for him yet, so I'll show you what I snapped off at the park yesterday of Dan. This kid has an amazingly relaxed style, and a super humble attitude. He's part of the Qualicum connection, and I swear it's something in the water out there that is breeding super human skateboarders. So welcome to the team Danny, you're the perfect addition. [o]360 flip over manny pad.

Friday is foto day.

New team guy pics up on Mat Howells' page, and that wallride guy Tyler White. Enjoy this extended summer people.

Tyler White is alllllright.

Myself, Tyler, and Dave got all hopped up on energy drinks and went skating tonight. Tyler buzzed his way into this rock to fakie on a death ledge. (don't bother looking for it unless you have 65mm wheels) [o]jay z [o]david took one too.
