SNEAK PEEK VX EVERSLICK WITH HENRY GARTLAND! Product Challenge | Santa Cruz Skateboards
Today we take you behind the scenes for some NEW product development and put to the test the all new VX EVERSLICK decks. Santa Cruz is skating the 9 inch boat shape with both their VX technology AND Everslick on the bottom. The VX makes this board stronger and snappier than any other deck on the market and the Everslick adds a further and faster slide on top of that. These boards are not available right now but we are hoping to release them sometime next year if people are interested in a board THIS teched out. In this video we break down the details on each of the products and why they are great. Then we put Santa Cruz Brand Manager Andrew Cannon and Santa Cruz Am Henry Gartland to the test with three different challenges.

Nike SB | Janoski Flyleather
In December 2019, Stefan Janoski headed to London with Elissa Steamer to check out the new Janoski Flyleather. Meeting with the local crew of Korahn Gayle, Casper Brooker and Kyron Davis, they put the shoe through its paces on the streets of London and checked out the factory where Flyleather is made. Comprised of at least 50% recycled leather fiber from scraps that would otherwise be left on the factory floor, Flyleather is a lightweight alternative to traditional suede that doesn’t sacrifice durability or skateability. Learn more about how Nike’s keeping material out of the landfill and reusing it to build a skate shoe for the future.
The Janoski Flyleather is available now in select skate shops and Nike.com.
