“Ever since we started doing these 100 Kickflip videos we’ve had a ton of people asking to do their own so we partnered with Nike SB to offer someone that very chance! Out of 1300 people tagging their best kickflips on Instagram it was Trevor McCune of Bakersfield CA who took the top prize. We flew Trevor up to Portland so he could do his very own 100 Kickflip challenge at the Nike SB park with Bobby Worrest in a new NBA edition Bruin shoe. It turns out he’s really, really good so this was not that hard for him… Check out the Bruin low as well as a ton of other Nike SB product at CCS now, and MAJOR congrats to Trevor for blowing our minds!” – CCS
Skateboarding In Socks: The Lost Stance Wear Test – CCS
“A couple years ago we had the terrible idea to put our entire warehouse in some Stance socks and see how a session on our slippery ass floor would go. The footage got lost in someone’s hard drive, and recently we stumbled upon all of it! Luckily no one died, and to be honest the socks held up pretty well. We don’t recommend skating with out shoes, however if you have too, Stance would be a good choice. It would also be a good choice to just buy some to wear in your shoes.” – CCS

If you’re not familiar with Clear Weather, they are a newer footwear brand that created some really unique skate shoes based on the idea of having suede where you need it. Their canvas uppers have a single piece of suede in the spot where you put all the wear on your shoe which gives a unique look and feel to a classic skate silhouette. CCS had their team rider Matt Barnette put their high top shoe, The Jeffrey, to the 100 Kickflip test and it did pretty damn well. Check out our selection of Clear Weather at CCS.com!
