So the ESPY awards went down in LA at the Nokia theater last week, and guess who was at the official after party?! The Nine Star skate team was invited to warm up the big stair set in the middle of the party before a demo by Koston, P-rod, TK and Jeremy Rogers. It was a blast, Sean got a bunch of pictures and then lost his camera so you will all have to make do with my digi-shots I took as I ran around eating and drinking all the free sushi, in-and-out, open bars and bacon wrapped hot-dogs.
Plus check out the video shot by the ESPN folks.
The annual “Life Rolls On” charity golf tournament went down this Monday at the Malibu Country Club. Nine Star sponsored the 5th hole, witch was a down hill par 3, so we we’re giving out skate decks to whoever had the most style shredding the grassy slopes. Check out some of the photos below.

Check out the trailer for Taylor Steele's new flick, Stranger Than Fiction! here's a little info from the filmer:
Is pro surfing a complete lie? Is modern wave-riding being faked for glory and profit? Is Dane Reynolds actually a robot? With trademark humor and a trend-setting soundtrack, Taylor Steele's latest genre-defining action flick pulls back the curtain on pro surfing's deepest, darkest secrets. "Stranger Than Fiction" is more than just the newest high-performance line-in-the sand, it's an entirely new era of surfing. Brace yourself for the truth.
Check it out, lots of familiar faces in this vid, and the rap at the end is funny.
