Valo TV.2 Commercial…

http://www.vimeo.com/4501583

My homey Dustin has been working full tilt on some video projects lately with his main 9-5 and his side gig RollPhilly.com. His newest work is this fresh spot for the Valo TV.2 skates. I saw that they’re putting out some white ones of these… JJ! i STILL need my pair! nudge nudge, wink wink!

ONE Video Trailer…

ONE Video Trailer

My boys at ONE Magazine have unleashed one of the best Trailers (certainly the most technically advanced) ever for their latest project. The ONE Video. If you’re lucky enough to be attending Winterclash this weekend, stay tuned for more info on their site about a special premiere out there.

This is going to be BIG. Only a few more weeks to wait until it’s available.

Check out the trailer HERE in HD/iPod

GETTING STRONG NOW!

took them 15 years, but the philadelphia phillies are back in the world series!

REVERSE THE CURSE!!!

Adobe TV's Valo Feature

Jon Julio just got himself a little feature for Adobe TV’s series “The Creatives” . Pumped for this! You can check it out on their site and get a little insight on his day-to-day running Valo and being the dope dude that he’s always been.

Props to Jon for getting a little exposure outside of the normal, expected channels, and doing it with the class we’ve all become accustomed to.

sign me UP….

the UP (new Pixar jam for next year) teaser trailer is good to go. it’s looking like one of those old software/hardware showcases from the early siggraph days, but who cares, i’m into it. you can see a better flash embedded version at the official UP website.

rollin’…

totally been meaning to post this for about 3 weeks, but i’m only getting to it now… if you are looking for new rollerblading related content on the internet (and who isn’t these days) you should check out this new site from my buddies dustin and justin. they’ve got a ton of stuff planned for it with lots of video and good content. it should end up being quite the philadelphia archive eventually.

rollphilly.com

today is june 12th…

mgsbook.jpg

this book is the extent of my metal gear solid 4 experience for now (ok, i did listen to the soundtrack too). i’m holding off on the ridiculous amount of money i’d have to pay to play it, since i don’t have a ps3, but if you’ve got mgs4 stories… let’s hear them in the comments. a lot of people have been waiting a lonnnnnng time for today to finally come, and this would not be exclusivestm.com if we didn’t mention it today.

Arlo + Valo

!!! two rollerbladers that the exclusives™ have much love for are getting together to do something great for rollerblading. mr. arlo eisenberg himself just posted this teaser on the franco blog (buy some goods while you’re there too) and i am SO down. this is what rollerblading needs… more attention to art, design, and fostering relationships for NEW executions of our old ideas. other skate companies take note!

jj and arlo, please consider this my personal formal request for 1 pair whenever they are ready.

REJOICE! $199

wow, was it just me or did the internet kinda-sorta almost pause for a minute there while we sat through those dveloper demos? nice one steve. full coverage on engadget i dunno… i wish it was a completely new build, oh and it’s $299 for the white 16 gig, if you didnt see it.

FAIL…

“grant inbounds the ball to harper… he runs it to mid court… ”
“hands off to pippen, pumpfakes a 3, direct pass to jordan in the lane… ”
“wait.. that’s not jordan!??? this just in folks, there appears to be what looks like a court jester on the court! how’d he get on the floor? security is on the court carrying him out… no word on where jordan is. ”

seriously? this is what you do to “celebrate” the olympics? wow.

jordan brand recipe for success…. jordan VI (awesome), original white color base, (awesome), harlequin olympic color accents, patent leather upper, weird butterfly embroidery on the toe, annnnnd $150 price point… sigh. what’s difficult about making a white version of the DMP VI? white with gold… olympics.. come on.. not rocket science.

VOTE…

if you hadn’t heard yet, my boys over at ONE magazine are holding a t-shirt design contest. they enllisted designers from all different corners of the inline world and had them design a tee for ONE. it didn’t have to include “ONE” or even their logo… it just had to be a cool shirt.

the submissions are in… check them out by clicking on the pic above, or HERE. the Exclusives™ got in on the fun too. we’ve got some submissions in there! atleast 3 that i know of, but for the sake of keeping it annonymous, you’ll have to figure it out on your own. vote for the one you would like them to produce now!

Something to be excited about…

DL trailer

conan the destroyer dvd

i dunno about you, but it’s unfortunately been awhile since some “thing” (be it a product, or trick, or whatever) in rollerblading has perked my ears up. check out the clip, and get excited too. the homey dustin latimer is putting together a new video.

although.. that font’s gotta go dustin.. holler at your exclusives boys, we’ll help you out!

RICHIE FTW!

knowrichieboxjam.jpg

my fam at neglected truth

, along with denial, and genre are putting together something you should be clearing your schedule for right now. saturday, april 12th they’re throwing another box jam, but this is the real deal. in honor of Richie Stefanacci. a local little ripper who i fortunately got to meet and skate with before he passed away way too early from Ewing Sarcoma (rare, pediatric cancer). his pops put together a foundation, and we’re going to celebrate Richie and raise some money for the foundation.

come out and skate with me, the denial and genre family, brian shima (who’s flying in from cali just for this!) and about a million other kids from be-mag who know what’s up!

i wanna see you out there!… come out, buy some goods (all sales from the day go to the fund, so it’s THAT easy to donate) and i’ll put your pic up on here.

for more info, holler at these websites:

the 60 minute man…

Undefeated and UBIQ t-shirts hit the market today. i’m super proud of this. seeing your idea manifest is crazy when it’s on this scale. i never thought i’d be able to work with those guys. also… check out some info on chuck bednarik (the guy on the tee)… the dude was insane, and they certainly don’t make players like that anymore.. if you’re into it, you can pick up the tees here

on the ubiq site. big thanks to eddie and pete for helping make this a reality.

ONE 7

and in rolling down crazy stuff news… check out brian shima on the cover of the new ONE magazine. (issue 7 if you’re keeping track). pretty crazy. i’m into it.

check out the shima interview, some windy city riot coverage, a review of the razors video, along with the usual monthly features. pick up a copy when you get a chance. support rollerblading media.

cue the sabbath….

ironman.jpg

i randomly flipped past MTV last night while i was putting the Hills on, and saw the Ironman trailer. the apple site has it up now. the black sabbath seems a little over the top.. but so does the idea of a crazy rich dude flying around in a suit.
ironman trailer.

that's awesome!…. sorta.

iPOD Touch, thinner than the iPhone, definitely cooler than the old ones… 16 GIGs!?!?! STEVE?!? For $399? that’s a slap in the face. Full coverage at engadget on today’s press event. the nano’s are kinda dope.
