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.

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.
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.
!!! 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.
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.
“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.
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!
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!
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:

!! it just so happens that my favorite rollerblader is on the cover of my favorite rollerblading magazine this issue. check out their last issue at their site in PDF form if you haven’t already. or subscribe. or subscribe and buy a t-shirt too.
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.
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.
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.
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.
wondering what you’ll be doing in the evenings this coming winter in early 08? if you’re like me.. you’ll probably be enjoying the fight of your life with this disturbing, quasi animal group of bad guys. kojima-san has given us a glimpse into the metal gear bosses… read on for more on his press conference today and the new trailer…
link comes from our boy stu. viral sites are rad.
the absurdly awesome, painfully brilliant madman is on the loose again. what an awesome idea, and perfect excuse to make a ton of home movie versions of your favorite movies. check out the trailer for his newest movie Be Kind Rewind at yahoo trailers. its looking a little more accesible than Science of Sleep was. it’ll rule hard.
michel.. i love you, i want you to come design my next store. call me.
let’s talk skateboarding retarded stunts for a hot minute here. having filmed a good percentage of the better rollerblading that’s come out of philadelphia, i’ve seen my fair share of bad falls, including xgames stuff. NOTHING compares to this. how this dude walked away is beyond me.. it looks like his spine/tailbone shouldve shattered if you ask me.
craze. gettin “that tony hawk money” seems totally worth it!
**VIDEO LINK FIXED!
if you were watching good morning america this morning, or read the NY Times yesterday, you might have heard about the “new” Today Sponge, and how it’s coming back to retail after an absence from store shelves with all new packaging. packaging and branding courtesy of the LOVELY Jillian Doran, who some of you may also know as my rad girlfriend.
i had to pinch this from sky’s riottt blog. i first saw the cad line sheets for the nike tech pack a good 2 or 3 months ago. a good friend of mine will have the line at his shop this fall, and when i saw these real pics of the goods yesterday, i had to share them here.
