You know Greg Hunt from all his amazing skateboarding videos. But some people don’t. That’s why Leica’s Let Us Roam project is helping to get the word out. Like this:
Greg Hunt is a director and cinematographer that has shot some of the most influential skateboarding films of our time. He discovered photography and filmmaking while he was a pro skateboarder for Stereo Skateboards. After the making of the film “A Visual Sound”, he knew he wanted to buy a 16mm film camera. This purchase pushed him to take cinematography seriously and he’s never put the camera down since. Greg is now shooting the very first Vans skateboarding film and is in his final year of production. This film follows his path from skateboarder to filmmaker and offers a peek into his filmmaking process behind the Vans skate film.
Pretty good, huh?

Tony Hawk previews his new Shred Session “endless runner” game on the iPhone for Arcade Sushi.
Based on what Mr. 900 has said, Shred Session is going to be a free-to-play endless runner. The game will be vertically-oriented, so you will be using one-handed swipe gestures and perfectly timed taps to ollie, grind and land. The game will offer five different levels and six famous skaters to play as, including Tony Hawk, Chris Cole, Aaron Homoki, Lizzie Armanto, David Gonzalez and Tony’s prodigious son, Riley Hawk.
Free to play? We’re on it. Downloads for iOS and Android going live this summer.

We just can’t stop smiling every time we see the Yoda Aloha print. Vans has hooked up an official license with Star Wars and they didn’t slack on the project at all. They’ve got a six-piece Classics collection featuring Boba Fett, Stormtroopers, Darth Vader, and the Death Star and another set from Vault.
Vans takes off to a galaxy far, far away for an out-of-this-world collection featuring artwork from the original Star Wars trilogy. The Force is strong in this intergalactic offering that extends from Classics and Vault by Vans footwear to men’s apparel and women’s accessories. By combining heritage Vans prints with iconic Star Wars characters, both entities present a truly unique capsule this universe has never seen before.
