ASR 09: It’s Smaller But It’s Good

by The Editors on January 22, 2009

Overview

We’re not saying that this is all of the January ASR Show, but it certainly is most of it. The space felt really small, but the mood was actually up considering the economy. It may not look like it, but there were quite a few people in the isles.

Mitchie Brusco, 11, and 9-year-old Tom Schaar were slaying the indoor Megaramp and making everyone who skates feel really, really old. We were scared just standing on the drop in.

The Berrimetric Pressure is rising: Steve Berra and Jason King spreading the Berric’s message. With four million unique visitors last month they are far and away the largest skateboarding website in the world. Crazy, huh?

When Steve Van Doren wasn’t on the heckle program he was making these tasty waffle soles. Best food at the show.

We have to give Volcom an A for keeping the dream alive. This year’s flavor. . . Cracker Heaven.

Looks like you got a shot of the Volcom booth between Hee-Haw shows. During a show it was packed with off-key musicians playing banjos and people tossing toilet seats. It was a bit hard to see how that related to action sports, but it was fun.

And why aren’t the Van’s waffles in the shape of a shoe?

I know Julie and Milo. I’m good friends with their daughter. They last name is Myers not Meyers.
