IASC Skateboard Summit 2009

2009SummitWondering why your favorite skateboard industry head isn’t returning your calls today? They’re all holed up at Woodward West from April 1-3, 2009 skating the parks, drinking, and sitting in rooms listening to themselves talk at the Skateboarding Industry Summit 2009.

“So, how many people did you guys lay off last week? Really? That’s nothing. We gutted the entire finance department. No sales, no accounting. I heard you’re using a new paint on your boards. How’s that working for you? Phht: Twitter, yeah, I’m taken a dump right now world isn’t that cool? Don’t you wish more people were buying our boards. Maybe a prayer group would work. And how! Nike sure does suck. We’re focusing all our marketing efforts on social media this year. Social what? Did you enjoy your Woodward palace last night? Oh, shhhhh, here comes that guy from Converse. So what exactly are PR people supposed to do?”

Sounds like fun, huh?

“So what exactly are PR people supposed to do?”

Love it. I get that a lot.

“Twitter, yeah, I’m taken a dump right now world isn’t that cool?”

Could be the best or most mundane too ever, depending on who’s using it.
