KEVIN ROMAR OFFICIALLY ON FILAMENT BRAND



          Just a week or so after posting a picture of Filament brand shoes on his Instagram page, Kevin Romar officially joins the team. The announcement comes with a short introduction clip of a few tricks he and the Filament filmer put together. Kevin gets a perfect nollie inward heel rewind on the famous 9 stair in Santa Monica to end it off. With such a short intro clip, we should expect more footage soon.

BASTIEN SALABANZI AT THE DIAMOND PLAZA!




          Bastien rips the new Diamond Plaza in this new clip from Street League Skateboarding. He's still got all the full cab and double flip variations that earned him his fame early on in his career. Looks like he learned a new one too, with a perfect double flip backlip to fakie at (0:37). Don't call it a comeback. Congrats to Primitive's newest pro, Bastien Salabanzi!

ANTONIO DURAO FIRING LINE!



          Antonio continues the Firing Line segment on Thrasher with a perfect string of tricks. Unlike most people who only do one flat trick between the stairs and rail at this spot, Antonio does two before popping into a high switch lipslide. Back in September, the 18 year old placed third in the finals and third in best trick at the NYC Damn Am. Being a standout in the New York City skate scene, Antonio now rides for Girl, Nike, and of course Supreme.

RYAN DECENZO CRUISES HUNTINGTON BEACH!

         

          In the newest addition to the "A to B" segment from Ride Channel, Ryan Decenzo cruises around Huntington Beach. Starting from his little backyard skatepark, Ryan skates through the town, leaving no ledge or firehydrant un-skated. The Canadian does a high switch tailslide at 0:50 then continues his line with a barrage of flatground tricks. A to B had proven one of Ride's most popular series, filmed and edited by Colin H. Clark.

KEVIN ROMAR FOR FILAMENT?


          Its been only a month or so since Kevin Romar officially left the Supra team along with Nick Tucker. Kevin posted this photo on his Instagram recently, maybe hinting at a new sponsorship. Filament is a relatively new brand, but is under great management by DVS co-founder Tim Gavin. With little over a year in operation, Filament brand has added team members rather meticulously. Kevin just might be next to join the squad.

CYRIL JACKSON IS PRO!

 
   
          Since joining the Baker Boys in 2011, Cyril Jackson has earned his spot as one of the most talked about amateurs, until today. The former 1031 rider was given his own pro model Baker board just a few hours ago. Before joining Baker, Cyril had put out quite a few VX parts, earning Youtube props for his unique style. The Boss himself didn't sleep on Cyril's potential as the 1031 brand began to dwindle, promptly adding him to the team roster. Since then, the Ohio native has become a familiar face in the Skate Tank and even earned a shoe collaboration with DC. With one of the more talked about parts in the Bake and Destroy video, Cyril talent's have finally payed off.

TREVOR COLDEN IN DOWNTOWN LA!

       



          A few hours ago the official Youtube of Street League posted a two minute clip of one of the contest's fan favorites, Trevor Colden, cruising the streets of Los Angeles. This segment is easily relatable to anyone who has skated a large city as Colden stops to listen to the tunes of a street drummer and is teased by security (still got the hardflip though). It's definitely refreshing to see Street League post something other than Nyjah highlights on their page. The League's 5th year begins this May.
