We just got a crapload of snow, and it’s going to make for some serious shredding, and there’s lots of season left. Good thing all the snow gear is now 25% OFF!

Hit up Martock after the roads get clear, it should be amazing! Or even Citadel Hill or the skatepark. See you on the slopes!

Posted by uptown On January - 29 - 2010

Hey that was a nice couple days there eh, we got a little skate window.

WeSC, Saucy sounds for your ears

Posted by uptown On November - 26 - 2009

Some weird pictures, of really good headphones. I don’t really know much about driver size and decibels and noise cancellation, but to me, these sound really good. They’re really comfortable, and they come in some pretty regular solid colours. (Thanks Sauce!)

I went to Cuba about 10 years ago and brought back some maracas just like these for souvenirs,

These headphones are also called the Maraca. True story.

Snow gear like whoa!

Posted by uptown On November - 16 - 2009

It snowed once, and it will again. We’re getting lucky with a couple weeks of sunny warm weather so we can still skate, but winter is definitely coming. So get your shite together, you need a new something or other!

Here’s a quick overview of a bunch of the gear we have in.

Snowboards from Salomon, Rome, TechNine, Capita, DC, Forum, Ride, and Burton.

Bling, Bling we’ve got the Crystals in!

Posted by progirl On November - 9 - 2009

In honor of the holiday season, we just received some NEW Nixon watches!

For Holiday 09 Nixon decided to make the usual arm candy a tad bit more brilliant. They have selected a few of the most popular watches, and added lots and lots of  real Swarovski crystals and mother of pearl for some beautifully elegant additions to the line.

But if you’re not into bling, we’ve got some that are a little more low-key, but still fun to look at! The case is very full, so hurry in and get your first pick.

Christmas is coming faster then we like to admit… make sure you get that perfect gift!

New Carpet at Pro

Posted by uptown On October - 14 - 2009

Nope. We’ve been wanting new carpet or flooring for quite a while, but we kinda just haven’t done it, for whatever reason. Laziness, no money, laziness, whatever. The other day I saw this van and guys loading shit into one of the pizza joints. I thought damn, even one of the pizza places is getting new carpet? Carpet in a pizza place?! Nope, that’s donair meat. This van was full of perfectly formed rolls of donair meatiness. It seriously looked like little rolls of carpet or underlay.

It might seem gross, but the bags were clean, and the van was clean and refrigerated. And donairs are delicious, we all know it.

Only on pizza corner.

Guess what? We’ve got it! Nixon in NYLON Magazine

Posted by progirl On October - 14 - 2009

I was looking through my new issue of NYLON magazine for this month, and guess what I saw? A Nixon Time Teller Plastic! We’ve got these watches instore and a bunch more on the way!  The Time Teller plastic is a newer unisex watch that Nixon brought out this year. With the same quality as all other Nixon’s and the same 2 year warranty, you can’t go wrong.  They come in so many different colours, and they’re so affordable (they’re only $75 bucks!) that you can justify having more then one…. ;)
