Why is it that all our young flow riders keep meeting playmates. First it was Alex Midler meeting a Playboy bunny on the plane, and now it’s Zack Saraceno meeting the greatest Playmate of all time, Pamela Anderson.
Don’t get distracted by the beautiful women and stay focused on the skating and repping Force Trucks and Liberty Skate Shop.
Last weekend, Andrew headed out to the east coast for the Autumn Bowl Jam in Brooklyn. While there he made it worth his while taking home 2nd place and skating in ways that only he can.
This is what ESPN’s Adam Salo had to say about Andrew’s skating
“Some highlights from all the skating that went down included… Andrew Langi doing nosegrind pop ins, frontside flips and head high madonnas in the bowl’s 7-foot deep end…”
Andrew really rips, if you haven’t seen this him in real life brace yourself when you do.
Flow rider Travis Glover is getting coverage out on the east coast in Focus Magazine repping Force Trucks and Zoo York. If you’re in Atlanta make sure to check out the woodward skatepark cause you just might get to witness Travis at work.
New team member Paul Trep is already making things happen in our home town of SF, taking 1st at the Library Gap Competition. TM, Justin Williams, headed out there with him to snap some pics and hang out. Check out the video and the pics below.

Andrew won a grip of money at ASR, but despite reports by Transworld it probably won’t be going towards fixing that tooth…
-DVS Demo: Check out Ricky Webb and Carlos Zarazua at a Val Surf Demo in Pedlow Park. Skateboarder magazine has got a slideshow up.
-Draw Langi: For all of you that have been drawing pictures of Andrew Langi lately (weird) now you’ve got a chance to win one of these very limited LRG x Kayo decks.
All you’ve got to do is draw your favorite LRG skateboarder and send the picture to susan@timebomb.bc.ca so of course you’ve already got plenty of drawings of Andrew and now all you’ve got to do is the emailing part.
-Skate & Create: Keep an eye out for the upcoming Skate & Create II. There’s lots of potential Force Trucks riders in there. You might get to see Walker Ryan with C1RCA, Marquise Henry with DC, but I doin’t think that Devine managed to make it out with Etnies, from what I saw on their site. Keep checking back for more info on this event and all the other news as it comes out.
So the Coastal Carnage contest went down recently with a great set up and an even better line up of skaters. Andrew Langi headed down for Coastal Carnage and even though he didn’t place first he effortlessly hit tricks in the bowl that were unlike anything anyone else was trying.
Just check out this nose manny that the guys over at LRG thought deserved best trick.
And I can’t say that I disagree with them.
And then there was this shot of Andrew popping over the extension.
Wow, throwing a kickflip into that transfer, just wow.
He may have finished 12 but if it were up to us we’d knock that 2 off the side.

Another skate camp posting, this time coming from Woodward West and not just any posting but a King of the Groms contest posting. Alex Midler and Enzo (Pharmacy Board Shop rider) both were out repping for Force Trucks, and Enzo took second in the Expert division.
If these guys are groms and skating like this then I wonder what that makes me?
Head over to dcshoes.com and stay updated on what Force Trucks riders Marquise Henry and Kota Ikeda are doing out in Asia. Just click on the photo to head over to their site.
So a couple of weeks ago after “Back to the Berg” we rolled out to Ukiah California. We were rolling deep with 15+ people, 4 cars, 1 photographer, 2 video cameras, 2 team managers, and plenty of bored police officers. A big thank you from Force Trucks goes out to Freedom Skate Shop and owner Justin Capri for letting us crash on the mini ramp and hooking us up with spots in Ukiah. Check out the pictures and captions for the full story of events, and check out the video.
