Journeys Backyard BBQ Photos
by: Alex | Thursday, May 15, 2008
Last Saturday was our day in Dallas and it was a hot one! Lucky for those Texans, the triple digit heat and scorching sun didn't stop the etnies team from heating things up even more at the Journeys Backyard BBQ.
Lauren, Eric and Kyle all love media interviews at 7am... especially when the interview is with this guy.
Texas is Eric Fletcher's favorite state.
Kyle Leeper still likes squirrels.
The ladies love Ryan Sheckler.
While dodging Sheckler fans' panties, Morgan Wade fires out one of his trademark high and mighty flairs.

by: Alex | Tuesday, May 6, 2008
The opening exhibition of A Rolling Perspective, presented by etnies and Color Magazine, went off without a hitch. And the ensuing after party at The Sweatshop likewise went off. The show is a collection of self portraits by skaters from all over, including our man Mikey Taylor. Check out the ginormous photo gallery to see what you missed out on. All photos by Ian Jolin-Rasmussen and Color Magazine.
etnies & R Newbold

R. Newbold is your Newbold... that is, if you live in Japan.
Inspired by British summer music festivals and available only in Japan, the etnies & R. Newbold Collaboration is limited edition fashion at its finest. The collection's allover Sunglasses print adds distinct, shady style to the etnies Jameson and El-Jefe II.
Fun, fresh and sure to go fast, this just might be all you get to see of these puppies.
Check out the buzz...

etnies and Color Magazine asked skaters to shoot a photo of themselves from their own rolling perspective. Over 200 portraits have been collected from skaters across Canada, the United States and as far as Japan, including etnies' own Mikey Taylor. With the help of Fourstar Clothing, a selection of these self-portraits of pro skateboarders, artists, and other talented individuals have been composed into an exhibition in celebration of skateboarding.
The show has been broken into a three-part art crawl (or roll) traveling across the country during the next six months from Vancouver (BC) to Montreal (QC) with stops in Winnipeg (MB), Calgary (AB) and Toronto (ON). Opening receptions in each of these cities take place in separate spaces at different times. Attendees are encouraged to take their cruiser boards out from under their beds or wherever they’ve been stored all winter and celebrate the freedom of skateboarding and embrace the roll from spot to spot.
