In celebration of Austin Stephens skateboard career for the bloodsucking skateboard co that is Toy Machine, we thought it would be fun to look back at the Sponsor Me VHS Tape Austin submitted many years ago.

: Austin Stephens' Ads

caca@tumyeto.net (Fare Thee Well...) — Mon, 16 Dec 2013 17:23:02 -0800

This week we are celebrating the skateboard career of Austin Stephens with the release of the Austin Stephens Toy Machine Farewell Deck.

I recall Austin coming to me at the Toy Machine Halloween demo a few years back saying that he didn't think he could do it anymore. And I said, "Do what?" and he said, "Skateboard. My ankle doesn't work anymore." It was a heavy realization, one a skateboarder hates to actually come to grips with. Every skateboarder thrashes their ankles over time, and for Austin, it was just one tear, tweak, twist too many and after loads of procedures and healing time it seemed to be worse than when he started.

I respect a man who is willing to see things as they are and make an honest choice. So it was with great sadness that we retired Austin Stephens, the rider who was on Toy Machine the longest aside from me. -ed templeton

We will be doing a number of blog posts in remembrance of the stylish and graceful time A-Stone spent with Toy Machine. Here, we have a sampling of Austin's Toy Ads...

: Clint Walker: Fully Torqued RV "Top 5" Interview

caca@tumyeto.net (Tyler Culbertson) — Mon, 16 Dec 2013 10:11:44 -0800

Clint Walker and his friends thought it would be rad if they were able stay in cities longer to skate and film while on tour. One RV and a Kickstarter Project gave birth to a yearlong skate trip in said RV. Since the trip has started…spots have been slain, debauchery commenced and madness ensued. Thankfully all has been documented on their Ride Channel Show, The Fully Torqued RV Tour.
To celebrate this epic journey, Clint is getting his first pro wheel for PIG! We caught up with Clint and got his thoughts in Top 5 Interview about their RV Tour.
