Dana Ericson appreciation
« on: May 28, 2012, 03:41:13 PM »
What can you say about Dana Ericson? Casual style, no hype no glory, just skateboarding that is clean, as well as raw and pure; street, park, vert (?), mini ramp champ. He?ll skateboard any time, any place, and in any condition. He is the definition of east coast skateboarding at its finest. Ed Driscoll is Dana?s boss at Commonwealth Liquors. He skates the Hellgate ramp better than most. He has a custom grill, but will never rock it in public. He can skate a Zip Zinger in running shoes while carrying his work clothes in a plastic bag and slaughter any spot. He?s been a skate shop grom for almost fifteen years now. In his youth, Dana once asked how to get sponsored.  He was told to just shut up and skateboard. That is what he did, and that is what he does. Best thing about Dana, He has respect for skateboarding. - Chris Rice
Dana Ericson has been a strong supporter of the RAW brand for several years. The work he has put in with us on and off a skateboard has been vital to our growth. He's done everything from traveling to skateboard events on our behalf to estimating and painting our entire space at 622 Somerville Avenue. - S.C. K.S.

Dana is so sick. But videos don't quite do his skating justice, you gotta see that shit in person to understand how crazy that dude's technique is.

Agreed.  One of the nicest humblest dudes you'd ever meet as well
Anyone else notice that Tony Parker is the Gino of basketball?
