i don't know how often you guys check the news feeder on the homepage, but i posted some topics yesterday and today that i haven't seen talked about on the boards and you might want to check out- the debut of a new Hi-Fi wheels video today at noon PST on their site, also including a new Ben Gore part; at Matix a mini-interview with Mike Anderson and a contest to win a Manderson package with clothes, shoes, boards and more, plus a new video from a Matix Europe tour; episode 6 of the Guy Mariano Epicly Laterds, and a bunch of other stuff . I'm not trying to call attention to these specifically, just letting you know there's usually some links like this on the home page so you might want to check there regularly...

That's one thing great about the mag being online, right now I have Caswell lien disaster as mine.

Thanks for the heads up whiteley - that Hi-Fi promo was fuckin amazing, so I'm glad you reminded us about the vid!

cool.
and speaking of backgrounds, we just added a section on the home page (up in the slider/feature section) called Wallpapers where you can download photos to be backgrounds on your computer. sounds like you guys know how already, but this makes it easy...

I'm looking forward to that HiFi video.  It says something about a full length promo.  If it's a promo... how can it be full length?

Ah... I didn't think about it that way.  What about something like Two World Industries Men or Tim and Henry's Pack of Lies?  Those weren't full length vids but they were for sale.

I hope a couple DVD copies are floating around.  I hate watching 16 minutes of footage on my computer.

were the two world men/tim&henry vids actually called promos? can't recall for sure although i think they were. good point.
i'd guess they'll make some dvds, but watching on the computer was easy. it's good quality, not pixeled out.

Describing "Am" to non-skateboarders is really frustrating.

Especially since a lot of Ams get money not just product. I think in most sports once you get a paycheck you're considered professional.
