Stereo In Minnesota: Part 3! Yesterday, the Sound Agents made the journey back home after an amazing week-long stay in the state of 10,000 lakes. The spots we skated throughout our trip were perfect, the art show, signings and demos were a blast, but most importantly, the people we met along the way were incredible! Huge thanks to Clint's mom Karen for letting us stay at her home and making us breakfast. Also, big thanks to 3rd Lair Burnsville, Familia, Cathan and the Vine Arts Center posse, our guide Dana and the entire state of Minnesota. If you ever have a chance to visit, I highly recommend it... except early September, because that's when the Republican National Convention will be taking place. Cheers! !
Stereo In Minnesota: Part 2! On Wednesday we warmed up on some street spots before making it to the 3rd Lair Burnsville demo. The Burnsville park is essentially a skate plaza full of small hubbas, mellow transition, hips, banks and more. Everyone definitely stepped it up at the demo and gave the kids a run for their money. Even Clint's mom and his younger brother Frankie made it out for the show. Yesterday was our day off, so went on a skate mission in Minneapolis and Nesser ended up meeting up with us again. We went to some amazing spots, so check out the photos below to see for yourself. Big thanks to the 3rd Lair Burnsville crew for all of their help and support and stay tuned for more updates... !
WeSC Launch Party Tomorrow ! WeSC is kicking off the release of their Fall/Winter 2008 collection with a launch party tomorrow, Saturday, August 16th. It's definitely not one you'll want to miss! See flyer below for more details. !
Stereo In Minnesota: Part 1! We arrived to Minnesota on Monday night and immediately made our way to Clint's hometown of Stillwater where we were greeted by some of Clint's friends, including London native, Paul Shier. Yesterday, after a night of downtown brews, we went skating in Minneapolis with Steve Nesser. Scattered thunderstorms didn't help too much and by the time we made it to downtown we were being hit by a monsoon. Luckily, we got to skate an indoor garage until some lunatic driving a Mustang kicked us out by threatening to call the cops. The guy threw a water bottle at us as we drove away and that pretty much capped the session. Tonight at 6PM we have the 3rd Lair Burnsville demo and signing. Until next time... !

Clint's Skateboarder Cover and Interview! Yes, it's true! Clint not only has a 14-page interview in the October 08 issue of Skateboarder, but also landed himself the cover with a b/s 50-50 on a gnarly curve-shaped hubba. We at the Agency couldn't be more proud of Clint and urge you to go out and grab a copy of this issue of Skateboarder immediately. Congratulations Agent Q-379! !
