We would like to welcome Hector to the team. We look forward to a sick future with him!
While we are on the topic, We might as well show the full page he got in the new Mundo Rad.
Why stop there… here are a few more photos of Hector ripping.
I know a lot of you are going to say… “if I lived in PR and shot with Chad every day I could get a photo in rad too” Well here is what we have to say to that… You can! Get your lazy ass down there and stop procrastinating! Thanks to Chad Oakley for sending over those photos.

The second day here jet leg had worn off but Mark Nickles had other plans for me instead of skating. He wanted me to do something very European so we went to a soocer game. It was Berlin against Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg is two hours from Berlin and the home of VW cars. The game winded up being tied 2 to 2 and then just ended which I found strange, but I will tell you this these people have pride in their team. Every time Berlin would score it turned into a huge party. Not a bad second day here I can’t to see what’s next.
We woke up at a decent time (I guess in the skateboard world) and I got to try some German coffee it’s a little stronger than home.Walking to get breakfast a saw a 12 foot wide tin vert ramp that looks more of a sliding board than a ramp. The first spot we went to was this buttery ass bank under a parking garage but after about 2omins we got the boot (somethings never change no mater where you are). We decided to check out this crazy cement mini that was between two buildings and that you need to know someone to skate. In the middle of the flat was a bullseye and if you fell in it you had to buy everyone skating a beer, lucky for me I just missed the bullseye. I saw more of the Berlin wall today and started to trip out that East and West Berlin were joined together less than 19 years ago. That night we headed out for a real German dinner and some beer.
You can get lost for hours checking out all the sights and cool things. Yesterday was an all out mission. We took trains, trolleys, skateboards and even our chevro-legs to get everywhere. We skated some really cool spots and got kicked out of everywhere. The police got really mad at a train station where we were skating and wanted our passports. They were nice and let us go after a few. They even said they like skateboarding but someone called in. (I hear that all the time)We’ve met all sorts of skaters from everywhere at Stalin. There are some really talented skaters shredding up the place all hours of the day. From what I hear Stalin Square wont be around for long.. Too bad, it’s a fun place to hang out and skate all day long. I stitched together a photo of the main area.

Surfer Magazine is on its Crash The Coast Tour. A couple of the online editors are traveling through 14 states in 14 days on the east coast to get a behind the scene look at the local scene. Just so happened They met up with Shea in Smyrna and again in Hatteras…. SHEA IS AN INTERNET SLUT! Attached are some photos of their trip. Word on the street up here in Jerz is that they are stopping by the ERGO office to meet up with 3rd Generation Jenks Local and ERGO’S own Chief in Charge of Nothing, Jeff Beverly to show them around. Stay tuned for updates of their NJ stop.

This photo showed up on Surfline yesterday of Ezekiel’s east coast shreda, Clay Pollioni wearing an ERGO suit. Clay’s brother Albert rides for us and he probably threw it on because it was his 5th session of the day and it was the only dry suit in his truck. Hey Clay… if you want to get on buddy, come see us… We will even give you a suit. Also attached is a barrel sequence of Albert at Pipe last year. Shot by Tupat.

Hey everyone… boys and girls.
Well I had this idea to start writing a journal about where I’ve been… and all my travels for a while. Since ERGO has this new blog, I thought to myself… maybe I’ll write a blog entry every couple weeks. So I emailed Pete (Pete Disprito… he’s the man at ERGO, if you ever need to get shit done, just ask him… He’ll sort you out!). He was like…. Lets do it! So we here we are 2 weeks into it. I haven’t made an entry yet but this is the first one. Its called Wes’s Briefcase. Its basically about me. No, no. I’m just kidding. As you may or may not know I travel all year doing the WQS. (World Qualifying Series for you guys not in the know) and that’s what this blog is all about. All the shit that happens on tour… The up’s, the downs ,the winning ,the losing and pretty much anything you can think of. So, with that being said………. Enjoy!
There’s so much that goes down on tour that mags, videos or the internet doesn’t cover. And those things are…. well I honestly have no idea because there’s live web cast all year at most of the events, so if you haven’t been watching then turn on your lappy tomorrow and find out when the next event is. Now that’s taken care of. … Europe is always a make or break leg for the guys on the QS, there are so many events back to back and all of them are 5 and 6 stars. This leg of the tour really starts in Huntington Beach. If you are unfortunate enough to be for HB then this part of the leg doesn’t really apply to you. But we are gone from around July 20th till Sep 15th, and usually with the same crew that you have been with all year long. Every year by the end of the leg you hear some pretty good stories about guys wanting to rip each other heads off. Think about 7 weeks with the same people…. you would feel the same way…. Anyways from Cali we go to Japan and form Japan to France from France to Portugal and finally when your bank account gets to zero you will find your self spending the last 2 weeks on tour in Spain.
So there you have it, that sums up the European leg of the WQS , Most of the boys I’m with at the moment have not done that good this year except for 2, Dion atkins who finished second in Lacanau and Shaun Gossman who made quarters in Japan and = ninth in Hossoger.( big ups to Goz, U better fucking Qualify this year cozzy.) We are still not done yet with the Europe leg but with only one contest left I’d figure I’d go ahead and right the entry. (The…

They both forgot their boards at the house and had to borrow setups to get a few tricks. How is Freddie Tan’s style???? (white tee long hair backwards hat)… that kid is legit. Thanks to MESH for throwing another great event.
