Just when you thought this section was only videos, here’s some fresh air for you skateboard art collectors; Matt & Mark Owen recently collaborated with Zoo York to design six new skateboard decks for the skate company’s “Artist Series” and these are looking interesting. Sure they aren’t the City Series from Chocolate, or the Photo series from Stereo Skateboards, but come on…these are still worth checking out.
The series takes inspiration from literature in the realms of “Urban” jungle, with a hint of NYC for good measure. Zoo York has definitely been doing quite well in recent times, with a lot of focus on limited edition skateboards and artist collaborations. Here’s the decks, enjoy….

The morning coffee got spilled over here at Seshn HQ when we heard that Eli Reed is now on Zoo York, and will most likely be on the new Zoo York video that’s being filmed right now. Haven’t seen Reed in action? You’re missing out, he’s pretty good, and this is a great addition to the team. Zoo York is starting to come up above the East Coast stigma.

The team over at Fallen Skate Shoes, have recently posted pictures from their latest treks into the unknown. First up they wen to Mexico, and showed the legions of Mexican skateboarders a thing or two about skateboarding, and hooked up a lot of my brethren with some free shoes, which is a huge blessing. In between all that, they hit some spots, met some girls, and documented it all for you.
Just when you thought that was all, Fallen also took a trip to China, where skateboarding is seeing immense growth. Sure, Lakai and Zoo York were already there, but now it was Fallen’s turn to see what they could do in the red country of China.
You can see more photos, and news from the Fallen Skateboarding team’s trip to Mexico & China, by checking out the black box distro website here or the official Fallen website here.

Recently the Lakai footwear crew landed in mainland China, but one thing bugged me about this epic event. The guys from Lakai, coming off of one of the best skateboarding dvd’s ever made, is skateboarding the same spots that Zoo York skated last year, and documented it on video! I’m not trying to start some beef between East Coast Skateboarding and West Coast Skate Shoes, but come on now, can’t we see a team go to China and skate something that hasn’t been skated before? Instead we get the same old spots, same old tricks, but new school mentality. The Lakai team still ripped it, and Slapmagazine.com was along to cover it.
