We’re going to be adding a lot of new videos to our YouTube channel here in the next few weeks, so if you have a YouTube account(which I’m sure almost all of you do), then head on over to http://www.youtube.com/affinityskateboards and subscribe to our videos.

I finally decided to get a bike and I decided on the Verde Cadet. I bought it at The Flow Skatepark the other day, and I must say that I absolutely love it. I’ve been cruising around on it. Having rode a skateboard for almost 9 years and rarely touching a bike during that time, it took a little time to get used to. Since buying it however, I think that I’ve actually rode it the least out of anyone. Anytime I set it down, someone wants to “ride it really quick”, which ends up turning into an hour long session. I don’t mind though, because I just ride my board(which I really should be doing anyways since Dew Tour is quickly approaching).

I would highly recommend this bike to anyone that is considering a new brakeless bike.

The Flow Skatepark’s first ever Lock-in was yesterday and I must say that it was a blast. Free pizza, great skating and of course let’s not forget the ton’s of free Red Bull.

I arrived at The Flow around 4:30 PM to help out Shannon and James with getting everything prepared. The Lock-in didn’t start until aroud 10:30pm but this was still not enough time to get everything organized. Sweeping the floors, cleaning the bathrooms and ordering the more than 30 pizzas were just a few of the items on the list.

When it was finally time to open, I took it upon myself to be in charge of accepting the money and giving out helmets(which were in short supply and were quickly gone). Loads of people began to pour in immediately, and continued to do so for well over an hour.

After a couple of hours of accepting money, giving out change, handing out candy and drinks, and even gripping a deck or two, I decided to go out and check out what was going on in the park. There was so much going on all at once, it was kind of like being at a contest where everyone’s trying to get as many runs in as possible. Devon got a ton of photos from the event and I’ve included a vast majority of them below. The Flow is planning another Lock-in in the near future, so if you didn’t make it out for the first one, be sure not to miss the next one. I’ll be sure to post the details when I find out more from The Flow.
