Shaun, We are Proud of You!

We are going to be honest here and say we were more than a little bit bummed when Shaun White didn't get his 3rd Gold medal in a row last night during the Olympics.  To see someone so talented and so driven, fall short of his goal was heartbreaking.  We can only imagine how he is feeling.  Then we saw this article in the Washington Post, and we loved seeing someone else reiterate what we already know about him.  Shaun White is not only an incomparable snowboarder, he is just a good guy.  Being a public figure is not always easy, so an article like this makes us proud to be his friend.  Maybe Sochi hasn't turned out as planned, but that's how it goes sometimes.  We are looking forward to seeing what Shaun has up next, because we are sure it will be incredible.

Good Luck Shaun!

While we have been preoccupied with the beginning of Fashion Week in NYC, we almost missed a chance to post about another huge event that kicked off yesterday.  The WINTER OLYMPICS in Sochi!  As a company that also represents action sports, we are watching closely to see what is going on in the Olympics and we are stoked that Slopestyle is now an olympic event!

We would like to wish our longtime friend, Shaun White, the best of luck this olympics.  Bring home that 3rd Gold Medal in a row for Team USA in the half pipe.  We met Shaun when he came to our party at Sundance a few years ago, and have kept in touch since. Good luck Shaun, make us proud in Sochi, like we know only you can!
