Just stumbled over this little gem during my travels through the numerous labyrinths of the vast internet and i thought it should be shared. Leo Romero once again shines as a skater, and big ups to rvca for putting together this little video. Plus this will get all of you skaters out there pumped to see leos part in the upcoming EMERICA video, Stay Gold. Enjoy.

Omar Salazar’s first signature shoe from Nike SB has dropped and it’s a doozy.  This clean little space boot has all of the amenities of current technology, as well as some from 2001:  A Space Odyssey . . . wait, now my brain just hurts.

The Salazar, for all intents and purposes, looks beefy enough to withstand just about anything you can throw at it.  An extra large stash pocket (think old Muska shoe stash pockets) enable you to conceal whatever prized goods you may be toting, and the lightweight cupsole melds with Nike’s foam and phylon footbeds for a bouncy, comfortable step.   The shoe may not look as appealing on the shelf, but ultimately, once you get it on, it’s comfortable and looks pretty aces under some jeans.

The word on the street is that Omar has been absolutely annihilating stuff in his new kicks, and Nike recently released a mini-site devoted entirely to the space-age footwear.  For those of you who are dying to try a pair, SkateDaily will be giving away 5 free pairs in their latest contest.  Follow the link for more details:  [SkateDaily]

TrendRobot is a crew of avid, AMATEUR photographers.  We’re also a team of avid, AMATEUR skateboarders (if even that).  Atiba Jefferson has reached legend status in all of the above.

Doing photo work for the NBA, Transworld Skate, The Skateboard Mag and many other, extremely credible outlets, Atiba Jefferson has reached a level that photogs can only dream of attaining.  Capturing moments from Koston, Reynolds, Carroll, and even Kobe and Shaq, not many people know that Atiba had humble beginnings nestled in the cove of Colorado Springs, CO.  He even worked at BC Surf & Sport in the Springs area.

Atiba has launched his own photo/portfolio site with images from his illustrious career.  Please, just don’t ask him to do your wedding . . .[Atibaphoto]
