 Sunday skate missions have been the hi-lite of the last few weeks, rolling a few cars deep with homies every time. Big thanks to Matt Day for being a great spot guide, and stomping the hell out of a San Diego classic trick that would make T-Bone proud (above). More documentation of Sunday recreation to come in the following weeks. Keep that Plaza pillar warm for me - DTZ

  The annual Red Telephone staff trip for one to the southern States kicked in early this year, with Oceanside, California as the destination. Essential documentation as per Red-Tel guidelines has been commenced with positive results. More to come in the following months. Send my best to Gypsy........   DTZ

The G9 SUMMIT PROMO

 At long last, a sneak peak of some footage from the upcoming G9 SUMMIT - a video filmed entirely on a Canon G9 Powershot which was surprisingly Century MK1 fishbowl adaptable, over the course of 4 years. Random clips from Vancouver, Arizona, California and New York will be ghetto wedded in digital bliss for your viewing pleasure this spring ! For now, enjoy a taste of the video that accompanies many past Red Telephone articles..... seize the Derf !

Koston on Koston - Confirmed

  During my time working in skateboard distribution I've received plenty of hilarious solicitor emails from China, always trying to sell us things they think we would be interested in like "Many respectfuls scooter assembly", or "Skater bareing of all professional abec specify".... but this catalogue that showed up today in a box with some random stuff from China has to be the cream of the crop. 

  It's no secret that bootlegging/ripping off every brand under the sun is a huge industry in China, but this one is so blatant that it might make you question the effectiveness of trademark laws all together. Koston Skateboards. Yup. You read it right. It's probably safe to assume ol' Frosty has nothing to do with this, even though it's clear that the brand is trying to give it's customers that impression... 

 .... oh wait... what's this ? Some info about the company ? Do tell.......

  Ohhhhhhh, it means Knights of Skateboard... Ton. That makes sense. It's just a coincidence after all. Although, I'm not sure how "original design" it is to use one of the world's most famous skateboarder's name as the name for your brand.... maybe Mr.Paul Skateboards would have been better ? Then again, this is a brand for professionals.... and the logo is solid. Something oddly familiar about that font.....

  At least they're not heavily relying on Eric's name in their product artwork.....  and Koston is a Clippers guy, right ?

  

  There's no way Independent would be able to argue that this is a bite of their truck, it looks completely different !

  If Mr. Paul and Wang knew the reason for the logo placement, they probably wouldn't have put it on a longboard truck. Speaking of......

  Rasta Native longboards, coming to a political correctness internet discussion near you !

  

  Fiendish Mr. Paul, you done f#@ked up now. Tod Swank is gonna run a Big Brother ad with all of your team riders in it next month !

   So there you have it, the many impressives Koston Skateboard manufacture. They look forward to happily business dealings with you at exclusive wholesale price this future ! 

  Turns out Wang is a huge Keelan Dadd fan and wouldn't get on board with the brand unless they did a deck "similar" to whatever brand it is the Switch God rides for.... can't remember the name........... POW !
