K2 Hood House Open For Business

Spencer — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 17:43:00 +0000

If my name was Todd Bracher I would move to Government Camp for the summer and ski everyday. Since I would only be able to ski in the mornings, it would only be natural to follow my heart and publish the days events on some sort of new media outlet. I would feel responsible to K2, and the world to express why the K2 Hood House is so awesome and such a great use of funds in these hard economic times. Well, my name is Spencer not Todd so I can only imagine what it must be like to live the life of T-Money Bracher. I guess we will read the words from this master of disaster and live through him not with him. Read the Words of Todd

Spencer — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 16:34:57 +0000

NIke 6.0 StinkWeen Braata Shoes: Welcome to a world of vibrant color and madcap illustration, where shoe soles double as art canvases and seemingly subtle details glow electric-green in the dark. Nike 6.0 joined forces with prolific street artist Mark Paul Deren (a.k.a. Madsteez) to create something fresh and visually groundbreaking. The result? The Nike 6.0 StinkWeen Braata. The Nike Braata translates this wonderfully weird vision with easy-wearing innovation. Built with Nike Free technology, the Braata’s uber-flex allows the foot to follow its natural movements and provides unprecedented board-feel that’s tempered with support in all the right places. The Braata’s cold-wrap construction process reduces environmental impact and also allows the insert of a cushioned midsole, differentiating it from traditional vulcanized shoes.
