Gangstore site down.

The Gangstore website has been down for the past 3 days, which could be an indication of many things. Although this is all speculation, we may see an updated website, a closing of the online shop, or something completely different. If anyone has knowledge as to why the website has been down, please contact Soulassassin___2003@hotmail.com. I personally hope we do not see another Canadian web-store bite the dust, as it would be another great loss, but again this is all speculation. In any case, I hope fellow Canadian rollers are supporting their local shops.

N.D

***NOTE After reciving word from Dale Phillips, I was assured Gangstore isn’t going anywhere, which is damn good news for me. A new website is in the works, which is even better news for me and all of Canadian rolling. Thanks alot man****

Rumors,Sections and blogging…for credit.

Blowakilo from the Be-Mag messageboard has recently posted up many link to many skates sections. The post entitled “here you go…you can thank me later” has links to about 100, maybe a little less maybe a little more, section. These sections include Louie Zamora’s classic VG 14 section, Jeff Stockwell’s Killer boots section, Richie Eisler’s Hashassins section, Chris Haffey’s War section, Dustin Latimer’s Words section and that’s only to name a select few. You can find the link HERE. It’s deffinetly worth the look.

Rollerwarehouse also is present in industry news because of their new “write a blog for store credit” Idea. Basically the idea is self-exclamatory, you write a blog under their specifications, which can he found HERE, and you get a store credit for 10 Rollerwarehouse dollars a blog. It’s and interesting concept, I am going to like to see if this is successful and if other shops will adopt it.

Lastly, the Razor Skate website has made some referance to the much coveted Brian Aragon Skate. If you go to the team page and look at Brent hicks’s profile it will say he is riding on the Aragon Prototype Soul Plate…on his G5’s this would indicate that the new soul system should be interchangeable between the mold now and the possible new mold of the new skates, Or maybe the Aragon’s will only have changed souls. Only time will tell. Check that out HERE.
