New Empir3 Distribution Website

I am not going to lie, I have not checked the Empir3 website in a while, simply because they were not updating at all. However, I happened to drop by the site and saw that it has been completely remodeled and it looks great, plus there is a ton of new content on it. I will try to go through each of the new features below.

Blogs

Empir3 now has comprehensive blogs from Azikiwee Anderson, Darren Treinen, and Kevin Yee… plus someone who is “coming soon” The blogs area good read and give you some great information and pictures. You can check out the blogs HERE.

Media

The media section has four separate sections photo, video, words, and miscellaneous. The photo category has a few new ads and pictures that people may have not seen. such as the one below. Also, you can check out the spring / summer line of the new Able, Heat and D-Structure clothing in the Miscellaneous section. If you want to check out the media section go HERE.

Spring Winter Lines Examples

Able

Heat

D-Strucure

Web Store

They even have a webstore with some great deals on Able and Heat clothing

About Section

This is what is on their about section, plus a list of the products they provide.

Empire Distribution is your rollerblading root. We represent the very core of what you do and the reasons you do it. We hook up your local skate shops, skate parks, competitions, professional skaters, and you, the kid next door with functional products that are always on the cutting edge of rollerblading.

How do we do this? Well, it helps if the company is owned and operated by rollerbladers and true lovers of the sport. Let’s face it, how can you really know what it takes to make a quality product unless you’ve spent a session with your friends trying to nail a huge gap only to have your frames snap or your wheels explode or decore? You’ve heard it before, but maybe not realized how true it is, experience goes a LOOOONG way. You can run machined “tests” on gear all day long, but at the end of the day, pure experience will teach you more then a machine ever could. Empire Distribution provides products that your industry demands.

We call it “your industry” because that’s what it is. It might seem funny if you’ve never stopped to think about it, but by purchasing quality products (such as those distributed by Empire) made by people who stand behind the rolling industry, you are doing your part in supporting rollerblading’s future and ensuring that the path you have chosen has no end in sight. We stand behind every product we make and sell 100% and have nothing but rollerblading’s best intentions in mind.

If you are on this Web site, then you care about rollerblading and want to help to make it stronger than it’s ever been and for that, we thank you. Without “you” there is no “us.”

Alright so I have shown you some of whats new on the website, if you want to see the rest then go explore it for yourself at http://empir3.com/home.php

Gonzo Kizer Fluid Frame

The Conference website just put up this ad showing the Gonzo frame. I personally love Kizer fluid frames, and I think they are the work horse of the skate industry. Honestly, if you want a long lasting frame that will not wear down significantly in a few months, pick up Kizer Fluid 3s. Oh, and I am digging the ad as well!
