Henry Evans

Henry is a solid dude.  There are so few solid dudes that it's really rad to get the chance to call it out when it happens.  What's more solid than a master craftsman in a spaghetti Western band? Plus, he once pumped iron for a year in preparation for a one-time-only performance of his Danzig tribute band.  That's called commitment.

Dave Young

Cougar is the best because not only is he the king of DIY, a BMX ripper, and jack-of-all-trades, he also hooks us up when he's bartending at his tiki-sombrero bar Cha Cha Lounge.  Actually, he hooks us up way more like how he's building our new retail space out and breathing toxic fumes, but that's such a big favor we don't like to talk about it too much because it's overwhelming how big we owe him.

Luis Solis
www.oregonskateboards.com
Margot's favorite roulette partner and a budding real estate mogul, Luis was the true gentleman and real friend when he helped us in Vegas at the tradeshows.  Sure he got to gamble and drink all our booze, but a favor's a favor -- can he get a witness?  If you've got kids, send them to his skate camp in Oregon where they can learn to shred and not be a jerk. 

Molly Ackerman-Brimberg
The girl has a long name but it's still not as long as the list of favors she's done for us. This shoe whiz is a one-two punch with both technical prowess and a keen eye.

Rick Charnoski

Rick makes us juice and is a real gentleman. He shreds too but we like him for other reasons. He makes films with Buddy. Watch them and then talk to us about dedication. 

Coan Nichols

Buddy is like our big brother. He's a cool uncle and is the grill master. No BBQ should take place without him at the helm. He's a ripper and makes pretty sick films. But seriously, the BBQ thing is the most important.

Gigi Guerra
Gigi is the ultimate knowledge library. Could her game get any tighter?

Melissa Ip
Melissa is her own deal. She's too hard to explain but what's the point anyway. To know her is to love her.

Ashley Thayer
www.ashleythayer.com
Water woman meets artist, Ashley's lived all over the place and is a great vegan cook. She's always a great sport whenever we're asking for help, whether it be a photo, a dinner, or a board. She likes gurus but she's a guru herself.

Brendan Fowler
www.barrbarr.com
Brendan's so tall that every time he hugs us, we get nothing but armpit. Barr will be coming to a town near you any day now. We got serious love for Brendan and it goes way back. Automine anyone?

Ashley Macomber
www.ashleymacomber.com
Ashley's artwork makes us remember all these beautiful things. She is tough and she is tender. She also lent us her single fin last year which really made the summer.

Jill Nussbaum
Nuss is our lady on the streets. Like the center of a busy hive, this queen bee keeps the info flowing our way. Her man's cool too.

Bella Pilar
www.bellapilar.com
You should be into Bella just because her name is so pretty. It really rolls off the tongue. We like going to her house and seeing all her latest paintings and illustrations.

Wendy Yao
www.oogaboogastore.com
A pillar in our support system, Wendy is a smarty and a fellow business owner. If you haven't checked Ooga Booga in Los Angeles' Chinatown, then you're missing out on one of the few perfect corners in the world. Put something in the tip jar!

Ulrika Löfgren
This Swedish heartbreaker can really cut the rug. She's a great designer and illustrator too, but isn't the Sweden thing what you're really into? Midnight sun dude, midnight sun.

Daniel Rehn
Daniel sweats a lot when he eats spicy food. He reps Sweden hard and the dude's got can control.

Becca Albee
Keep your eyes open for Becca's book, coming out soon. Besides being an artist, this little lady is also a professor, inspiring day dreams in classrooms everywhere.

Deanna Templeton
Deanna takes rad photos and is a real sweet and lovely lady to chat with. She kinda looks Asian, but she's not.

Amy Yao
Amy Yao
Amy operates in a different zone than the rest of us. We expect her to destroy New Haven and the East Coast as she reps the West at Yale and completes her M.F.A.

Steve Bailey
Steve Bailey
Bailey is a legend. Nothing but dedication.

Tobin Yelland
www.tobinyelland.com
If there's a more noble dude than Tobin, we'd like to know. His photos are pure gold. He is our Scorpio bro, Bikram buddy, and meditation guru.

Ray Potes
www.hamburgereyes.com
If you're not on Hambuger Eyes' tip then we don't know what to say. It's infiltrated your lives whether you know it or not. Ray is one of our favorite Filipinos and an ace behind the camera.

Isaac Ramos
www.ramosworldwide.com
There's no one else we'd rather have dominate the world. Everyone would have a cool bike and lots of toys. Isaac is a designer but more of a phenomenon. He runs DoggPony Records with Brendan Fowler.

Jerry Lim
www.plasticenigma.com
Jerry is an ill designer, musician and humorist. Ladies, we're talking serious gem here. Get on that. Jerry also runs Mass Particles with Chuck Bettis and Evan Rapport.
