Big Chunk hit us with these photos of Kardinal Offishall on the set of his new music video featuring Clipse, that he must have taken with a 5 year old cellphone while he was drunk and under water. I'm just kidding Chunk, your photography is fire!
You should totally add the new Orisue Skateboarding Myspace page to your list of friends, and totally put us in your top 8 and all that shit. Thanks... You rOoLz.
This past weekend we had our FIRST summer BBQ which featured a couple performances... one of whom was Fashawn. This kid is incredible. He just dropped a nasty mixtape titled "The Phenom 2" featuring songs such as "Never Fall In Love", "Excuses", and "I'll Take Everything." Most of these songs can be found on his Myspace. Anyways... as of now, he's busy working on his NEW album, "BOY MEETS WORLD" exclusively produced by EXILE. He recently leaked this brand new music video, titled F.A.S.H.A.W.N.... Proudly rocking our D-Boy T-shirt. Keep your eye's on this dude.
For those who didn't get a chance to attend our most recent BBQ, I'm posting an insane amount of photos. You can check the skate shenanigan's on our skate blog at www.orisue.com/skate. They just uploaded a video from the day. Lets just say that the event was a total success. The hamburgers and hotdogs were cookin, the beer was flowin, the skaters were droppin hammers, the b-boys, AND girls, were throwin' it down, and the DJ's were spinnin' all day! and even into the night. Big ups to everyone who made this event possible. And on to the pictures.
Todays winner, Fredo, has been rocking Orisue since i can remember. He is always sending us ad's and photo's that he does in Photoshop. He has pieces from the oldest Orisue line all the way until this season, Summer 2008. Fredo, congrats homie. Send contest@orisue.com a what's up if your Fredo.

This weekend! Don't miss out. We are throwing a huge BBQ for the release of our Summer 2008 Collection, HOW WE DO IT! Bring your skateboards, and your livers.
That's right folks. We teamed up with the fine people over at 80's Purple online shop for a limited re-issue of a classic FIRST season Orisue shirt. "Drop Love" was a main t-shirt that put us on the map and our first t-shirt to ever be featured in a magazine. We re-issued this t-shirt with a clean purple/white/silver shimmer colorway, and an 80's Purple-Orisue infused logo on the back. This shirt is available EXCLUSIVELY on www.80sPurple.com but you gotta act quick because only 80 shirts were printed.
Last Friday we all went out to our LA offices to watch the Celtics Pistons game and to enjoy some of Vince's fine gourmet cooking. U-N-I came out to chill too before catching a plane to Seattle. The Karmaloop guys came through as well and brought their camera equipment. Check the pictures, and be sure to check back for the video Karmaloop filmed.
Vince slaving for all of us.
U N I chillin!

When had our O Shit Best Trick contest in Chula Vista, homie drove from Arizona to kick it for the day. He is forever holding us down, and ALWAYS coppin' our gear. So here he is at http://www.myspace.com/zackrrre
