Team Report 11-07-05
Tuesday, Nov 8, 2005 · Garry
Eric Koston just scored his highest game of golf this weekend, a 76, while Atiba and Ako Jefferson watched in amazement. He was also spotted at the Lakers game home opener.
Rodrigo Tx. and Antwuan Dixon just got back from a filming mission to San Franciso. The weather gods must have been on our side, because the climate was great, regardless if Antwuan got hurt because some fool waxed the landing at Lincoln High. He’ll be back!
Twuan spent the rest of the time entertaining us by making us laugh at everything that came out his mouth. Thanks, Antuwan. Rodrigo took care of business like he always does. His part for the upcoming éS video just keeps getting tighter and tighter. I can’t wait to see it.
Speaking of video parts, P.J. Ladd has been working closely with Scuba all over Los Angeles, collecting the bangers to wow our future viewers.
Rick McCrank is finally back in Vancouver, spending some quality time with his daughter after playing the roles of director and actor in a short film his friend is making called Harvey Spannos.
Now that the weather is better back down under, Cale Nuske has decided to go home to Adeliade, Australia and continue strengthening his knee.
Speaking of strengthening, things are looking good for Justin Eldridge, as he is presently working on refinancing his home and rehabbing his knee, from which he had some cartilage removed. Justin will be back in no time.
Javier Sarmiento is on his way over to the United States to go on a Firm tour with Rodrigo.
éS flow rider Mike Barker just finished putting the final touches on his part for P-Rod’s Forecast video. Since we’re on the subject of video parts, éS flow rider Bobby Worrest is on his way up to San Francisco to work on his part for the Krooked video.
Note to myself: Mike Manzoori is the hardest working man in the skate video business (see photos).
Team Report, Antwuan Dixon, Bobby Worrest, Cale Nuske, Eric Koston, Javier Sarmiento, Justin Eldridge, PJ Ladd, Rick McCrank, Rodrigo Tx.

11/8/05 at 07:27I wanna give a shout out to Scuba Steve. I think he deserves a part in the video, too. I wish I could film skaters, professional or not. Meeting / Making friends with the world’s greatest, is just something I’d love. I want to be a Scuba Shane when I grow up.

11/8/05 at 08:29HEY im just wondering, when will eS have a ‘design a t-shirt contest part two’? or will eS even have one? emerica has done like four of them and the’ve been a success, from what i can tell. eS should have more contests like that

11/8/05 at 10:25idk but stay on the topic haha. I can’t wait to see what PJ and Justin Eldridge bust out in the YES video. I hope Justin recuperates quick and gets back to throwing down them bangers! Ohh yea, Koston should go out and skate! ahha even though basketball is tight, and idk about golf lol.

11/8/05 at 12:14We might do another design a t contest but our brothers over at Emerica are all over that gig. Maybe we’ll do some thing a bit different for all of you.
Another hard working dude is JAY MALDONADO the éS team manager. He’s killing it.
Can’t wait to see footage from all these dudes, it will be sick fo’ sure.

11/8/05 at 12:45oh what a news on street machine !
see this :
“Word on the street is - Eric Koston has parted ways és… sending shockwaves throughout the industry, haha. This could be the biggest shake up in recent memory. What could be in his future??? Lakai perhaps…”

ToNyXeS says:
11/8/05 at 12:59And the last one :
“Wow. JONES gets some hot rumors, makes a post or two and his lazy ass disappears… real smooth. Remember how he said that this past Sole Tech GVR contest was going to be Koston’s last as a ES rider? Well, we didn’t even see him at the event this year - will he be pulling an MJ - wearing Adidas for the remainder of his contract? ”
Buy éS Koston it will be collector soon !

11/8/05 at 05:29Design a shoe contest has been tossed around a lot here. It might happen. “Shockwaves”…wow. That’s pretty intense. You know what would send even more shockwaves is if we told you we are going to stop making shoes and instead make a tastey breakfeast ceral. Koston is with us now if that changes you’ll be the first to know.

11/9/05 at 10:20God dammit rained killed this day! wtf i hate rain, and all i have been hearing from people is how much they like rain wtf? I wanna go skate so bad because Wednesdats are like the main days i have to skate because of work and school. Anyways….. If Koston was to leave ES i wonder if anybody else would wanna leave the team as well (hopefully Koston and nobody else decide to leave though). Hey Craig and Josh P. how about you guys have a design a colorway for the Accel’s or another popular shoe, just an idea. Design a T would still be cool though even if Emerica is already doing some.

11/9/05 at 06:59Not to be a pain in the ass or anything, but Yes better not be a short flick because we’ve been waiting almost 2 years hearing about it. Just don’t rip us off when it comes out. 50 minutes or longer would be around a good time, just no teaser length for a full fledge vid.

11/21/05 at 01:29Lincoln is that one school in SF, the way they describe it makes it seem like they were referring to the 13 stair there.
Grecs-switch frontside flip
Andrew R.- Nollie Half cab
PJ- Switch flip
you know? that set of stairs.
