Good evening digital Babylonians

What’s there to eat in the metaphorical blog shaped fridge? Tonight, leftovers: a random mixture of fact and fun for your mental digesting pleasure. First off, Joe Sexton will finally receive his first ever pro-model ski board after years of paying his dues. Sexton’s currently filming for his next video part with the PEOPLES crew; check out their BlogSpot for all the trivial updates you can handle. Quick side note, the People crew recently filmed at Mt.Cain (CLICK image for details). In completely unrelated news, Andreas Wiig has officially, stepped beneath Burton umbrella, and joined the Forum snowboards team. In regards to the Olympics, the Cypress halfpipe is on schedule and looking sexy, if you’re intrigued and require further information follow link while enjoying a snickers: THE LINK. As for all other aspects of the Olympics, who gives a sh!t: moving on. Alternative just got some new Instrumental skateboards: come support your local skate companies. Shad’s presently working on a new album, which I’ll blog about later, in the meantime practice your gangsta walk to this. Justin Taron’s winterboard repertoire of fancy stunts recently progressed with impressive double 180’s. Drama (A.K.A Maximum) just ordered some Supra Society – turtleneck skate shoes and requests that no one else buys them. Random picture of Nikk Beach? Quite frankly, I’m shocked that you’re still reading this blog post, therefore, if you mention the secret code left in this post, you’ll receive a mad discount on your next purchase.

This really deserves its own post but I’m apathetic  so I’ll get to it later; In the meantime, enjoy this link and get involved.

Hello digital minions

We just received some new threads from Lifetime, RDS, Nixon, lakai, and Altamont to keep you “from lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground.” Remember the foundation of popularity is digital perception, and the only way to achieve status in this binary social hierarchy is by acquiring pokes, likes, and tags. Tags directly lead to more friend requests, which leads to girl’s phone numbers (or guy’s numbers, if that situation applies to you.)Therefore, it’s vital to keep up your appearances both in reality and digitally: your friend total may be at risk.

Binge drinking happens; luckily, we have the Nikk Beach Sale to keep you ballin with three hoodies for 99 and /or four tees for 40 bones.

Nixon Now!

Yo Bromies
We just got a boat load of new Nixon watches; literally they were delivered by a boat. The display case is pack with too many new models to bother typing out (plus, I have a paper cut on my finger). While you’re in the shop enjoying our major winter sale definitely try on our new ballin time tellers.

Inside detail: we just got some new threads and it’s almost ready for the shelves.

Our first ever Music Video Of the Week comes from the lovely duo Matt & Kim, this song is basically the AG soundtrack so why don’t we all cut the legs off of our pants and throw our shoes in the ocean already

Shake yo boobies

Boobies

I can confidently speaking on behalf of everyone here at Alternative, when I say “we all enjoy boobies.” Last week I made a promise to support boobies… by posting this advertisement for the Week to End Women’s Cancer’s SHAKE YOUR BOOBIES fundraiser.
