Gilbert Crockett Pro 2 - Shoe Review

Durable, functional, stylish, and light.

The Vans Crockett Pro 2 is a shoe that is just the right blend of sport functionality and skate.

Gilbert Crockett is a stone cold sober connoisseur of skateboarding.

When vans first visited him in his home he was there learning to make shoes.. By hand.. Just to see how they work.

Vans appreciates the DIY soul of skateboarding and nowhere is that seen quite like with Gil.

Lockhart Skateboards New Board Release Party for Shop Team Manager Carlos Leon

Ken  - Carlos Leon - Robert Lockhart - Kass Plummer

It was a night full of fun for everyone that came by and supported the Orlando skateboard scene. Lockhart Skateboards teamed up with Galactic G to have a board release party for one of the shop team riders, Carlos Leon.

Carlos Leon has been skateboarding for over 20 years and this is his 4th board to come from Lockhart Board Co. This new graphic hits Carlos's roots with his native flag of Puerto Rico!

The shop built wood pallet walls to hang boards and other art as the start in Ivanhoe to encourage and participate in the Orlando Art Community. The new wall gives an eccentric feel to the art show giving the room a great grassroots feel.

Over 75 people came through the night to show support, love, and thanks to the people involved in setting up this show. There was free drinks for anyone 21+ and soda pop for the kids.  DJ Select Red I was on the music all night pushing out the good vibes through the speakers.

Skater of the Year 2016 Kyle Walker Vans Signature Shoe

Kyle Walker Vans Shoe in Soft Pink

Are you a skater looking for a new shoe for gaps and transitions?

Vans has introduced a signature model for Kyle Walker, Thrasher Magazine’s 2016 skater of the year, named the Kyle Walker Pro that will do the job. The shoe is made with a combination of materials: suede, canvas and leather uppers, with the DURACAP upper reinforcement in high wear areas. Other special features of the shoe include:

• UltraCush HD impact sockliners keep the foot close to the board while providing the highest level of cushioning during impact.
• A Revolutionary technology called Wafflecup that offers the support of a cupsole without sacrificing the grip and board feel of a traditional vulcanized shoe.

Galactic G Skateshop is located in the northern side of the Ivanhoe District in Orlando, Florida, is the oldest and largest core skateshop in Central Florida. The business has been around for more than 20 years and offers a place for people to learn about skateboard culture and shop a large selection of top name brands like NikeSB, Vans, Adidas, Etnies, DCshoes, Quietlife, and Primitive.
