So today’s the day, adidas Canada officially launches its Canadian skateboard program.
We’ve been working on the program for a few months now, and we’re really excited about it, it’s been hard work and many a sleepless night, but this is only the start. We’ve put together a great team for a great company who’s been backing skateboarding for years.
Mitch Charron, Wojtek Zawada, Mike McCourt, Rob Piontek, Sam Klassen & Mike Vince join Mark Gonzales, Dennis Busenitz & Tim O’Connor as well as the rest of the ams over at adidas skateboarding. We took Rob Piontek and Mike McCourt over to an adidas lunch & learn session where they were able to see the upcoming line, including the O’Connor pro shoe.
After the session at adidas we headed out to grab some gelato and wings—an interesting combo for sure—Rob ate enough Armageddon sauce to kill an elephant. Pictures coming later today below.
