RIDER UPDATE: HILLIARD SULPHER

Our very own globe trotter Hilliard Sulpher is on his way back from Barcelona and is headed to the good ol U.S.A for the Phoenix AM competition on the 5th and 6th of April. A handful of other Canadians are also attending, including Jordan Hoffart,Magnus Hanson, John Hanlon, TJ Rogers,Will Marshall, Kyle Desaulniers, Matt Berger and Ryan and Scott Decenzo. Good luck and have fun guys!

After Phoenix, Hilliard is heading back to Vancouver for a few weeks to make enough dough to buy a one-way ticket back East to Ontario, where he will be spending his time skating and hanging with friends and family in Windsor, Detroit and Toronto. See you soon Hill.

MOVING THE HQ

Hey everybody,
sorry for the lack of updates over the past few days. We have been in the process of moving to a new (cheaper, bigger) space and have been without Internet or a phone! Hopefully Bell Canada finally hooks it up sometime today. I am tired of sitting in a chair, on my desk with my computer on the windowsill to get a decent wireless signal. In a more positive light, the sun has finally been showing up for work and the 4 ft snow piles are finally receding.

Thanks for dropping by! Send us an email and say hello. change@changeskateboards.com

Until the next update...

CLIP OF THE WEEK #17: CHRIS QUICKS SPONSOR ME TAPE?

This weeks C.O.T.W is a dedication to the one and only Chris Quick.

In many ways Chris Quick is a historian, whether he wants to be or not. He skates, he films skateboarding, edits, arranges, and orchestrates clips for all to enjoy. He works hard and takes his job seriously. We think he's only 22 years old, but at times appears to be a 50 something lumberjack from Northern Alberta. Chris is a big part of Change Skateboards, he made our first and only feature to date "Fireworks, Dancing and Cartwheels" and took Windsor skate cinematography to a new level with "Unscene". Great work Chris, your efforts may at times seem to be done without reward but your commitment and passion is respected.
Thank you again,from James and Jeff at Change.

Enjoy!
