Emerica - - “The Spanky”

June 5th, 2008 in Sneakers by Lars

Young skate stunner Kevin “Spanky” Long’s beastly board control not only landed him on the loaded Baker squad, it also got him properly fitted on Emerica. After dropping flop one and flop two, this 23-year-old Morrissey fanatic finally designed a wearable shoe and is promoting it through a 24-hour commercial dubbed Kevin All Day and Night Long, which will cover Spanky’s antics throughout a 24mile trek across California. It will air live online on June 24th at 6am PST. The countdown has begun on Emerica’s site and they also provide images of Spanky’s new slim shoe. If you couldn’t tell, the grey color-up above features a bit of Bear-flair. See more toned down colorways after the jump, including a sleek leather church-style shoe. Expect Spank to bank this summer.

Terry Kennedy’s 23rd Surprise Birthday Bash

May 31st, 2008 in Skateboarding by Lars

It’s obvious that Terry Kennedy aka TK isn’t your typical skate rat. Sure, he rides for Baker, one of the raunchiest teams out there and he keeps his skate game tight with his latest part in “Baker Has A Deathwish“, but the skate side of TK blended with his glam side when he dropped his well-received Fly Society Vid. He doesn’t care what people say; he does what he loves and he does it %100. So? He’s a skate rapper and his glamor alone drops hammers, but don’t let his ice freeze over his warm, sensitive side. In fact, he’s got something going on with Run’s House hottie Angela Simmons. So what’s next for TK? Well, take a look at his 23rd birthday bash and witness the celeb entourage that rolled though to support him: Vanessa Simmons, P-Rod, Jereme Rogers, the Boss himself: Andrew Reynolds [and his baby girl Stella], Cato Williams, Kevin Pro-mar, the white man can jump stunner Torey Pudwill, and let’s not forget the man behind it all: Kevin Booker. Tha Clinic has the whole event covered, including a few puppy love glances between Angela and TK. Perhaps TK will drop a single with Run DMC… See the whole Birthday Bash video exclusively on Tha Clinic. Get teary-eyed as you see the Boss and his lil baby girl Stella after the jump.

Rollin’ With TK

February 20th, 2008 in Skateboarding by Lars

tk1.jpg

The Skateboard Mag revamped their site and added a new “Rollin With” section. “The Nuge” was the first featured skater, now you’ll get to see Terry Kennedy. You’ve watched him grow-up firsthand with Baker, then randomly move to Element for a micro-second, then back to Baker. He also notoriously posted “F@$% Ice Cream” on his Myspace page at one point, but ultimately stayed with the team. He’s loud, obnoxious, flashy, and you know what, these are the kind of things [besides great skating] that make him so popular and keep him in the game. The Rollin’ With feature for TK will consist of exclusive skate footage, questions from fans, and entertaining antics. Now it’s your chance to ask him anything you want. If you can’t think of a question, just look at his picture. Exactly. Hit the link and ask away right now!
