      Thanks brother. Things are going well over here, just staying busy. Its funny we have a distributor in Canada, but not in the US, so we need more shops to carry Scoff here. Maybe you'd be interested? Love and Respect, SCOFF SKATEBOARDING

      Man, September is always slow for us, but this September is better than usual. We just have a community college here, so not many longboard sales. However, the snow gear is rolling in here too, and it is awesome. We got these new Union bindings in and one set was wood grain. Awesome.
