Ollie Pop Riders find Guinness World Records that were meant to be POP'd!

Very few folks are fortunate enough to accomplish something beyond anything imagineable so much so that the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS puts a certificate together... At Ollie Pop we haven't done much of anything like that. BUT!!! not a BIG BUTT, but more of a "huge however" but, we are very lucky to be associated and represented by a couple of young men who have gone "BUZZ LIGHTYEAR" and beyond to be recognized by Guinness Book of World Records.

For starters there is Zach Kral who skates out of Wisconsin for Phenom Skateboards. He not only has the Guinness World Record for most consecutive kickflips of 1546 that he turned in 2008 at 4Seasons skatepark; he also jammed out 29 kickflips in a minute back on May 15, 2010 to shatter the old Guiness World Record of 23!

Then this past week at X Fest during X GAMES 16 the Guiness folks unveiled GWR LIVE where Alex Sorgente who rides Globe/BLIND out of South Florida pulled a double Guinness World Record performance on the 30 second format! Alex pulled both 15 frontside boneless and 15 axle stalls, each set of tricks in just 30 seconds!

Big props to a couple youngsters having fun at World Record levels! Thanks to both Zach, Alex, their families and sponsors for their continued support. And as always remember to GRIND SOME!

SUMMER RIPPERS!

hey Y'all... been a while since our last "blog" post although we have an open Q&A going with Formspring.me and AskMeAnything which registers on here. let's us know if its a nuissance or whatev...

so just wanted to posted some thanks and congrats....

Thanks to all the team riders who have been helpin where they can!!! it's been tough with the last couple of years economy to get the business to where we think it should be and despite the cuts - these guys keep on reppin... it's that kind of fight that keeps us chugging. A big thanks to the folks that have been carrying us as well. you know who you are and your extended terms, working with us and mostly being patient are greatly appreciated.

Now a quick bit of congrats to these guys who are repping all over the Globe...

Speaking of Globe, its rider and ours Alx Sorgente ground out a couple of back to back killer weekends in FLa at local comps in Naples and Dunnedin.. Check this out! The trophy is bigger than the surfboard prize!!!

Then keeping it SoCal and local, Chase Barney just killed at the San Diego AmSlam; taking the top spot on the podium. Then he parlayed his grind into a 3rd place at the CAL STATE games for 13-15 year-olds - and he's only 12!!!!

And out in the NETHERland, where most of that country was cranked up on thier football and World Cups... Spencer Lau was grinding the streets in Amesterdam pickin off 6th place and some saweet prizes at this year's Amsterdam DAMNAM! we'll undoubtedly see him Trick or Treat at the VOLCOM DamnAm in October! But before then... check him out on page 110 of July's Bliss http://blisssmag.com/july10.html playing luke skywalker with this massive boardslide!

Keep up with us online via our Facebook page www.facebook.com/olliepop or on Twitter @GRINDSOME.


Again, we appreciate all the continued support and hope to be back with more great news as the summer progresses!

Enjoy the heat, stay cool and remember to GRINDSOME!

Not Quite a Year...

Yuppers! looks like we almost went a year without a post. Not that there wasn't anything to write or upload - just that not enough time for the uber scaled back operations staff here at Ollie Pop. We could blame twitter :) - but shame on us. We do tweet on @Grindsome if you are out there. Anyways, we'll try to catch you all up on Ollie Pop but in an effort to keep things on the uptick - will feature this blast on the Clash at Clairemont that PACSUN hosted at the Mission Valley YMCA. The annual event drew over 70 top pros, dozens of brands and probably close to a thousand folks to raise awareness and some major money to support Grind For Life in its support to skate and destroy cancer.
The event was split up across the Vert Ramp, Street and Bowl with contests across each and emceed by Daggerman Dave Duncan. The day started with a New Era best trick contest on the street for the AMs (congrats to our friend Austin Zito) before a highest 540 on the vert ramp. Lincoln Ueda pulled in the 5 benjis but Tony Hawk and Andy Macdonald got their doubles on for the crowd. Then a best trick with some other side junkets for Pros took center stage on the street section with folks like Ollie Pop Bublbe Gum chomper Torey Pudwill and Jordan Hoffart.

The crowd migrated to what must have been the biggest autograph line ever!!! Bucky Lasek, Lyn-Z Hawkins, PLG, Chris Gentry, Andy Mac, among the other pros all took a break from the skate to appease the fans with their John Hancock. The day wound down with a longest hand stand in the bowl saw another $250. As usuasl though the real trickery came in the winding hours as the trio of Lester Kasai, Andy Macdonald, and Steve Cabellero hooking it up for some triples.

A big thanks to Mike Rogers and Chris Conway for asking us to participate and also to GFL and Ollie Pop team rider Alx Sorgente and his family for making the trip out to Cali from Fla. Check him out shredding the bowl:

Thanks for sticking with us and from this time til next time - so long. Shred or die and remember to always GRIND SOME Ollie Pop!

Poppin' On Down The Road.

Welcome back to what we know as the only blog in the world wide web that talks about rippers, riders, shredders and ships with POP! So things have been pretty hectic out on the event front… local shop comps, urban sessions and stateside activities…

Leading off with the shopside events, things went pretty well over at Underwood Skatepark in the PA this weekend.
Matt Ruane was the lucky winner of the Ollie Pop High Ollie Contest, so he took home 50 big ones for that! Nice Pop Matt.
We also want to thank Underwood for including us in that event – they move more than their fair share of Ollie Pop and we are happy to give their event something to get up for… Also on the sponsor side of things Ollie Pop fronted some product out to Jennifer Harmon’s Charity Poker event in Lake Tahoe – the 2 time WSOP champ powered through her allocation of Watermelon and started raiding the other player’s gift bags! Now we’ve created a monster as Full Tilt Poker TM Rich Bitar is bootlegging the good stuff to tournament all over the world.

With respect to some state oriented comps – Chase Barney was kickin' it old school style in Venice Beach, CA this weekend and got some sweet shots with him and his homies. Chase also took 2nd place in the street course at CASL at the Skatelab this weekend. He was also in the top five for the Mini Ramp. Good job Chase, keep poppin'! Bouncing east coast Jacksonville based Spencer Lau was busy. We say “based” not because he is grounded but cuz this kid has more miles logged than our own sales guys! well until this little kiss of pavement at the 4:40 mark on this youtube. The slendeezy 13 year-old did snag 11^th at Florida Bowlriders OPEN AM division earlier in march. Anyhoots, he’ll be rockin a new grill when he jets to AZ for the Phx AM where you’ll see the BROTHERS SHORT. Good luck guys and thanks for all your support! wish we good be there… Speaking of being there, OP made a little trek across the Mojave desert to check out the AM/DM action – that’s for Antonio Moya and David Mackay - at the 107.5 Extreme Thing. Despite the nation’s automaker challenges and are DOA alternator – the POP-mania machine got er done as did Vegas AM JAM 1^st placer Antonio Moya. AM took 1st in the skate intermediate 13 and unders, and podiumed with DM who took the top spot in the Mini Ramp 15 and unders. DM kept it rolling into the open comp with the big boys and placed 4^th. So be sure you stop by their myspace pages and show them some love. You can also see an overload of photos from Vegas and AM/DM on Flickr. Bookmark it with Digg or Delicious or whatever so you can get direct access to Ollie Pop photos.

So that’s about it. if you’re dying for some Ollie Pop and the homies at your shop say no mas.. you know the drill – dial 1-800-446-1787 and tell us where u b so we can rally the pop-ulation to get that shop some pop! Thanks guys, now GO GRIND SOME!!!

Hey all,
Welcome back for some fresh vital Grind Some news!
As you all should know if you really skate, the Tampa Pro was this past weekend and boy oh boy was it off the hook! If you were geographically restrained (like us) to some anti-SPoTampa location without access to FUEL.tv and missed out on this event, then don't cry just yet, because you can see the whole thing at FUEL.TV online. Some killer skating going on there and thanks out to Jungle Jim who made the trip and dropped some Ollie Pop to the lucky ones in the crowd. Surely they will splice a made for tv version on cable as well. Consider that our little tidbit of gift to you for this week. See... we here at Ollie Pop like to share the sites and take care of our peops.
While we are on the subject of comps. our young riders rip! Ryan Connors is rolling like the proverbial king of the heap eh #1 This time it was at CC Monster Series. So make sure you stop by his Myspace page and leave him some love. Additionally, we'll be rolling the Ollie Pop Van out to meet our groms AM/DM (Antonio Moya and David Mackay) at the Extreme Thing happening at Desert Breeze park in Vegas for the VegasAMJAM. Good luck guys! Oh and a finally - did we tell you about our little SoFLA ripper - Alx Sorgente? - well shame on us cause a couple weeks back the super steazy italion stallion won the overall GROM division at the Florida Bowlriders Cup with a second in Kona and top spots in New Smyrna and Cocoa Beach. Check out the details from our friend DD - Dave Duncan at World Cup Skateboarding. Oh and grand finale - props out to Reuben who trekked with his little bro all the way from El Centro to check out the Ollie Pop WHQ. You rock and we appreciate all your support. Stayed tuned as we gots some ideas brewing for you with K1.
Anyways, check this out! We've been telling you about the Patty Skate Jam at Underwood Skatepark for the past month or so and believe it or not, it's almost here! Sarge and the homies over in PA, are hosting the contest on March 28th. It is called the Paddy Skate Jam and they will be putting on a Ollie Pop Sponsored High Ollie contest with 50 bucks getting shelled out to whoever wins!!! So start practicing your pop! Underwood is also freshly stocked with Ollie Pop, so make sure you pick some up while your there, that way you can get that extra pop that you're going to need for the comp. Speaking of Freshly Stocked EXODUS - "Freedom for the skaters" (thanks Mr. Marley) has re-upped and received some fresh good stuff. Our loyal friend Carter down near tobacco road in Winston-Salem will be happy to get your Ollie Pop fix - btw - for you older more exposed - we are talking about Ollie Pop Bubble Gum here!!!
So a big thanks to you fearless rider/shredder/fan for reading our little update to the world here with Grind Some blog! Let us know if your jonesng some ollie pop and you can't find it anywhere near you. Be sure to holla out their name and a basic location - we in turn shall hit their phone, inbox and quite possibly their shop. And if they choose to be too cool or "hard core". We will peer pressure then and if knumber skulls prevail, just tell us where you live and we will call the nearest 7-11 and try to get it in there for you. It may cost a tab bit more, because we try to support YOUR local skate shops and give you some financial incentive to get Ollie Pop from a skate/surf/snow shop. Speaking of snow - props out to our Grenade friends and Danny Kass on his however manyeth World Cup crown! so like i was gonna say - we will do our very best to make sure that you have complete access to buy your Ollie Pop.

Keep On Poppin'

Hey guys,

Hope you all had a great weekend filled with plenty of skating! I know we did! But now it's back to the grinder and Ollie Pop is making moves!

We had a great time out at the Clash at Clairemont this weekend and if you didn't get a chance to make it out, let me be the first to tell you, you definitely missed out. But don't be sad, because lucky for you our good ol' pals over at Transworld were there to cover the whole thing. That way you don't have to miss a beat! Go check out the video at Transworld.com to catch up on what you missed. Plus, you can see some of the photos on our Myspace and Facebook.
We also want to take this time to send out a huge apology to Mt. Baldy on account that we were M.I.A. on sat. Johnny injured his back trying to tre-flip Hollywood high over the rail, so he couldn't make it. We apologize and hope we can do something together again in the future. Seriously, we had a back give out and could access the contact numbers - our bad.

Little Ryan Connors had a pretty good weekend. He is only 9, but get this... he dropped in and jumped over the groms in the 12 and under sponsored division at the CASL competition this weekend and took home 1st place, way to go RY!!! Be sure to give him some props for that!

Check out our friends at SPoTLIGHT throwing on the Tampa Pro, and look out for Jungle Jim if you are at the park because he's got a secret stash of Ollie Pop for his discretionary use.

As for upcoming events, Sarge and his peops up at Underwood Skatepark in PA, are hosting a contest on March 28th. It is called the Paddy Skate Jam and they’ll put on an Ollie Pop Sponsored High Ollie contest with 50 bucks getting shelled out to whoever wins!!! So start practicing your pop! Underwood is also freshly stocked with Ollie Pop, so make sure you pick some up while your there, that way you can get that extra pop that you're going to need for the comp.

We have a couple more shops that have just ordered some Ollie Pop, so now it's our job to let you know who they are. The first is Pulse Boardshop in Tyler, TX. So if you live in Tyler, or anywhere around Tyler, now you know where you can get your pop! Also, our friends over at P.B. Boys Club in Palm Beach, FL bought a couple cases. Check out their website, they have some sweet T-shirts on there that you can buy. But make sure if you live in the area you stop by the store and say hi and buy some Ollie Pop while you are there. Speaking of websites, you should go check out the new Ollie Pop website when you get a chance. It's fully loaded with all the Ollie Pop info that you need!

First things first, last week after all the trade show madness, we had a nice little trip to some of the skateparks in Vegas. Antonio Moya and David Mackay were out there rippin' it up and reppin' it for the pop. Those guys are true pop masters. If you guys didn't happen to know, there are a lot of great skateparks in Vegas. So, if you live in the area check out www.skateboardpark.com to find one near you.
There are a few more shops that just placed orders for some Ollie Pop.
Our homies over at 2 Felons Skateshop just made a re-order of pop. So now they are freshly stocked. You can add Two Felons on myspace, just follow this link to their page, www.myspace.com/twofelons. Get over there and show them some love and buy a pack of Ollie Pop while you're at it. Also, Skatelab in Simi Valley, CA just placed their first order, so we are stoked to see them supporting the pop.
And if you just so happen to live in Lihue Hawaii, our good buddy Donovan just made an order for Meyvn Skateshop. You can check out their shop at www.myspace.com/meyvnskate.
Underwood Skatepark in PA is going to be hosting a contest later this month and Ollie Pop is happy to be supporting the cause. We will have more info on that next week, so make sure you check back then for more of your vital Grind Some news.
That's about it for now. Be sure to let us know if you local skate shop doesn't carry Ollie Pop. Just give us their name and a basic location and we will give them a call. Thanks guys, we hope you guys all have a great week. Now... GO SKATE!!!
