Don't know how many of you remember Rasa Libre but they used to be a brand that had really good boards, then the company went under, but they arose from death and are back together.

Check out their new site and the new Rasa Libre teaser vid.

haha yeah they were at one point. But they are alive and well again.

Remembering Tim Brauch.
A note of remembrance today - when you roll out there and skate this afternoon with your crew get in a trick or two in honor of skateboarding’s friend and professional skater Tim Brauch. Today marks 10 years since his passing. Never Forget.

It's the same way I feel about the Tony Hawk games, ever since Skate came into the market, I don't care about the Tony Hawk games anymore.

Murawski Makes Good with Blueprint and Westgate Turns Pro
Marty Murawski has been enlisted as the newest team rider with Blueprint. With his Bangin’ skills there’s no doubt in our minds that he’ll have a sick part in the brand’s forthcoming video Make Friends With The Colour Blue due out later this year. In other news, Cape Cod’s very own Brandon Westgate has officially and deservedly risen up to the professional ranks with a new signature deck at Zoo York. This announcement comes just in time for his highly anticipated part in State of Mind to premiere early next month!

Zumiez Offers $7.2 Million for Active
According to Transworld Business, Zumiez has made an offer to purchase all assets and stores from the recently bankrupt retail empire Active Rideshop for $7.2 million. Read the details right here.

Rasa Libre definitely was a super good board.. but I had one when it was still on Deluxe (peacock feather deck). I've skated a newer one and it was excellent. And the consolidated was ****ing solid. Broke it kickflipping a kicker but it was like a month old. Had a huge amount of pop and hardly chipped, only started to the last few days I had it.

Sk8 Shorty's · 05-21-2009, 02:59 PM

Definitely getting a Rasa dude.

For news:

Malto Signs with the G Squad
Joining phenom Chaz Ortiz over at Gatorade’s select skateboarding team, Kansas City’s Sean Malto has quenched his thirst with a sizeable contract. Just how many Gs does a G get for signing onto the G squad?

and

Etnies continues to build their team with the addition of Devine Calloway.

Team Change Ups and Endorsements
Corey Duffel has signed to Oz’s Armourdillo brand with a forthcoming line of signature accessories. No longer sitting idle on a footwear flowgram, Nor Cal’s Taylor Bingaman is the newest am recruit to Osiris’ expanding skate team. Greg Lutzka has been selected as the cornerstone professional to establish a new skate team at K-Swiss in an apparent bid for a percentage of the skate footwear market. Perhaps Anna knows the real deal here? Lastly, Mike Vallely has leveraged an endorsement with Affliction clothing since the brand speaks directly to his lifestyle.
