Omar is down!

As you might know our boy Chris and his crew are down in FWAustralia finishing up their ‘Finding Omar‘ trip; sort of an Animal Chin kind of endeavor that has them on a worldwide search for their local Kebab vendor who skipped town one night without saying bye. Well I guess they can pack up and head home, because even though they didn’t run in to their shady Egyptian friend: they sure found more Omar than they bargained for.

Omar Salazar has been one of our FWAvorite skaters since his days as an Am on the original Rasa Libre roster. So you can imagine us getting all syked like giddy fanboys when Chris came across our idol at Waterloo Skatepark in Sydney. My man even had him cracking Omarizms in an improv Fifth World Ascension tee (check the pics below). Dude is down!

Watch some FWAwesome footage on the tube and check out Omar talking about his upcoming Nike SB shoe. Is that purple in that colorway? Oh yeah!

Cory Kennedy: wizard4life

Yours truly chased Cory “Merlin twist” Kennedy halfway across the globe to hand over the official sealĀ of FWApproval!

We don’t even have an office..

But if we ever do, I wouldn’t mind it looking exactly like the RVCA warehouse! Check out the guided tour by Tempster himself and look out for some Leo and Keegan action (and a mighty slick lookin’ Josh Harmony).

Douse your compumatron in skate sizzurp with these! Photographer Switn was kind enough to have us turn these two FWAntastic shots of team rider Willem Vleugels into official FWAllpapers. We got ‘em tailor made for those big ballers up on 27″inchers too. Download links below - Holler!
