Last night in San Francisco, California, Nike SB threw a rager for Omar Salazar and his new shoe. It was held at the Mezzanine club and had a fantastic outer space theme: the catering was done by martians, the photos of Omar on the walls were in 3-D, and psychedelic bands like Earthless rocked the crowd. Nike SB has a sweet micro site where you can learn more about the shoe, and we have a nice write up and photo gallery here.

From skating the shop handrail in an ad to a full-on skate contest, a simple idea grew into the FTC For The Cash contest, held last week in San Francisco. With some of the best skaters there for the one-day-only invitational best trick contest, a massive crowd of legends and skateboarding’s best looked on. The skating went down entirely in the shop with the crowd out back watching live on TV screens. When it was all done, Peter Ramondetta came away with first place and $5000, Ishod Wair got second and $3000, and Evan Smith took home third place and $1000. At the end, they took it all down and had the shop running like normal the next day.

The collection of shoes will be designed by Shaun in collaboration with his brother, Jesse, and will feature styles influenced by the professional skateboarder’s lifestyle.
