Win Jamie's Surfboard!
Posted by: Brink | Monday, June 18, 2007
You groms want a chance to win a Jamie O'Brien surfboard and a grip of his favorite etnies goodies? Hell ya you do!
Some call him the “Freak,” others have gone on to call him the “Superfreak.” I call him the “flying squirrel on acid” but that’s neither here nor there.
Whatever you want to call him, Jamie is an individual and prides himself on surfing “free.” Rather than chasing points and surfing crappy waves on the WQS, he gets fired up to surf the best waves worldwide while pushing the progression of surfing to new levels. Switchstance in the tube, rodeo’s, kerrupt flips, shove-its, stalefish grabs, alley-oops, you name it—Jamie continues to blow minds.
So this is your chance! Let’s hear it! Get pissed! In 50 words or less tell us what you think of the “FREAK!”
Leaving the Right Soleprint
Posted by: Brink | Thursday, June 14, 2007
For Immediate Release – June 12, 2007
Lake Forest, Calif. – Driven by his vision and spirit for a company successful on the balance sheet, the streets, the slopes, the ocean and ultimately on our amazing planet, Pierre Andre Senizergues embodies the genuine qualities as a true leader by revolutionizing the future of action sports and the way Sole Technology does business. For his environmental endeavors, Senizergues was honored on June 9 at the 11th Annual Global Green USA and Green Cross International Millennium Awards as this year’s recipient of the Corporate Environmental Leadership Award. As CEO and founder of Sole Technology, parent company to top action sports brands etnies, éS, Emerica, Altamont and ThirtyTwo, Senizergues has set a positive example for his peers in business and media by greening his company and speaking out about the need to take action to protect the environment and leaving the right footprint, or in Pierre’s case, soleprint.
In 2002, under the leadership of Senizergues, Sole Technology began making changes to protect the environment in their business practices. Recently, Sole Technology added to its list the conversion to waterless urinals at its headquarters to promote water conservation. Saving up to 250,000 gallons of water each year, that’s equivalent to approximately an Olympic size swimming pool, three million cups of coffee, and what matters most to the action sports industry, two and a half million bottles of beer.
In addition to Senizergues’ vision and full commitment to corporate responsibility other initiatives include the installation of 616 solar panels, the conversion to water-based cement manufacturing, company-wide recycling efforts, the addition of the first-ever environmental affairs manager and the launch of a sustainable footwear and apparel collection, the etnies SEED Project. Senizergues has also recently teamed up with Leonardo Dicaprio and Tree Media as executive producer for the upcoming and highly-anticipated documentary, THE 11th HOUR, set to open in theaters in fall 2007. Senizergues supports the film in hopes to create awareness and discussion around the issues we are facing and the environmental movement to motivate people to reduce the size of footprint they leave behind on our planet and for future generations.
Global Green USA was founded by former president Mikhail Gorbachev and serves as a national environmental organization addressing and creating a new approach to solving the world's most pressing environmental challenges by reconnecting humanity to the environment. Senizergues’ name is added to a prestigious list of past Millennium Award recipients like Leonardo DiCaprio, Ted Turner, Joan Bavaria, Paul Hawken, Gary Hirshberg, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, David Suzuki, Winona LaDuke, Ray Anderson, and many more outstanding leaders.
“I’m honored personally and professionally to recognize a leader like Pierre that understands the important connection between humankind and the environment,” says Matt Peterson, CEO of Global Green. “Global Green recognizes those unique leaders who embody our mission and are an inspiration to others.”
Known for pioneering technological advances in skateboard footwear, Pierre Andre Senizergues and Sole Technology have stayed true to its skateboarding roots while pushing the envelope as a corporate leader of sustainability in the industry and will continue its efforts in doing the right thing. Check out Pierre’s award presentation.

A Baby Named etnie!?!!
Posted by: Brink | Friday, June 8, 2007
Got this email from a woman named Keeley Cruickshanks a few weeks ago! She named her daughter Etnie and sent us some pix!
I named my daughter Etnie, as my fiancé is a sponsored rider, not by etnies, but we both loved the word and thought it would make a good name for our baby girl who is now 9 months old. In Ireland it means "a saint" after Saint Etienne. "Etnie" is the female version. I am at the moment trying to get Etnie in to baby modeling so if u ever need a baby model for etnies clothing in catalogs or something just holla'. We would be more than happy to represent etnies clothing. Thanks!
