This past weekend, Skullcandy was able to get a behind the scenes look into the life and times of Sean Malto. Born and raised in Kansas City, Sean still calls the city home and was certainly the hometown hero in the first installment of Street League Skateboarding’s 2012 season at Sprint Center.
In what had to be the biggest gathering of skiing talent in one spot this year, the Sammy Carlson Invitational was THE place to be last weekend. The sun was out, and DJ Stray was on point – bringing great tunes all day and making people bob their heads to the beat. The Mt. Bachelor, Ore. course had a huge booter that ran out to a 30 by 30 wall ride. Sammy, himself, was standing at the bottom of the wall passing out over $10K throughout the day to the competitors whose tricks and style he liked.
Here’s a big shout out to Skullcandy’s Kyrie Irving, who was named 2011-12 NBA Rookie of the Year! Irving’s stats speak to the quality of his play (18.5 points per game, 5.4 assists per game and 40% 3-point shooting) but the first year pro’s leadership and coolness on the court speak to the quality of his character.
We have even more respect for the beard now that our own crew member, James Harden, has won the NBA Sixth Man Award. Harden came off the bench to score in double figures in almost every one of the 62 games of the 2011-12 strike shortened season. Plus, he had respectable numbers all the way around in rebounds, assists and shooting. It’s no surprise that Harden was the runaway winner of the award, with 115 of a possible 119 first-place votes.
In just four months Dr. Tetsuro Oishi, Skullcandy’s Director of Electrical & Acoustical Engineering/Advanced Concept Engineering, has managed to take our best-selling Hesh headphone and make it into a sound engineering work-of-art. In his words, “Hesh 2 is one of the best sounding headphones under $400.”
