Angelo Logan, the Grand Poobah behind Solediction, has a great review of the Skate Pack LX from the Paul Rodriguez collection.

Coincidentally, Paul has an interview in issue #67 of The Skateboard Mag.

Introducing the Fall 09 Skate Pack, the newest addition to the Paul Rodriguez Signature Collection, designed and constructed with the essentials in mind. The Skate Pack helps you take what you need where you need it by merging skateboard-specific design with the best in notebook protection and functional storage.

Constructed of durable, weather resistant nylon, the Skate Pack features a padded back panel and shoulder straps with breathable mesh and integrated airflow channels for ergonomic support and comfort. The exterior skateboard attachment allows for easy deck-loading, with Velcro straps and compression bumpers to secure your skateboard.

On the inside, the Skate Pack is lined in a custom screen-printed allover P-Rod multi-dot design and includes a reinforced notebook compartment and an extensive array of pockets allow for maximum organization.

And we can’t forget the collection’s namesake in all this. Paul has been busy this summer traveling, competing and winning. His recent performance on home court at Summer X Games 2009 in Los Angeles earned him the gold in Street. (Congratulations, Paul!)

We had the chance to document Paul on the road, traveling to the Boston stop of the Dew Tour. Check out the video (Filmed by Felipe Lima) to get an inside look at a day in the life of P-Rod.

P-Rod just won his 3rd X-Games gold medal!

2nd prize: Kevin Erst. Love the rawness. An Overnite Bag is coming your way Kevin.

Paul got some bangin tricks on The Berrics (still my favorite site!)

Plan B Skateboards put up a pretty insane promo video called “SuperFuture”. Here’s Paul’s part:

Download the entire 15 minute long movie (110MB).

Travel luggage for your skateboard…and then some. With storage for personal items on top, the Skate Bag’s lower compartment is equipped to handle a complete board setup, spare decks and parts.

My absolute favorite site right now is The Berrics. They got some of the coolest skate videos ever. Pay close attention to Buttery Ass Mondays and Wednesday With Reda. Comedy overload!

When the Berrics recently organized a contest where kids could submit their own “Banging” skate videos, we decided to throw in a complete set of the Paul Rodriguez Signature Collection for first prize.

The winner was announced today, check the footy:

Congrats Cody, you’re bangin!
