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!

If you been following Roby Drydek’s Fantasy Factory on MTV, you probably already know that there’s a new movie coming out on June 12th called Street Dreams starring Paul Rodriguez.

The movie is about
Derrick Cabrera, like all skateboarders, dreams of being sponsored one day. He
has all the talent in the world to make it happen but some major roadblocks to overcome before he can make the dream a reality. He is receiving pressure from all sides, his parents are stressing him because he is failing in school, his girlfriend thinks he is a loser, his best friend has become his rival because he is better than him. Things come to a head after Derrick gets arrested and a fight ensues with his father resulting in him running away from home. He does the only thing he knows how to do and opts to follow his dream to the Tampa Am contest, one of the only ways an unknown skater can get noticed.
Here’s an exclusive clip in which Paul talks about his involvement in the film.

Thrasher Magazine organized the last ever Wallenberg contest last weekend. I got there a little bit late, so was unable to get a good spot up front. I still shot a few photos. And good thing Thrasher posted a video with all the action. Lizard King is my new favorite skater.
