"You too Close"

THIS IS INSANE! There is no way I would be out here on purpose! But it makes for a cool photo and video opportunity!

You too close

The reason for the low approach and incredible close action is because this is the shortest commercial runway (almost 8 thousand ft) that the 747 lands in the world. Also, because the end of the runway features so close to a main road and beach, makes it popular for tourists and aviation nuts as well.

--------------------
From Wiki:

Incoming airplanes approach the island on short final for Runway 9 flying low over the famous Maho Beach. At any other airport aircraft fly at the same altitude at that point in the approach, but other airports don't have a beach, road and a fence just beyond the runway end. Pictures of low flying aircraft were published in several news magazines worldwide in early 2000 and looked so unreal that some were even disputed as fakes. The thrilling approaches and ease of access for shooting spectacular images made the airport one of the world's favorite places among planespotters. To meet changing international and local regulations a 150 meter safety extension was required.

COPPED: Snapbacks on deck!!!

In our journeys we've come across some pretty dope snapbacks and since we're pretty fashion forward we decided to cop them. These are all dead stock and have the original tags straight 90's style. Maybe for the right price we'd be willing to give them up. Maybe not. Send us an e-mail and make us an offer we can't refuse.

The Dude with the Beard Munny

Last week the REAL Jeremy Biggers aka the dude with the beard celebrated his birthday and Sam.. with the hair decided to immortalize him in Munny form. The face, and hat were completely built using sculpey. From the sketch to the final product. This was two months in the making. Just goes to show, much more goes into these designs and executions than what you see on the blog. And just adding to the reasons we're better than your favorite clothing and lifestyle brands!

POST LABOR DAY SALE!!!

We were cleaning our storage room and found a box of last season's shirts just lying around all willy nilly... and since we aren't fans of willy or nilly, these shirts need to get up, get out, and get something. We need to make room for all the new stuff we're getting in so, we're going to make them available to you all, and EVERYTHING MUST GO... Only $10 bucks! Here are the sizes and styles we still have left. (don't waste either of our time asking for other sizes, if you don't see it here, we ain't got it!!!) As you can see the quantities are SUPER limited, and once these are gone, they are gone forever! So why not spend that $10 you found doing laundry last week on some new gear?EVERYTHING MUST GO!

September: Get $#!+ Done MONTH!

So, back in June we experimented with a "Get $#!+ Done Month" to see how much we could get done with a concerted effort to grind non-stop for a month and literally burn ourselves out, and it was a hit so, we've decided that September would be appropriate to do it all again. Back to school, back to work... not that we took the summer off but... you know what, you get it, we don't have to explain! This time however we're going to make the month more interactive. Once a week we will have a giveaway of some sort. The qualifications will be blog based so unless you're here, you won't know what to do. Stay tuned and stay alert!
