Fuck Cancer.

Tragedy has struck our AZ brethren and Grind for Life has stepped in to help.

Tara Locker, the ultimate ‘skate betty’ and real boss of AZPX Skateboards has been stricken with Stage 3 Breast Cancer. After going through a bi-lateral mastectomy, Tara is going to have endure the next year of grueling Chemotherapy and Radiation treatments. In an effort to relieve some of the financial strains that the family will endure, GrindforLife.org has teamed up with AZPX to issue the AZPX/Grind for Life ‘Tara Locker Bro Model’, with all proceeds going directly to Tara Locker on behalf of GrindforLife.org. There are only 100 of these limited edition decks available in AZPX Standard Sizes (while supplies last). Mention what size you prefer in the paypal special note box. We are also putting out a great shirt for kids to wear to school. You can purchase each separate or as a specially priced shirt/deck combo. Thank you all for the outpouring of support during this trying time. – Rob Locker

MRZ in the LBC.

If you have any interest in the skateboard world, chances are you’ve seen a MRZ photo. Ray Zimmerman has been at it since the 80’s, been everywhere and shot everyone from young grom to seasoned pro. The dude puts countless hours into his photography and has definitely been an inspiration to me. Next month will be Ray’s very first solo show at Dark Matter Gallery in Long Beach. Opening reception on January 8, 2011, 6-10pm.
