DC WELCOMES PJ LADD TO ITS SKATEBOARDING TEAM

Vista, CA - January 29, 2008
After months of speculation on Internet message boards, DC is proud to welcome professional skateboarder, PJ Ladd to the team. He exploded onto the skateboard scene in 2002 with the release of his mind-blowing part in "Wonderful Horrible Life," and won the first pro contest he ever entered.

DC Co-founder Ken Block said, "I couldn't be happier to have PJ join the DC team. His skateboarding speaks for itself and he makes the DC team even more dynamic. I look forward to what DC and PJ can accomplish together."

"To me, DC has always represented the best," said PJ.
I skated in DC's a lot when I was younger and I have always been hyped on their whole deal. I am excited to be a part of the DC team."

In addition to representing DC footwear and apparel, PJ also rides for Plan B Skateboards, Hubba Wheels, Venture Trucks, Diamond Supply Co., and Jessup Griptape.

Be sure to look for PJ's March Skateboard Mag cover
as well as his welcome ads in The Skateboard Mag, Transworld Skateboarding, Thrasher, Skateboarder
and Slap magazines. You can also check out his latest footage at DCskateboarding.tv.

INTRODUCING RYAN GALLANT’S FIRST SIGNATURE SHOE

Check the dcshoes.com Minisite for Details!


For Spring 2008 DC is proud to release Ryan Gallant’s very first signature shoe. Check out the new minisite at dcshoes.com for the story on Ryan and his pro shoe, including a short podcast video, a gallery with a few skate photos of Ryan, and, of course, info on the shoe.

As with every DC signature shoe, the design and development process of The Gallant was left entirely to the rider. Ryan worked with DC footwear designers to create his ideal skate shoe using the Manteca, a classic DC model, as a base for his design. Ryan said, “I just wanted a plain skate shoe that didn’t blow out and that didn’t feel like a thick sock after a day. I’ve skated in the Manteca and Avatar, so that’s what I talked about when making this shoe… then I just wanted everything thinned out—I like a thin shoe.”

Ryan went on to help develop Super Suede+™ for use as a durable upper material on his shoe. The material is an improvement of DC’s revolutionary Super Suede™, this version further reinforced to prevent blowouts. About Super Suede+™ Ryan noted, “…every kickflip feels grippy and on point. I’ll kickflip a lot of shoes and the stitching will be all peeled back, then there’s the complete blowout… [this material] is tough and lasts."

The black colorway of Gallant's shoe. As far as colors expect a basic black upper / white cupsole combination, a staplecolorway for Ryan, as well as a green/black/white combination.

Rounding out the Spring 2008 Ryan Gallant project is a t-shirt with custom artwork (which is also featured on the shoe’s insole), and, because Ryan wears New Era caps so much, two signature hats. Ryan is the first DC team rider to get a signature hat and tee.

Look for Ryan Gallant’s signature shoe exclusively in skate shops beginning just after the New Year, and stay tuned to the DC Newsclip in the coming weeks for more info. For now, follow this link to see the minisite at dcshoes.com for video, photos, and the story on the shoe.
