Moves and Stuff

So I guess I should mention some of the new team changes that have happened. NSS has added Tom Knox, Brian Sumner and Chad Knight to their pro team(BIG news, I know.) And apparently Tony Hawk and Bam along with their signature shoes have been removed from the Adio site...Is it over? I hope so. Also should mention your boy got a link on You Will Soon...Its almost as rad as that time I got something posted on Crailtap. Big Ups to Watson and the crew at YWS...Awesome.
