Dear Sector Nine, I Love You

I would like to take a quick period of time to talk about the most under-rates longboard company out there, Sector9. They have spread and pushed the sport of longboarding so much, and we need to thank and respect them.

I recently looked at their website, and I was very impressed with what I found. A whole page on safety was pretty nifty. I also found this page of videos. If you dont watch all 3, atleast watch the intro to the short bus chronicles teaser, it blew my mind. They sponsor some kickass riders too, like Noah Sakamoto, Patrick Rizzo, JM Duran and Erik Lundberg to name a few.

So next time you think of Sector9, just remember this. Oh, and don't forget this, that jank's sick.
