Win This Helmet!

Posted on January 19, 2012 by Freebord

Your board’s all tuned, you’ve got the perfect playlist ready to go and you’re just about to hit that first hill of the day… what’s the last thing you need to remember before you drop? If you’re like us, you strap on your helmet, give your 4ST sticker a little love tap and start bombing! Why? Because we’re around skateboards all day and know full well the consequences of not wearing a helmet.

But that’s just our reason. We want to know why you wear a helmet!

Tell us why you wear a helmet and you could win a free Triple Eight helmet and a bunch of 4ST Decals. We don’t care whether it’s because your mom makes you do it or because you generally value your own health — we hope it’s the latter. Just let us know why it’s important for you to wear a helmet and we’ll pick our favorite entry to send a free Triple Eight helmet and some 4ST decals.

To enter, just write your response in the comments of this blog post before Friday, February 3. You must have taken the 4ST Pledge in order to enter. Click here to take the pledge.

A big thanks to Triple Eight for providing the helmet to run this contest! Check them out online at www.triple8.com.

You guys did it! You really did it!

Last week, we asked riders to show us how they’ve been getting through this snowless winter by creating some sort of crazy, creative, project and everyone came back with some epically weird — but awesome — stuff. But now that it’s snowing out here on the West Coast it’s time to pick the top three projects, all of whom win a free set of Da Blues wheels.

Here are your top three No Snow No Problem projects, in no particular order. Congrats to Tyrone Corbett, Byron Treece and Dallas Phillips! We’ll be hitting you up via Facebook to get your address so we can send you some new Da Blues!

Dallas Phillips — “Bently Poster”

Tyrone Corbett — “No snow, No Problem…make your own snow”

Byron Treece — “No Snow No Problem”
