The First Human to Go Digital
By Rob Meronek, Posted on Monday, May 13, 2013
Oops, there's no beer in the Pool Party, so we're all next door at the bar. As I mentioned in the past with most of my favorite magazines going digital, I'm going to one day try to be the first human to go digital where I'll be able to do everything I do without leaving my couch or putting pants on, including avoiding the hassle of having to interact with other humans. The fact that most events have a live broadcast now gets me one step closer to going digital. I'm just going to shoot all my photos from the screen here.Related Article: Vans Pool Party 2013

Rob Dyrdek, Brian Atlas, and SPoT
By Deb, Posted on Monday, May 13, 2013
The night before the Vans Pool Party, we had a long dinner meeting in LA with Rob Dyrdek and Brian Atlas, GM of Street League. We're discussing all kinds of details about skateboard contests and how what they're doing can tie into what we're doing. Dyrdek is a pretty smart numbers and branding guy. I guess you have to be to create what he has. I'm just used to seeing him drive go-carts in a foam pit with a chicken suit on and all that. It was Brian and I at the meeting so we had two sets of "Rob and Brian." We went through a few iterations to make sure the order went SL/SPoT/SL/SPoT for proper photographic representation.Skater Profile: Rob Dyrdek
