NHS Backdoor Bash 2008

Last Wednesday, March 12th NHS hosted its first ever Open House. The event was freakin' gangbusters. We invited a mess of our top retailers, bros, & pros to come hang out, eat, drink and be merry. Here's what went down:
Some insane skating on this wicked street course we set up:

We even set up a quarterpipe in a moving truck

Whaley set up a Krux Rainbow Rail for the kiddies

Tommy Werner bomb dropped off of the truck, dude is savage.

The Shipping Department hosted an epic Mexican BBQ. Best carne asada ever. Baby Jordy loved it

We rolled 3's with Creature Lee


Everyone went on tours of production, R&D, shipping, & the offices


Everyone screened their own "Backdoor Bash" T-Shirt. Even the Phillips boys.

Even our Night Watchman Wayne came by

We raffled off thousands of dollars worth of NHS goodies

Steve from World Of Toys was stoked!

This chick won a signed Kendall board. Psyched!

We cut an Indy 30th Birthday Cake. KDub loves cake.

Bill from Bill's Wheels was presented with the "NHS Retailer Of The Year" award
Basically this was one of the greatest nights in NHS history. If you weren't there you blew it. A big thanks to all the people that made this possible. Especially you. If you are reading this, Thank You! You're the reason we do what we do. Keep skating, surfing, snowboarding and ruling. We love you guys.

Welcome to the world...

Big contrats go out to Independent Truck Company Art Director Mark Widmann and his wife Courtney who welcomed Shaefer Widmann into the world last Friday night, on leap year day February 29th, just before midnight. Shae weighed in at 7 pounds 2 ounces. Little shredder...
