"DON'T BLINK": SERGIO KOSCO UPGRADES!!!



 Welcome to Sergio Kosco headquarters, making steps in the right direction is our only course. Thanks to brand president Cory Burks and his brother Stan we brought tons of printing equipment up from Senatoia,MS, and rented out a space to not only brand our own product, but setup our own workstation.


 Just enough space to get the job done, we still have plenty of work to do and another trip down to Senatobia is in the works for more equipment. Excitment is brewing around the brand as a whole, starting from just artwork and ideas.. We now have a printing department, filming/editing department, and the SK skate team.


 It's been a long day, but the entire Sergio Kosco staff are in overdrive... JUNE 1st release! "Don't Blink"



FIRST UP: ISHOD WAIR



Sponsors: Nike SB, Real, Thunder, Spitfire, Fourstar, Reign Skate Shop, Anthony's Cookies, Stance Socks, Monster Energy Drink
Hometown: Hamilton NJ
Stance: Goofy, Age: 20, Status: Pro       



  Street League gears up for what undoubtedly will be a "Don't Blink" season in 2012, they’ve opened up six additional slots for American and European skaters as part of their qualifier series “The Selection” which looks to fill out the 24 man roster. Five of the six Street League openings will be awarded through the U.S. qualifier through a video contest featuring brand new footage from 10 of the most respected American pros released on The Berrics during the first week of April. These short edits will go through a three-pronged voting process with equal weight given to the fans, Street League judges, and the current Street League pros. First up is Ishod Wair whose all business approach is certainly going to put pressure on the other guys in the field. In addition to Wair, the other pros looking for a final spot include Austyn Gillette, Ryan Decenzo, Tom Asta, Matt Miller, Jack Curtin, Vincent Alvarez, Chima Ferguson, Jordan Hoffart and Jimmy Carlin.

NIGEL SYLVESTER: GET SYLVESTER TEASER 1


 I'm at a debate right now with the sergiokosco staff about weather to update sergiokosco.blogspot.com or change to sergiokosco.com. Believe me it's a daily debate, my only issue is that I really don't wanna lose any daily followers with well over 15,000 views so far. No doubt change is good, thats why I'm teaming with Carl Moore of carlemoore.com to make a few updates to our current blogspot, hopefully with this new update and the addition of an online store we'll reach a first year brand release goal of 100,000 views. Working hard on a daily to make this brand better, look for the new SK skate team edit to drop in about two weeks, also look for our first BMX edit of year featuring Ricky Moseley coming soon!!! "Don't Blink"

    THE NEXT BIG THING : FINGERBOARDING!



     Listen to what some of your favorite skateboarders have to say about Red Bull's Newest Professional Athlete – Mike Schneider.. CLASSIC!

     Mike Schneider. Only 19-years old, Schneider, the latest member of Red Bull’s already impressive roster, brings to light what is supposedly a new movement in skateboarding, pushing the traditional boundaries of the likes of casper flips, 360 shove-its and front flip impossibles...

A few of SergioKosco's staff is looking to make the trip to a few spots in Cali around July, but we'll definitely be headed to Fresno to rip the streets with Boogie. Keep going strong Ace Boogie, SergioKosco will definitely be in touch...
