First Tribute Tee

We're finally introducing the first of many U.B.C. tribute tee's. These shirts are meant to pay tribute to people and musicians that help define our board culture.

If you don't know about BIG YOUTH you rally need to check em' out

I found these quotes about 70's Reggae Rocker and DJ Big Youth on rior-usa.com

"His front teeth inlaid with red, green and gold gems, Big Youth (Manley Buchanan) is probably the best known and most popular of all reggae DJ's, with a career that's been going strong since the early '70's. He gave toasting a style."
- Trouser Press

"The aura of ganja-fogged sweltering summer afternoons which defines a pleasurable reggae concert is rarely captured on recorded material. Jamming is a pleasant exception. The vibes he laid down are killers." - Reflex




also we'll be trying more colorways with this design soon so keep checking back

RAD KISS

So we've been working on a new girls shirt concept. If you have ever seen the 80's BMX movie RAD then this will all make sense, if you haven't then I feel bad for you and you need to check it out as soon as your done reading this. Basicly I was watching RAD the other day and saw a shirt one of the BMX Pro Riders Groupies (one of Bart Taylors chicks) was wearing during the big Helltrack race scene and it inspired me to do a u.b.c. version of the shirt, we put a design together and then in true RAD fashion decided to dye the shirts ourselves (just like Crew Jones does for his Rad Racing Brand shirts) I haven't hand dyed a shirt since I was like 10 so the whole dye process was so much fun I decided to document it, so check out the pictures below. The shirts are made of 100% combed cotton and will be available on the officall u.b.c. site www.unitedboarding.com by the end of the week. So ladies get em while their HOT!

Recap

Well we didn't win the world series but e came damm close i think we should have won and the umps we'r gettin a pay off becouse they we're making the most rediculus calls, owell we'll do it next year... in all honestly I'm kinda glad it's finnal over october was a long drunken month with games going into the 1am time frame on tuesaday night it they can really take a toll on you plus the stress factor during every game wow. Then we rolled straight into halloween and that was good time if you've every been to the old north east of St pete than you know what it's like basicly it looks like universal studios came into the neighborhood and decorated not just the houses but the streets too it's crazy. Unfortanitly I had to miss fest up in gainsville, but pirate mike was there the whole weekend so I'll get the lowdown from him, and thankfully Drag the River & Two Cow Garage did a show at new world brewery in ybor thursday night so I got to see 2 of the bands that would've missed at fest. The drag show I went to was rad, not too crowded played tons of songs including Hybrid Moments (misfits) and two cow killed it too, all in all it was a good show, but that the last time I drink Pabst all night. Don't get me wrong it's a fine beer but thats the most pbr I've ever drank in one night and haven't had a beer hangover like that in a long long time I think I'm just gunna stick with my Coors. Thats just about it for now gotta get a little rest. It seems like almost the entire U.B.C. crew is jumping on a cruise ship headed to cozamel mexico next week for Warrens bachlor party. I got a feeling things are gunna be out of hand the enitre time and I'm taking a camera.

by the way we did get a couple pics from halloween the other night I was a body builder and claire was a aerobics instructor you shou7ld be able to tell from the costumes that we we're going for an 80's look

Wednesday, October 1, 2008

Whats been going on

Just wanted to make a quick post it's been awhile but things have been crazy. A recap on the last few weeks go about like this. Waves, party, more waves, better waves, a couple days of really good waves with the whole crew, fishing, camping, a little skate session with T-man and an amazing show last night... and of course and I didn't take a single picture of any of it. I swear I'm gunna start using the camera any day now, the surf has been so good on both sides of florida it's been unreal I tried to take some pics but the same thing that happend last time I just never got out of the water but the gulfster.com boys did a great job of documenting it so check out those pics if you haven't already

www.gulfster.com

Now about the show last night in tampa all I can say is WOW it was one of the coolest things I have ever been a part of. It was The revival Tour with Tim Barry (Avail), Chuck Ragan (Hot Water Music) & Ben Nichols (Lucero) all doing a stripped down acoustic show together at one point Tim Barry's mic craped out and rather then waiting for the sound guy to fix it he just came down off the stage and played a song in the middle of the crowd (I shoulda taken a pic but I didn't wanna be that guy). After they each played a solo set they all got on stage together and played each other songs if the show is coming to you area I seriusly sudgest going.

All right I rap this up, we're working on some new designs that will be available hopefull in the next week and they are definitly the next level for U.B.C. keep checking back.

I think thats everything for now.
By for now
Jay

oh yeah I think the chirstmas party is a go this year

AS YOU CAN SEE!!!!



Well I've been waiting all summer for a good old fashion huricane to come rolling thru town. This storm by the looks of it isn't anything too crazy and our area (727) won't be getting the landfall but I guess it will have to do. Some gnarly bans should pass by though. I'm heading to the store now to stock up on beer and ice and some food and a little water. Hopefully I'll have fun couple of days sitting in my backyard drinking beers with the crew and watching a crazy storm roll on thru. If ya wanna over the top report on the storm make sure you watch the weather channel and check out our boy JIM CANTORE, I get a huge kick out him every time.

Since Cinco De' Mayo is on a Monday this year we are holdin off on the party till this saturday. It's in the backyard again if ya need dirctions give me a ring. We're trying to make it as authentic as we can with decorations music and of course food.... for example a Salsa Bar, Tuns of Varius Nacho's and THE WORLDS LARGEST MARGARITA. I hope everybody can attend it's gunna start in the aftrnoon so get there earlylike around 3 pm

The only request we have is you either bring a bottle of tequila or a six pack of mexican beer (your choice)

B'day Recap

The birthday extravaganza is over and it was a good one thanks everybody for helpin me celebrate... the backyard bbq was a blast not to crowded and more than enough food I spent my entire bithday afternoon smooking ribs (should have taken a picture) everything turned out rad a couple of serius horse shoe sessions went down and me and matt invented a new shot called the whiskey float when i eventualy open my bar it will be the house shot for sure. Write this down

Whiskey Floats:
Take a small glass fill it with 1 shot whiskey (preferbly Jack) then fill the remainder of the glass with ice cold (the colder the better) root beer we reccomend IBC stir it around then drink..... please be carefull they taste like milkshakes and you could easly down a bottle of whiskey and not even relize it we almost did.

The next morning we woke up and took the blue jungle out King fishing and didn't cath a single fish, still had a blast though. We were heading back in around sunset and out in the middle of the ocean was a huge happy Birthday Balloon just floating around it was crazy, thats about it..... till next year

P.S.
I'm getting a camera any day now and will start doccumentin all this crap for y'all
