Thanks to all who came out and supported this party for Martin. Over $4,000.00 dollars was raised thanks to the generosity of the community. It make me really proud to call the Outer Banks my home where we can live in a community that helps each other. Thanks to all the people that helped make this event possible.
Here are few photos from the party, hopefully more to come.
A mural that Savage team rider Brian Lee painted is in this months “Ride” magazine. It’s a car magazine w/ ICE CUBE on the cover. The centerfold has DAVE MIRRA doing a wall tap in front of his 2 new ralley cars! The mural has been featured in many bmx mags, but this is the 1st time we hit a car mag, we would like to thank Dave for the spot & feel free to check out the pics section on our page to see the wall in it’s entirety.
In other news Savage’s Craig Purkiss just got back from a week of traveling in Costa Rica. Representing from Pavones to Hermosa, he scored epic surf the whole time and made it back just in time to get to the hospital to have his appendix removed. Wish a quick and safe recovery to you.
New designs from Savage Rips will be hitting the shelves this week, along with a very limited edition skate deck called “Guilty”. Check the about page for a retailer near you. We will also be updating the online store this month.

We had great time over the weekend teaching kids how to skate at ODU. Many thanks to Rob And Eric over at Surf and Adventure for setting this thing up and Cody and Noah for teaching the youth what skating is all about. Also thanks to Savage Energy drink for the drinks the ladies loved it! Forest Davis did his thing and helped hold the demo down.
