Maybe you could be on the alpine wall too! New Photo's up today.

 New pics are now up on the wall at Alpine. The old Stephen Timms skateboard shot has been replaced with a newer, more up to date shot. It was taken by the famed Diego Valdez and it's a well known spot in Reston.
Also a new banner of alpine's own Brian Nero is up. Brian has worked at alpine for 4 years and is at Windells this summer getting his shred on. This pic was taken at Seven Springs this winter.
Do you have what it takes to get on the wall? We would love to have more local riders showcased in big print. So send us your pics of Skiing-snowboarding-or skating. But make sure you have it in hi rez if we pick yours. We can't blow up pics this big unless they are in a high format.
Send them to chris@alpineskishop.com, and label them Wall shots.
Thanks, and we look forward to seeing what you have!

Stephen Timms Pro Model- Now available at Alpine

Those that know me know I love 80's skateboard graphics. So it should come as no surprise that we have chosen the infamous "agent orange" graphic from Vision skateboards to be re done for Stephen Timm's first shop deck. Stephen is tremendous talent and has been pushing skating for years. We are super proud to have Stephen Skating for us and we couldn't be happier with his new deck.
So support local skateboarding and local skaters. Shop decks available in lots of great sizes. See you soon.

Bad news and alpine team rider stephen timms came in a grabbed his alpine deck today. Stephen has every alpine deck ever made up on his wall. We love this kid. Keep killing it and thanks!

Sound Of Skateboarding Featuring our very own Stephen Timms

A film project by Tyler Vitello. Here is his write up on this cool Clip.
"An Experimental Clip I filmed, edited and directed as my end of senior year project for my TV production class. It all started with an idea to make a skate edit focused on the simplicity of it and to focus on lighting. The idea then evolved into an idea to sample skate sounds and mix it into a song to have playing as the sound track. Once I had a solid idea for the song and skating, I then wanted to take it a step further so I incorporated a voice over/interview aspect to it. I am really happy with the way it turned out. It is recommended you view with a pair of headphones on so you can absorb the subtle sounds of the skateboard mixed in the song. Enjoy! "

Silver sent Stephen a new set of trucks today. So look for Stephen to be repping some new M class raw 8.25's next time you see him skating around. The new M class is supposed to be the best truck Silver has produced.

Skateday BBQ at Alpine #1

Alpine's first ever skateboard BBQ went off today and it was awesome. With help from our friends over at NOVA ramps, everyone that came had a great time. The launch ramp was the highlight of the day. Aaron at Nova said he had just made it, and didn't know it would be so popular. It was set up all over the place. This is the first round of shots from today. The launch was set up over a grassy knoll and some big tricks were thrown. Imoh is shown above throwing a nice frontside.
