Stereo Sound Agency Presents: Adventures in Stereo: Atlanta Stereo Skateboards co-founders and owners Jason Lee & Chris Pastras take a trip to Atlanta, Georgia for an Adventure in Stereo. "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life..." For myself, that's been skateboarding and the culture that surrounds it. I often don't notice I haven't taken a day away from my computer or off my board in 2-3 weeks, sometimes more. For me, "working for the weekend" doesn't exist. This is it, this is me, and I love it. The MailChimp crew rules, and Atlanta has so much soul and history... I was in awe and inspired just rolling through the streets. Special thanks to Calvin...

Jason and I were invited to visit MailChimp.com in Atlanta Georgia and join them for a "Coffee Hour" lecture and Q & A for about 100 employees and a few hundred more watching via live stream from their desks. When we first got asked to do this lecture, I was utterly intimidated... What would we talk about? What if we sucked? What if what we said had no meaning? There is always some level of fear in everything I do in front of a camera or an audience. But I think the key is to reign in that fear and turn it into a focused motivation. And in all the fearful chatter in my mind I arrived at a super...
For episode 28 we visit Chris Pastras’ local curb spot for some slappies, and then we go Diggin’ in the Crates to 2003 with some CLASSIC footage of co-captains Jason Lee and Pastras skating Steve Berra’s old skatepark (pre-Berrics). This was one of the early sessions when the boys were first bringing back the Stereo brand! Extra special thanks to Nate Van Dusen for capturing the moment. "Skating again in 2003, after being away from it for 8 years, was like being born again. I had no idea how much I missed it until I was back on a board. And then Chris and I started skating together again. It was an incredibly exciting time, and it only made sense to...
New Richer Poorer Athletics Skate Video // Fall 2015 Skateboarding is all about exploring new spots and new parts of town, so for the Fall/Winter 2015 Richer Poorer Athletics Lookbook, we decided to travel south to San Pedro and visit good friend and skateboard legend Cooper Wilt. Taylor Caruso, Christian Maalouf, Daniel Shimizu, and Stereo's Chris Pastras, follow Coop's lead as we start the day carving the bowl at Peck Park. Next we hit Pedro’s foundation spot...lots of options there! Afterward we grab some fresh seafood down at the Wharf, and slappy some killer curbs right by the water. Then end the killer day at the Korean Bell of Friendship for a scenic sundown session. Many thanks to Cooper for making...
Before Stereo, there was Blue. Chris Pastras, "Spoon & Fork" Blue Skateboards Reissue from 1992 with art by Andy Jenkins is coming soon. Shops contact Syndrome Dist (760) 560-0440 to carry. Check this & other new decks on the Catalog page. "Super hyped on this 1992 Andy Jenkins graphic reissue from our our Blue Skateboards days. Blue was the precursor to Stereo Skateboards for those of you to young to know. My friend Don Bruno turned me on to a diner book back then that inspired the idea for the graphic. Plus Don and I did a whole lot of late night diner visits in Jersey. Once Andy touched the rough idea it was an instant classic. The board is coming...
For this, our second installment of Monster Children’s Table Talk series, presented by Richer Poorer and hosted by yours truly, we feature prolific artist and good friend Geoff McFetridge. Besides being a hugely inspirational art world character, Geoff is a ripping skateboarder!! So we got in some slappies to prove it, and then had Geoff give us a one of a kind all-access tour though his studio, and through his very detailed process. Let's just say I will no longer feel comfortable buying my pre-mixed acrylic tubes at Blick. Geoff is a serious Scientist of Color! His work and process will blow you away, I know it did me. Thank you again Geoff for the access and for one of...

Christian Maalouf, Daniel Shimizu, Taylor Caruso, and myself grabbed a morning coffee in our neighborhood of Echo Park, and bombed the hill leading into Elysian Park, it’s quite a wake up! Trouble opening your eyes? Bomb a huge hill! It works. Then we headed to the stairs in the intro of the video. Little Echo Park history on those stairs, they lead up to the old estate of the silent film star W.C. Fields, an estate which later belonged to skate legend Christain Hosoi. I remember walking up them to skate Christians vert ramp w. Jason lee and Mark Gonzales in ’90-’91 when I first moved to California. In fact, the vert clips in Blind Skateboards “Video Days” were filmed...
