The Berrics says: “
Trickipedia is not a Trick Tips section, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t going to learn. Trickipedia is the general education page for skateboarding tricks started by the Berrics so that future generations understand the difference between frontside and backside and that there is no such thing as switch nollie half cabs. Each week one of skateboarding’s best will help fill Trickipedia’s pages until it is the most comprehensive reference work on the planet. This week Eli Reed adds Backside Lipslides to the mix.”
ZY Senior Art Director, Christian Acker, has a dope interview on cpluv.com. Check it out.

Fuel TV is in NYC this week shooting a special New York edition of their hit show “The Daily Habit.” The Fuel crew stopped by Zoo York today for a sit down with Dr. Z who showed them his new signature pieces from The Institute Line which drops this Fall. They also enjoyed an inside look at ZY HQ, including a stop in our art department where they got a sneak peek at our soon-to-release graffiti board series by Gorey. From there we hit the streets and Zered brought us to three of his favorite pizza joints-Joe’s, Rosario’s and Artichoke-where we met up with Eli Reed and Ron Deily. Which spot had the best slice, you ask? Artichoke, by a mile. Big thanks to Jordan, Jeff and Patrick from Fuel TV. Catch the NYC edition of “The Daily Habit” the week of April 13th. For more info, visit fuel.tv.
The May issue of Skateboarder Magazine features a “Question Authority” with Brandon Westgate and “Memory Screened” with Aaron Suski. Check it.
