ZOO YORK is proud to elevate Chaz Ortiz to the professional ranks. Originally recruited by Zoo York legend Harold Hunter; Chaz has earned his way up the ranks and paid his dues. Pick up the inaugural Chaz Ortiz pro-models at officially down skate shops worldwide.
Our good friend Chris Nieratko linked up with Rodney Torres early before Maloof to get some answers out of him…check it:
If you’re in the Chicago area this weekend, make sure you’re at Warp Skateboard Park for the Gatorade Free Flow tour. Z.Y. Official, Chaz Ortiz and Z.Y. Master, Rodney Torres will be guest judges and providing prizes for the top 3 skaters.
Afterwards, the ZOO crew will be hosting a BBQ for all in attendance! See you there!

The event started in NYC has made its way to Poland, check the flyer for details and stay posted.
If you’ve been paying attention to the ZOO YORK blog like you should be, then you know that we were giving away a YEAR SUPPLY OF ZOO YORK PRODUCT. There was a select few chosen to document “all things Zoo’ at this past weekend’s Maloof Money Cup. The chosen ones were called the Z.Y. Field Operatives. After documenting ZOO at the contest, the Operatives then went on to showcase their photos on Facebook, Twitter and any other online avenue they had access to. But there could only be one winner…
And that winner is Jonathan Diaz. Jonathan held it down all weekend at Maloof shooting photos of the ZOO YORK TEAM SIGNING, ZOO YORK PRODUCT RAFFLES and the Z.Y. OFFICIALS and FIELD AGENTS in the contest and on the course. He also documented fans and spectators rocking ZOO gear throughout the event. He not only posted his flicks online, but also sent them out on Twitter as things went down. Check out just a few of Jonathan’s pics from the weekend below. Congrats homie!
