Hotbox Pizza is giving NC Skate (NCSU's Skateboarding Club Sport) 15% of all food purchases made on Friday February 3rd. All you need to do is give them the flier above when you make your purchase. The flier can be print off this site, or retrieved from any NC Skate member. Fliers will also be flooding through campus the week before the event.

The evening of the 3rd Hotbox will be the place to be. There will be an in-store Complete Skateboard raffle and giveaways.

Come kickoff the weekend and show your support for NCSU's most beloved club at Hotbox that night... they do serve beer(with a proper I.D.) but we do not get the 15% on alcohol, so make sure you have the munchies too and order some food.

Seasons Greetings

Just a little holiday snippet. Support our cause to facilitate skateboarding at college campuses everywhere.

That... is when the world... will end.

Sometimes destruction is the greatest form of creation...

And sometimes destruction is just plain old destruction.

When me and Dan tried this double set the other night we both got worked to the bone.

It's a crazy feeling when your friend is getting wrecked on the same exact thing you are.

It did not feel like we were trying rob each other of the glory of successfully taming this beast.

A good metaphor would be if you came up on a friend, or brother, getting into a slug-fest with some kook... you get his back and deck that fool! no hesitation, no matter how big the dude is.

This ad for our first full-legth skate video 'Brick Magic' is simply a testament to our dedication and love for skateboarding and our friends. 

Some people are born with tragedy in their blood...

Others are driven by it.

C'mon Give Us Some Lovin'...

With Nc Skate making moves we need support. As a fairly new club (and as skateboarders) it's damn hard to get funding from the school, so we are looking to the outside world.

Help has come from all over the skate community and we thank all of you.

The NC Skate Club is has been invited to a National Collegiate Skateboard Association contest in Las Vegas this April, as well as the Berrics Agenda trade show. We are currently doing everything we can to take advantage of these opportunities to represent and promote our club, our supporters, and our mission.

You can help by donating at nc skate donate . Donors will receive Nc Skate stickers (shown above), a thank you letter, and even an exclusive t-shirt.

Even if you cannot afford to donate you can still help us immensely by going to My EDU and signing up your email. It's safe, free, and anyone can do it. We receive $1 for every email that signs up under Nc Skate.

If make an effort to support us, you are not just helping a bunch of college kids run a club;

YOU ARE HELPING TO PROGRESS THE SKATEBOARD COMMUNITY IN THE DIRECTION OF THE SKATERS' MINDS

-RAW CONNECTION

Speed Guns, Ghetto Rigs, and Pick-Ups...

The highlights from our last contest hosted by Simplistix. The homecoming of skateboarding brought out some rippers for the manny mania. Despite the janky boxes that were just finished the day before the event, these guys still managed to throw down some bangers.

The heavy hitters from manny mania included Chris, Logan, Diego, Jordan, Colin, a dude-wit-red-sneeks, and The Reigning Champ, John Keiper.

The second part of the video is clips from our first ever 'Fastest Fliptrick Challenge'.

Top gear performers were Nick White and Logan with 19mph kickflips, Charlie Brown with 17mph tre, and Doug Womack with 17mph hardflip.

It was wild.

Thanks to all of our sponsors and Peter Fradella from Rival for the edit.

We will have more pics and highlights up soon because so much went down. It's gettin' better all the time- you do not want to miss the next one.
