Once the decision is made, the only thing left is one big ol’ bash in The City to cap the year off right. Karl Watson came through for the official handoff along with a host of A-listers from Primitive, adidas and our home turf. Couldn’t get in the door? Catch it all here.

We headed out to North Cacka with Reynolds, Foy, Villani, Henry and the New Balance crew for another unreal weekend. Street sessions, night missions, live sounds and serious demo action, let Rhino be your guide through it all. 

Our guy Franky Villani got a shoe with NB# and spread the love with a blow-out skate jam on the streets of his beloved Santa Ana. This ... is Franky Fest.

New Balance Numeric rallied the team and headed over to Franky’s hometown for a wild pop-up event. A toy hot dog stuffed claw machine? Yeah, they had one. Add an autograph signing and a premiere for his new part and you’ve got one helluva night.
