Welcome to the first Emerica monthly online contest to earn free Emerica gear! It’s simple. All you have to do is provide the correct answers to all of the 10 trivia questions about Emerica pro Erik Ellington. Everyone who answers all 10 correctly will be entered into a list.

All of the answers to these questions can be found on the Emerica and Baker Web sites. Good luck, and happy fact finding! Contest ends May 31, 2005.
One of our elusive Emerica Web elves just wrote up a nice, funny review of Kauai Media Skate. Which other skate-oriented Web sites should we review? If you have one, or know of a good’un, let us know.

Emerica pro Heath Kirchart has been keeping it mellow, skating around LA. His foot has been injured for a little while, so he’s taking it easy. Heath should be back at it full force really soon.

What is a scumstache? Some say it’s a scummy, dirty-looking mustache, and others say it’s merely patchy, pre-pubescent peach fuzz. The word "scumstache" is not in Webster’s dictionary, but Kevin "Spanky" Long sure knows how to sport one, and now Pharmacy Board Shop is giving you a chance (excuse) to grow one, too! Whatever your scumstache is like, Pharmacy wants to see it!
They’re giving you until June 30, 2005 to grow your best scumstache and send them a photo. If your ’stache is worthy, you’ll have the chance to have your lucky mug plastered on their site, and the Grand Prize Winner will get two pairs of Spanky’s upcoming Emerica pro model shoe, the KSL-1!
Twenty-five Runners Up will also receive a limited-edition Pharmacy scumstache T-shirt! Pharmacy wants to start a scumstache revolution, so put away the razor and get your scumstache growing!
Enter the Spanky Scumstache Challenge at the Pharmacy Web site.

Now’s the time for number seven in our ongoing series of Emerica Blab interviews in which you, the ever-loyal Kids, get to ask your favorite Emerica team rider that burning question you’ve always wanted to know.
This month’s subject is Emerica pro Leo Romero—upcoming banger brother and beyond-excellent wood pusher. Without further ado, get your bad self into the Blabs section and ask away. Before you ask anything, however, be sure to read Leo’s bio and interview first! Also, please keep your questions short and to the point.
Emerica pro Andrew Reynolds has been filming for (and editing) the Baker video. Today, Andrew and his wife Christiana, his nieces, and fellow Emerica pro Kevin "Spanky" Long spent the day at Disneyland to take some time off from filming and have a little fun.
