RING! RING! RING! “Hello? Oh, Skullcandy, hi, how nice of you to call. You’re going to be in New York soon? That’s cool. Wait, wait, who’s on the team? And they’re all going to be skating? Shit, twist our arm, we’ll stop by.”
What you just read is a mainly fictitious account of how we ended up filming a day with Skullcandy in New York. Did you like it? Wait, I actually don’t care.
What I do care about is that you watch this video and you witness the team, a team that reads like a damn greatest hits CD, destroying iconic NY spots like the Brooklyn Banks and Seaport ledges.
Watch as these A-Listers stack clips in the couple hours that we filmed on a sweltering 100 degree day.
