CAUTION WET FLOOR DUNK HIGH PREMIUM QS. ON SALE NOW!

The entire concept of silo is based upon our clientele. I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing without the moral and financial support of my amazing customer base. I love my job and have hit the ground running since day one, but it is the people that motivate me to continue with this project. That’s obvious I know, to say that without customers I wouldn’t be here, that is of course the case! But there are a few times throughout the year I am reminded it’s not about the money, it’s about supporting skateboarding, educating the customer, and just trying to bring something new to the table. The relationships formed through this daily process are what make it all worthwhile.

Last week I posted up the link that Aaron did for us featuring the ROUNDUS tour. I am so happy with how it turned out and it means a lot that he took the time to present our humble spot to fresh eyes through his work.

Since then Ive had two other friends pop in and give us some good www. PR.

Brandon of MAKE BELIEVE is a native whom I’ve seen grow a lot in the last few years and is killing it right now. He stopped in last weekend and wrote up a flattering post on his blog ALL WORK NO SLEEP. Always appreciate the kind words and you can look forward to more from him in the future.

I have to shout out Key-mo as well. Zach grew up here and has recently traveled the world over teaching his craft. He is currently living in Omaha but treks back often. He stopped in earlier this week and snapped a grip of photos of the store for his blog, check it HERE. Another solid set of photos and the nicest comments, I can’t ask to be represented any better.

There is a tight group of dear friends who make up the silo family and I just wanted to say thank you to all those as well who are a part of what happens here. I didn’t make a big scene of it, but last month marked our 9th anniversary at the Locust St. location, and it feels like only yesterday we decided to open these doors. I have the best job in the world and always look forward to what tomorrow has to bring.

Thanks Again.
