Check out the amazing Sean Malto and his new commercial at Etnies’ Website.

You had to remember surfer and skater Christian Fletcher. Him and Barney were always surfing with those spiked shoulder pads, I guess trying to look like Kiss. Anyway, haven’t heard about him in a while, anyone got any good news? You can always e-mail me at sales@warehouseskateboards.com or comment on the blog.

Intro by Terry Snyder: etnies Art Director
We aired out a lot of ideas leading up to S&C, but it was Mike Manzoori’s dream sequence storyboard filled with a cardboard city that had us sold. It fit what we wanted to do visually—the photos and video would be equally striking, and it was “do-able.” The props were lightweight, mostly recycled, the unknown obstacles could be styled to match our set, the video had a beginning, middle, and end, and it was guaranteed to be unique. The stage was set.

Enter Sean Malto… the perfect person to carry out the lighthearted storyline. The story actually starts at TransWorld’s warehouse when he receives a package and finds himself getting sucked into Boxton Square, a cardboard dream city full of places to skate. It was a labor of love for all of us, and it shows through in the photos and video. We couldn’t have asked for a better video director and crew, photographer, set designers, support staff, or team of skateboarders. Everyone ripped.
