I might have been the main person behind the scenes of Street Battle Seattle but without the Sponsors, Donors, Judges, Contestants, and Spectators this event would have never been as successful as it was! So I personally have a lot of people and companies to thank over the course of the last 10 years.

        The easiest to thank is the spectators and contestants, you all know who you’re and thank you for year after year support. Something new for the last SBS was a chance to donate to the event. This surprised me by actually working and we together were able to raise close to $200.

        The incredible people behind the donations would be Chris Hoang, Andrew Eremenco, Abrey Burford, Anthony Rowe, Dee Parker, Zach Smith, and Deana Innocenti. Raising money for street contests is always a problem and the donations really helped! I thank everyone who gave what they could to the contest!

        Some of the other people behind the scenes not directly involved with the event but definitely responsible for the success and pre/post publicity goes out to Erik Allas, Bander Saleh, Jonathon Roulston, Jeremiah Deasy, and Anthony Rowe. These guys did a great job over the years!

       Another person I must mention is Aaron Feinberg. This guy helped judge 3 SBS events and it was a great help. Thanks homie!

       Now probably the most important thing when hosting a contest is the sponsors. Below is a list of every sponsor to date that I could remember over the last 10 years that did what they could to contribute. Sometimes more than others but even the littlest support goes a long way.

 

       ONE, Upheaval Clothing, Skatepile, USD Skates, K2 Skates, Mindgame, Videogroove, Runners Project, Synergy Bearings, Dyna Wheels, Havok Clothing, Symptom Clothing, Six Won Six, Eulogy, Razors Skates, Life Plus, Reign Liners, REMZ Skates, Second Regime, Kizer Frames, Sifika Liners, Vibralux , Ground Control, Esoteric, Able, Heat, Jug, Courage Sports, Aggressive Mall, The Cause, Night Hardware, Rollerblade, Fiction, Deshi, Xsjado, Identity Clothing, Spoiled Brat, England Clothing, 50/50, Ignition, Intuition, Rat Tail, Roller Warehouse, Team Party Down, Be-mag, Under Cover, Budget Threads, Crap Bearings, Blade Wa, and Inline Warehouse.  I thank you again sponsors for all the products, publicity, and money in which you donated to help me support not only my event but our industry and skaters involved!
