Daniel is the guest official in the SKATE battle between Heath and Lizard King.

Of course he made the right call by wearing the King Stampede Chilly Fitted.

Enjoy if you haven’t already seen it.

Crail Tap takes a look into a day in the life of King Stampede Rider Daniel Castillo.

Picking up dog shit in your Red KS Darkness Hat; just a day in the life of an upright citizen, taking care of his business.

If you previewed the King Stampede lookbook you may have noticed Danny Supa & Daniel Castillo. You also may have noticed someone else who may or may not look familiar too you. His name is Matt Chaffin & he is part of the King Stampede Family. Check the video above for a look at super nasty styles. We are stoked to have him on board.

The King Stampede is everywhere, lurking, fucking with you.

Only 1 month till the KS All Summer In A Day delivery hits stores.

Thanks for the heads up on this Guido.

Kid is nice with it, wait till Summer 2009. Daniel is all over the place. Thanks to Crailtap with the video.

Daniel gets another chance and murders it. Is it a coincidence that he skates so well with his King Stampede Bar Applique New Era, I think not.

Make sure you click the little HQ button up by the YouTube logo to see this in its proper form

If you want to skate like Daniel, there are a few Bar Applique New Eras left. Go get yours.

Daniel Castillo newest member to the King Stampede Family on The Berrics last week.

This kid is nice.

Recently Ray (MH) and myself have been pretty tight travel buddies, no homo. Amongst other things, one of the biggest trends you are seeing, or about to see in the street wear market, is brands jumping into the skate market. This is not a young market like street wear. There are vets in the game and dues to pay. So if you have not lived and breathed skateboarding, I wish you all luck!
I know 4 pros that all skate for King Stampede. Danny Supa, Zered Bassett, Vinny Ponte and our newest pro Daniel Castillo. Stay tuned for the expansion.

We popped over to Dimitry’s pool party for some more Labor Day Festivities. Wee Man was there.

Finished off in style at an all you can eat Korean BBQ. Big ups to Daniel Castillo on the spot. Good day all and all.
