NIKE RELEASES FIRST SHOES FOR SKATEBOARDERS



Nike, the leading brand in shoes and sneakers has finally released its shoe dedicated to skateboarders. How cool is that? With sneakers designed specifically for various other sports including gold ( um huh?), it's a no-brainer that this was due. 

“In skate, your feet are your hands,” Carboy said in a statement. “The more feel you have for your board, the better positioned you are to pull off a trick. With Nike Hyperfeel, we’ve focused on ways to create a symbiotic relationship between your feet and your board.”

You see how the guy in the gif flipped the board with his shoes on his feet? So Nike is saying that their shoes, created with Flyknit Technology can actually do more than that? Well it does according to creator of shoes, pro skateboarder, Eric Koston.

“The Flyknit collar is about fit and sensory,” Koston said in a statement. “You feel your shoe connected from your ankle all the way down. Subconsciously, you feel the shoe doing what you want it to do.”
 Interesting, maybe this can change the path my life is taking just by walking with the shoes. The Nike Koston 3 is in stores now and retails now for of course more than $120. Which honestly, on a budget, I do not spend more than $120 on a pair of sneakers. BUT for those of you interested, check them out. They look pretty cool.

And oh yea, girls look pretty damn good on skateboards, just ask wonder-woman.

BLAC CHYNA GIVES BIRTH DURING MANNEQUIN CHALLENGE

So everyone is doing the new video challenge called, The Mannequin, where everyone freezes in the video. So Blac Chyna thought it would be cool to do it while being in labor. Hmmm... Okay, well not literally. However, shortly afterwards, Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian welcome a beautiful baby girl, Dream Kardashian, into the world on November 10th. Of course social media didn't tell well to the name, Dream, but I like it. It's different. I mean, people have to take into consideration that baby Dream was not born into just an average family, but a family of Kardashian's with a cousin named "North-West", a brother that is also a step-cousin (I think ??), then an aunt, who is actually a step-mom...?? Okay, that's neither here nor there but you get the point. Usually, babies are born into that awkward phase where they look like no one in particular, yet everyone at the same time. At least in my eyes, Dream favors first-time daddy, Robert Kardashian. Wh...

BOW WOW CHALLENGE: FUNNIEST MEMES

Once again, rapper/actor Shad Moss (Bow Wow/ Lil Bow wow) was caught "insta-lying" again, which created a challenge called "#BowWowChallenge" by social media. It all started with Bow Wow posting a picture about him catching a flight to NYC. The picture he posted was of a private jet and a fancy car outside of it, pretty much indicating that he was about to hop on it. It all went down hill when a fan of his happened to be following Bow Wow's post on IG and saw he posted he was on a private jet (though he didn't state it directly). Once the coach passenger noticed Bow Wow was lying, he took a picture and uploaded to social media, which then prompted a mass influx of people searching the internet to find where Bow Wow had stolen the picture from. Ultimately, they found it and started calling Bow Wow out on his lies. Even rapper, 50 Cent took part in the challenge. LOL

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY: FLY TATTED SKY

Do you watch Black Ink NY? If so, did you notice how Sky's confidence level went to over "a hunnit" after she got the plastic surgery she has been dyin gto get. I mean she always had an outgoing personality, but now "it's all the way up." Congrats to Sky and that new body. What I love is that she didn't go too overboard like most people with injections/implants. Before : After:
