Go check out DAD's crew on YouTube and Vimeo!

Alec (DAD) Smith - 20 year old photographer from Paola, KS

"I grew up in a small town with no skate spots... somehow skateboarding stuck with me and although my skating wasn’t progressing as quick as others I found a way to stay involved through photography. I get more hyped on someone else landing a trick than I do myself so it only makes sense for me to document it in the process. Since I've been going to school at KU I've met a lot of sick skaters. People need to know they are out there! I aim to capture all the shredding I can and help people to see who's really holding it down in Kansas. Be on the look out for the DAD:LAW crew…" - Alec (with the crutches)

Garrett Rathbone - lipslide

Garrett just won the CBS College Action Sports Championships in Huntington Beach, CA. Representing for KU, he took home the trophy and $1000. Highlights from the comp will be on CBS this Sunday (Aug. 12) at Noon cst. Congrats dude!
