“Some words from the heart… I would like to personally thank everyone that supports blading, because you keep me shredding. Especially, everyone that came out for the release session. I would personally like to thank Eulogy and Isaac for being awesome and having faith in me. And a BIG thanks for Greg Kieffer from Tri State Skate for letting the release session go down! Shredlife.” - Franco Cammayo

On … Greg Kieffer, owner of Tri-State Skate shop in Hillburn, NY, threw a wheel release session for Franco Cammayo to celebrate the drop of his new pro wheel from Eulogy. Franco has been loyal to Eulogy and his NYC roots for his entire skating career. He is known across the world for his unique trick styling and genuine personality. He is an advocate in his community and maintains a reputation as one of the industry's most influential representatives. Most will agree that Franco’s pro wheel is long over due and definitely well deserved.
The turn out for the release session was phenomenal. NYC powerhouse Austin Paz came to show his support and throw down for the edit. The wheels were in such high demand at the release that the shop only had 10 pair to sell to the spectators. Well, these 10 sets sold out within 15 minutes… and even Franco couldn’t ride his new wheels during the session!
But this didn’t stop him from shredding the whole park and proving that he is a most deserving representative of Eulogy’s newest pro wheel…
Big congrats to Franco!!! well deserved, and kinda about time if you ask me :)
