This place was far from the Hotel but definitely a place we wanted to visit. Phil and I jumped on the bus to document it. On the bus, Nike 6.0 and the Nike’s Brand Guests. The wall is HUGE. Imagine a wall that spans from SF to NY. That’s how long this thing is. CRAZY.

Passed by the Birdsnest. Place was amazing.

Then we headed to the Great Wall..

6OH Team.

Name them..

Going UP / Going Down

Absolutely Amazing.

Nike Sportswear party. 4 Rooms + 1 Private = HUGE.

Doing it Huge. Check out the wall size for perspective from photos seen throughout the web. Thats Phil, Me and Mikey from INQMNDS.

Video Room

Shingo representing very big on Video.

Boy, today was crazy. There was an earthquake that hit China today and we felt it all the way in Beijing. It was 7.8 on the Richter Scale. That means it was freekin HUGE. We were swaying for about 40 seconds. I thought something was wrong with my equilibrium but when I looked up and saw all the lights swaying. HUGE.

Anyways, we’re off to Day 1 for Nike Guests to see what they’re here for… Just so you know, I will not be showing off any photos of the event until tomorrow. The will be on the main page of the site as well as many blogs and news sites around the globe.

My next watch.. Sweetness.

Jamie O’Shea and Eddie. Chillin at 100.

So to welcome all of Nike’s guest (influencers, actors, artists), Nike threw a dinner at the infamous Lam Club. Honestly, I’ve never been to a bigger venue in my life. It’s like the ground floor of the Wynn Hotel in Vegas but no gambling. Huge.

A speech from the creative mind of Richard Clark.

Mmm. Food. Pumpkin soup? Lamb Chop.. There was about 8 -10 dishes. Crazy..

Our table consisted of Parkes (Nike), Aaron Rose (Beautiful Losers), Paul (Stussy), Clark (Nike), Phillip, and the infamous Eddy (undftd). Good conversations throughout..

Paul, Richard, and Aaron. The food was mesmerizing..

Photos from the event tonight. Til later..

So the ride to Beijing wasn’t exactly smooth sailing. Our friends who were suppost to connect from NYC were stuck in the tarmac for 55 minutes waiting for an open spot to depart. This made them miss our flight so we hopefully will be seeing them soon. I have to say, the landing on the plane was horrible. Some lady a few rows back threw up and got out of her seat and headed for the bathroom 15 seconds before touchdown. I eneded up getting stopped by immigration for giving one dude the evil eye.. No eye contact and you’ll sail smoothly!

Ju enjoying the fruits of business class..

Almost there…

Immigration was gnarly.

Outside wasn’t as polluted as I expected. In fact, LA seems alot worse. Phil, John (SB), Ju, and Sierra (PR 6.0) waiting for the Nike bus.

Not too shabby, eh..

Tons of construction going on all over Beijing as the city prepares for the Olympics

Downtown Beijing reminds me of Shibuya.

Li Ning, China’s 3rd largest shoe manufacturer. I say rename it.

I am on an adventure to Beijing and taking Phillip along with me. For work of course so I can’t release too many details but you’ll all see what’s going to be going down in a few days.. PLEASE STAY TUNED. It’s going to be AWESOME.

Beijing’s National Stadium. Host of the Olympics.

1st win this season for Valentino Rossi at Shanghai’s GP race over the weekend. Awesome race. Crazy crash from Lorenzo. Watch it..

The drive wasn’t exactly fun alone but I did figure out the new car in those 10 hours to give Cin an overview today. Some more photos of the scenic trip.

Drilled right through this mountain

Mount Shasta, a smaller mountain and Weed, California.

That mini mountain which isn’t so mini when you’re next to it. Very nipple-ish.

Hit nighttime.

The ride with rims thanks to CS3. VW in the back.

As you drive from Oregon to California, you’ll notice a ton of wood manufacturing plants. Check it and save a tree before there’s non left.

It starts from this..

to this..

to this..

and then to building your row homes, to this..
