Raymond Molinar #2.



WKND.

It's a week of Popwar. Popwar was around for a few years in the middle 2000s. The brand was supported by Giant Distribution and was created after New Deal ended. Yogi Proctor handled the fine art. Cairo Foster, Kenny Reed, Chad Tim Tim, and Rob Gonzalez were initial pro riders. The company was originally going to be called Populis, but they opted for the more engaging name of Popwar.

Raymond started WKND with Grant Yansura in 2014. He had been riding for Stereo prior to launching a small board brand. Raymond also rode for Habitat after Popwar ended. The team for WKND includes Johan Stuckey, Christian Maalouf, Alex Schmidt, Taylor Caruso, Andrew Considine, and Trevor Thompson. Former Toy Machine am Jordan Taylor and possibly Ausytn Gillette are on the team as well.

Seu Trinh shot the sequence.
