Chad Muska #11.

Classic Muska Beatz.

Circa was started in 1999 after Chad left éS. It was backed by Four Star Distribution, which was a snowboard brand that made Forum Snowboards and Special Blend Clothing. Much like his skateboarding, Chad went big with his first pro model on the new company and unleashed this monster of a shoe on the world. It featured true California style construction - whatever the heck that was, the infamous stash pocket in the tongue, and nitrogen filled airbags. The shoe was also synthetic, which is a little surprising to me. Skateboard footwear was a tad more vegan friendly back in the day. I honestly didn't remember the picture of the shoe being so big in the ad. All I was recalling was the handrail photo.

After a week where the temperature barely topped zero, we got a heatwave over the weekend. Things dried up enough so I could do some ollies in the street on Sunday afternoon. It felt nice to roll after two weeks off due to weather.
