Tyler Bledsoe.

Quasi.

Tyler rode for the Alien Workshop and is one of the three pros on Mother. However, due to legal issues in the form of a cease and desist order, Chad Bowers was recently forced to change the name and went with Quasi. Luckily for him, the company didn't have much in the way of logos so it's not a huge deal from a graphic design standpoint. Does he know about the band Sleater-Kinney's Janet Weiss and Sam Coomes have with the same name?

In other Tyler news, he recently picked up Huf as a footwear sponsor after riding for Etnies for a long time. He is still on Fourstar.

Brandon Westgate #2.

Cranberry bog.

Longtime Zoo Yorker Brandon Westgate left the New York based company to ride for Element this past April. Hopefully we continue to see footage of him and he doesn't fall into the vortex that causes some planeteers to disappear. I don't think we have anything to worry about with Brandon. He seems to have a good head on his shoulders and a solid work ethic.

Gary Rogers makes me laugh a lot.

Jason Dill #9.

"It's like that Chinese proverb: may you live in interesting times. It's always been interesting it seems like, but it was a bit stagnant about a year and a half ago. I feel like it was board series, board series, board series and then it's, like, "Oh have you seen the latest board series from the people that make the board series?" I love skateboarding. I'm a fan. I watch it to get the feeling I like out of it, like seeing the people I like. It seems to really still matter what someone's board sponsor is. So that's great. That's good. I'm afraid of a day when your board sponsor ins't part of your identity. So I'm glad that still matters."

Clark Hassler & Paul Rodriguez.

Going back to the country.

Clark got abducted by aliens or was sucked into a portal so his part in Oververt was similar to what Randy Colvin had in Love Child. Or maybe he's chilling at PRod's house.

Ben Raemers.

Wax Idol.

Ben closes out Oververt with a part that has a lot of transition shredding to go with a monster boardslide in a ditch. He's from Colchester in Essex, England. Ben used to be on the Cube a few years ago and since turned pro for the Panda. He rides for Volcom, Indy, and Converse.

I've been a space cadet and it's felt like I've been phoning things in this week. Up next will be assorted stuff from 2008 and 2009.

Caswell Berry #2.

Ladykiller.

Caswell managed to film enough tricks to share a part with new am Blue Turner in Oververt. He suffered a few nasty injuries that limited his time on the board.
