So 1 week ago we offered up this autographed Jeremy Lusk banner to whoever convinced us they deserved it in the blog comments. Well, we got about 280 comments–way more than we expected! We wanted a true Mulisha fan to win, but also wanted to see a ton of funny shit! Read through the comments, there is plenty of funny shit and we like that!
So…drum roll please…the winner is…13 year old Alan Shao! Alan’s comment was like a lot of other people’s comments, but Alan posted this sick video that he made of him riding in the woods that made the difference! That must have taken some serious time setting up the camera in all those angles, and the YX80 is sick!
And now the honorable mention section! Each of these winners will get a FREE Metal Mulisha tee of their choice and a pair of Osiris Shoes! Click the name to read their comments.
keith - Keith left the first, and arguably the funniest, comment of the whole contest. We almost gave him the win! Lucky for us he didn’t send a video! Keith, we can’t help you with your chronic boners, but we can send you a FREE tee shirt!
Nick - Nick was going to use the banner as a “panty dropper” for the chicks. Sorry you didn’t get the banner, but hopefully a fresh new MM shirt will help get the babes panties off!
Justin - Justin was all over the blog with tons of offensive, funny-ass comments…we liked the David Copperfield one the best! Justin, you earned it!
Josh - Josh is a dumb ass who’s parents think he’s stupid and can’t win anything. They’re probably right about him being stupid, but now he can say he won something–even if it is just a tee shirt!
Kathy Loza - She’s a chick. We needed a chick winner and she always leaves blog comments, so her metalmulisha.com loyalty is now being rewarded! Congrats Kathy!
If you didn’t win this time, well, suck it up! There will be plenty more chances to win FREE Metal Mulisha junk in the near future, so stay on the look out!
ASR Trade Show is the bi-yearly big dick competition between all the lame-ass brands out there in the “industry.” Everyone gets drunk, parties too hard for their britches, and goes home with a moral hangover. Somewhere in between all the debauchery, sales guys try to sell their junk. Most brands don’t sell shit ‘cuz they just plain suck, and make fools of themselves because they’re not used to staying up past bedtime drinking.
The Mulisha is a whole other story. We’ve been partyin’ wide open for 10 years! Now our shit sells itself…which gives us even more time to go BIG! We can’t speak of the after hours stupidity, but here are a few photos from the show and a video of our ESP Guitars giveaway! HUGE thanks to our bro Adam Duce, the bass player from Machine Head, for flying out to party and judge the guitar contest! Our new #1 Mulisha fan “Striker,” AKA “Loose Tooth,” rocked out so hard that Adam awarded him one of the custom painted ESP Mulisha guitar!

And now the photos…enjoy.
EXPN did a loop around the San Diego Convention Center…check their stuff and see how the rest of the show looked.
This chick left us a message on the Metal Mulisha MySpace page with this photo of her windshield…sick! That’s why we’re sending her a FREE Vulgar Display Tank!
If you have any photos of Mulisha stickers plastered on stuff send them to us! metalmulishaclothing@gmail.com
We just might start another photo gallery like the Mulisha Fan Tattoo Gallery!
The newest Metal Mulisha recruit, Nixey Danielson, was an alternate for FMX at X this year. When you’re an alternate you get to ride the course and practice like the qualified riders just in case you need to be ready for the big show. While practicing and getting used to the jumps, Nixey came up short on the big 120 footer. He got weeded to say the least…2 broken legs, 1 broken wrists, still spitting up blood, and plenty of pain meds!
We stopped by to see him in the hospital today and showed him the footage of the crash for the first time. Check the video and leave Nixey some comments below ’cause he will be reading them from his couch! Get well soon buddy.
Holy shit X Games is here again! Looks like it’s that time of year again for more Mulisha World Domination! Seems like just last week the Mulisha was dominatingX Games13.
Here’s the full rider list stolen from EXPN. I’m sure there are additions and subtractions from this. Nixey Danielson is an alternate in FMX, and Josh Hansen might be in Moto X Racing as an alternate.

Check out the latest issue of ESPN The Mag (with Sheckler on the cover) for a cool feature on Brian Deegan and the Metal Mulisha. Writer Chris Palmer was hanging around for a couple weeks to get a good feel for what we’re all about and wrote a killer story, which you can read now on the ESPN Mag site.
All you AZ nutcases get ready…the Mulisha is heading out to your ‘hood! Our favorite store in the AZ, Lithium Clothing, is opening up a new store in Surprise, AZ, and Ronnie Faisst, Seth Enslow, Derek Garland, Wes Agee and hometown hero Nixey Danielson will be hanging out and signing autographs at the Grand Opening this Thursday, July 17!
Is the first round of the AST Dew Tour really over already!? With all the recent events happening as of late, it is hard to keep up with it all. Things didn’t start off so well in the prelims. Twitch was unable to compete due to a dislocated thumb, Potter has a couple miscues in his run, and Garland was getting into the swing of things at his first major event. Lusk, Maddo, a Mulisha newbie, Nixey Danielson made it through to hold it down for the Mulisha in the Finals.
Lusk was completely robbed in his first run! I guess seat grab indy’s, huge KOD flips, and solid regular tricks weren’t good enough to beat riders who had missed tricks in their run? Open your eyes judges! Maddo was looking at home aboard his new Yamaha. His cordova flip over the huge 70 foot dirt table top was nuts! major props to Nixey for his performance this weekend…we are glad this kid came out of hiding and took his skills to the contest scene! While the rankings may not reflect it, everyone threw down in Baltimore! There are still 2 more rounds to go in the points series and anything can happen…it is on in Salt Lake!
