Uprise and NikeSB




Mike Ruta, Uriah Ruta, Ken Keistler, Stu Jacobs and Stevie "Dread" Snyder... looking real good dudes! This past July I happened to be lurkin' at Uprise while Todd Jordan shot photos for NikeSB's "Support Your Local" campaign. Was looking forward to seeing the ads and heard yesterday that they're circulating in a bunch of magazines. Growing up with the Ruta family and knowing what Uriah has accomplished with Uprise and how much the shop does for skateboarding in Chicago makes me proud. This one is going in my archives.
