Curious what today's current pro skaters have under their feet? Of course you are! Our My Ride series was hugely popular back in the eve-of-internet-content era. Check the Youtube playlist here.

But back to our Dead Air Radio bros (Mitch Hartman and Steve Fletch), both decorated deck collectors, down the Jersey Shore in Atlantic City, checking in with a wide swath of today's pro skaters, asking what they're riding:

"Last weekend , Mitch and Steve met up in Atlantic City to check out the "SOV Takeover', hosted by Ronnie Kessner. While at the event, Mitch rounded up some of the visiting pro's and the duo asked them some questions about their current setups. editors note* apologies about some of the audio, the live stuff is a work in progress. also, check out Tom Asta's youtube ‪@tomasta‬ Maurio McCoy's YouTube ‪@maurcoy‬"

Brandon Westgate, Maurio Mccoy, Tom Asta, Blake Carpenter, and Ronnie Kessner (organizer of the whole enchilada), all stopped by dockside to chop it up with Mitch about wheelbases, popping shields, and more.

Stay up with all the Dead Air Radio episodes. Two dudes who've got experience in the industry, running brands, etc, and tell it like it is.

We had a podcast going with these guys, Podus Operandi, check out some past episodes:
