“I’m really psyched about my new relationship with Skullcandy. The direction they’re going with innovative audio accessories is awesome and something I really want to work with them on. I look forward to a fun future ahead,” said Eric Koston.
The Skullcandy brand is already geared towards skaters, and this announcement will put them back on track with what their original focus of the brand was. They feel that signing a team of this caliber is certainly a step in that direction.
Deals include, but are not limited to, the development of signature product, video and photo shoots, signature events and exclusive content produced in part with the Berrics.com
