Get Off Your Computer and Go Skate! *Single Second Special*

So if you remember a wee while back I spoke about "The Other Guy". Well... Add another guy to the equation and you have Single Second.

The two guys (brothers) that make up Single Second, are Trevor (left) and Derek (right).



I started following these guys after I had seen them on another site collaborating on a T-shirt. This is the first thing that attracted me to them. I just really liked that design, not only was it a play on the "Return of the Living Dead" cover. It also just looked top notch.



After that I followed them on Twitter, basically to get a feel of what they were like and what they were about. This led me to their site.
Single Second has got to be, one of the most chilled out posting sites I have been on and yet not, all at the same time. Every time you go on, you are usually greeted by some form of music post involving hardcore or some form of metal music and a lot of casual skating or BMX-ing and things to that effect. And yet the way that is put up and brought forward, I don't know what it is, it just seems... relaxed. I can browse away at this stuff and not feel pressured to go look at posts immediately, but still at the same time you want to go back and check them out.
From the site they also had a store section, which obviously had to be explored. I was not disappointed in the slightest.
In and around that time, they had a mix of different seasons Tees up. They had some stuff from Spring/Summer09 right through to Spring/Summer10. But lucky for me at that time, it wasn't long until I was met by even more choice.

Their Fall/Winter2010 collection is definitely one of the best ranges of shirts yet. Now at that time, I got the "Zombario" Tee for my Christmas. It quickly became one of my favourite T-shirts (still is) after that I knew I had to grab another one. I went on to grab the Casey Jones inspired "Slashers" Tee (another favourite, but even more so because the guys held it for me until I had the cash **Thanks Again Guys**)




All this led to a point where I got in touch with the guys quite a few times. As I have mentioned with Trevor before, much the same with Derek, these guys are very good, honest people!
To sum up; Their mixture of music, skating and general hatred for religion is amazing. Their T-shirts are (out of this world) amazingly designed and their site is nice and easy to visit... what more do you need?
Their Tumblr is also really good to follow.

Go check these guys out! If you are into all of the above in any way at all, I guarantee you will love it.
