Last week was the first big event in a new chapter in my life. I recently partnered up with someone I’ve known and respected for the past 20 years, DJ Clark Kent. Together we created a new division: LTD+ Management. Our first client is someone many of you may know, BMX athlete Nigel Sylvester. We kicked off the partnership with a big event at the Hotel on Rivington Penthouse in NYC to celebrate the release of Nigel’s signature G-Shock. We had over 1200 people throughout the night (venue capacity is 250), cops tried to shut us down 3 times but we couldn’t be stopped, needless to say it was a good night.

This is just the beginning, we’ll continue the movement and make sure everyone is on board with #PopAWheelieFresh
