RICK’S INK

we just found this clip of k1x warrior rick apodaca getting tatted up in bella italia. here’s what rick had to say about the situation seen in the clip:

“that’s my ‘new york big city of dreams’ tattoo, my man adrian “the sardinian” is the artist. he tatted up the botttom of my left sleeve from my elbow to the wrist and he fixed my new york theme. he brought out the buildings more, added the eye, threw in the american eagle on top, put in the statue of liberty hand with the torch and added his script - the man is great!!!
that was in italy at my house (2007). he’s gonna finish my right arm soon before i go back to ny this summer…you see in the video i thought it was a picture camera cause i had the peace sign up for mad long then i saw this and realised it was a video.”

HOOPS IN THE SUN & K1X

legendary nyc streetball tournament “hoops in the sun” (orchard beach, bx) and k1x gotta be the nastiest one-two punch in the big apple since ewing & starks! that’s why the bronx riviera roundball classic and your favorite got-next basketball brand have decided to join forces, in leaving a lasting impression on the mekka of streetball this summer!

“i feel this will become a great relationship between both brands,” says CEO Randy Cruz. “Both Hoops in the Sun and K1X are very well established companies and in making a decision on our next apparel company, it wasn’t easy but we felt this was the direction we wanted to go in. K1X was looking to be part of a basketball program that demonstrated professionalism and a prestigious track record, where their brand and their products can grow and expand throughout New York City and the Tri-State area and as always, we were looking to do something different. They showed great interest in trying to get us to acquire them for the 2008 season and I think that’s what made the difference in making a decision. I believe this can be a wonderful partnership not only for 2008 but for many years to come. I’m excited, I know K1X is excited as well, and we’re all looking forward to a new found relationship.”

k1x has successful distribution in over 30 countries world wide, and is set for initial u.s. launch at 250 foot locker doors, as well as premium partners like dr. jay’s this summer (later this may). with park baller icons like homicide, big game reid, primal fear, rick apodaca and cory underwood already holding it down in nyc, we are very proud to team up with a most legit institution like hoops in the sun! after all, it is boundless respect for competition, athletic skill and streetball culture, that is top priority for us both: play hard, don’t embarrass our products!

K1X PLAYER OF THE WEEK: KAREEM “BIG GAME” REID

this weekend kareem reid’s french squad bourg en bresse had a big overtime win vs. evreux. “big game” (who is averaging 18 points over the last five games) scored a team-high 18 points and nailed 57% of his field goal attempts from inside the arc.
the bourg ballers have now won 6 out of their last 7 games! they are ranked first but the second and third seeded teams are only one and two games back respectively. the playoffs are 3 gamedays away and it looks like the best kept secret is ready for some more big games.
