SKATEBOARDING IS DANGEROUS, AND IN ORDER TO PROGRESS YOUR SKILLS YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE SOME SLAMS ALONG THE WAY. LIL WAYNE IS NO STRANGER TO THIS AS YOU MAY REMEMBER HE HAD TO GET 9 STICHES ABOVE HIS EYE LAST AUGUST, AND MOST RECENTLY HE BROKE HIS COLLARBONE AFTER A SLAM. MTV CAUGHT UP WITH WEEZY TO GET THE DETAILS ON HIS LATEST SKATEBOARDING INJURY. NOT ONLY DOES HE LAUGH IT OFF, BUT HE CALLS IT “FUN.” NOW THAT’S A REAL SKATER! NO PAIN, NO GAIN.

WE SHOWED YOU THE SUPRA TEAM SHUTTING DOWN DA PLAYGROUND, AND NOW IT’S WEEZY’S TURN.

HIS EXCITEMENT AFTER LANDING THAT TRICK IS WHAT EVERY SKATER STRIVES FOR, AND EVEN MORE PROOF THAT THIS IS NOT A FAZE, BUT A TRUE PASSION FOR SKATEBOARDING.

We hinted at it awhile back that SUPRA and Lil Wayne had something big in the works, and now it’s official. Here’s SUPRA’s official press release announcing their exclusive partnership with Lil Wayne.

SUPRA is proud to announce an exclusive partnership with Lil Wayne. A full collection of new footwear designs, inspired and overseen by Lil Wayne, will be manufactured and distributed by SUPRA. There has been a longstanding respect between both parties: the SUPRA team cites Lil Wayne’s music as a source of inspiration, and Lil Wayne has embraced SUPRA and worn the Skytop since it was first introduced to the market in 2007. The collection of new models will launch in early 2013 at SUPRA retailers worldwide, and suprafootwear.com.
