Rob Dyrdek’s “Street Dreams” World Premier

We’ve seen the official trailer and movie poster of Rob Dyrdek’s upcoming skateboarding flick Street Dreams, now we have word that the movie was well-received as it premiered this past Saturday at the Newport Beach Film Festival.
It was quite a scene, with a bunch of the cast and crew on hand, including Ryan Sheckler (above), Rob Dyrdek, Paul Rodriguez Jr., C.C. Sheffield and director Chris Zamoscianyk. Crowds of skateboarding fans, followers of the MTV reality show, “Life of Ryan”, and picture-happy onlookers showed up. The screening was a sellout.
Dyrdek spent $2 million of his own money to finance the film. It’s already been picked up for distribution, and will see a theatrical release on June 12.
View more photos from the premier below, including Sheckler’s fat diamond pinky ring and other pricey jewels!

Rogue Status takes on Motorsports

It was over two years ago that Rogue Status met with the ID Agency to discuss motorsports. The leading street fashion brand tasked ID with establishing a Rogue Status motorsports program. ID accomplished this and more by partnering Rogue Status with the SCION drift team for 2008 and entering Rogue Status in the 2008 GUMBALL 3000 Rally which they won the coveted “Spirit of Gumball” award. In 2009, the campaign has grown and Rogue Status now sponsors both of the SCION drift teams, is defending their award on the 2009 GUMBALL 3000 rally and they will launch their own DTA drift team with title sponsor NOS Energy Drink. In the process Rogue Status has released limited edition apparel with SCION, GUMBALL 3000 and more announcements will be coming soon. Find out more at www.roguestatus.com
