Lou Calderon Uba: Ambassador!

Posted by: Alex | Wednesday, October 22, 2008

Yesterday, etnies BMX rider Lou Calderon had lunch with Costa Rica's President Dr. Oscar Arias.

Lou was invited to the luncheon because of his involvement with the nonprofit organization "Un Mundo Sin Guerras" (World without Wars) and, also to discuss such initiatives as government investment in the building of public Skate/BMX parks and in the sponsorship of action sports athletes!

A few photos...

of Lou (rocking etnies) with President Arias and his with brother Rodrigo Arias (Minister of Presidency) during yesterday's lunch at Casa Presidencial
(Costa Rica's White House) in Zapote.

Thanks Lou for all the support and for being part of the ST family.

Sally Fitzgibbons won the Open Women's World Title at the ISA World Surfing Games Costa de Caparica, Portugal yesterday, capping off a wonderful year of results. She made the final, winning all her heats along the way. Sally started the final slowly, patiently waiting 12 minutes for the right wave, scoring an 8.9 and then following it up with an 8.2 point ride shortly after. Sal carried this lead to the finish with Marie Dejean (France) in 2nd, Camila Cassia (Brazil) 3rd and Lauren Sweeney (USA) 4th.

Congratulations, Sally!
