REBEL8 X SLB = EPIC

By Jarod DeAnda, March 29, 2011

The bay area has produced so much goodness over the years, the Bill Walsh Niners (best team ever even though I’m a Chargers fan), Will Clark (his swing and prowess on 1st base ripped), Matt Williams well lets just say The World Champion SF Giants, Stanford (Always wanted to go there), FATLACE (duh) , Myself (I was born there) and REBEL8

Well mix some Bay Area goodness from REBEL8 with a renaissance man like Sal Barbier aka SLB and you get a little capsule collection of solidness!
I admire both companies for sure and I’m stoked to see these products produced
REBEL8 X SLB CLICK HERE
REBEL8 SLB COLLAB

The Crucified tee is probably one of my favorite graphics ever, might become a tattoo if Mike Giant will do it…

Smoke & Mirrors

By Jarod DeAnda, October 4, 2010

All I can say is be careful what you wish for sometimes it comes true…
We present to you SMOKE & MIRRORS

CLICK HERE TO WATCH SMOKE & MIRRORS OR SEE BELOW

Smoke & Mirrors Theatrical Trailer from Joshua Herron on Vimeo.

Jarod DeAnda, the voice of Formula Drift has always had a dream of being a professional drifter and after a freak occurrence, he switches lives with 2009 Formula Drift champion Chris Forsberg.

Hit with this “accident” Chris then realizes the final round of the 2010 FD season is just two months away, and he has no choice but to teach Jarod how to drift.

Chris and Jarod switch bodies entirely, but the two of them can see each other for who they really are. However, the rest of the world sees them as their “host” bodies.
