<B>PUMA to outfit the BAHNE-CADILLAC RACING TEAM</B>

PUMA has agreed to outfit the BAHNE-CADILLAC Racing Team in the latest PUMA footwear and apparel. PUMA will supply the team with Speed Cats from their Formula 1 automobile racing shoes collection and the Classic PUMA Suedes from their skateboarding shoe line.

On the clothing side of things look for the BAHNE-CADILLAC Team to be sporting some groovy pre-race warm-ups as well as new racing jerseys.

The BAHNE-CADILLAC RACING TEAM consists of Josh and Ricky Byrd, Brian Parsons, Scott Johnston and Jack Smith.

On a side note the marketing crew at PUMA was seen rolling through the hallways yesterday at their corporate headquarters in Boston on their new 60" BAHNE custom longboard. Reports indicate that envy was rampant among the other PUMA departments.

Bahne Skateboards would like to officially welcome Adrian Pina to the Bahne Racing Team. Adrian is a Los Osos native who made his slalom racing debut at last year's World's. He has since raced at JPL, WLAC, Bicknell and Cambria. He will be representing Bahne at Breckenridge, La Costa and the Worlds, and hopefully Hood River.

Adrian, who is a very talented graphic artist, works with me at VAS Entertainment. It's great to have someone so close, who is so eager to learn about slalom and to also improve as a racer.

As Satchel paige once said, "Don't look back, someone (Adrian) may be gaining on you".
