– April 3, 2013Posted in: Action Sports, Art, Exclusive, HAUNT Crew, James Haunt, Murals, News, Red Bull, Rhome, Runke, Ryan Sheckler, Style Gangster, The Bad Character

James Haunt and the crew headed out to Ryan Sheckler’s private training facility down in south OC last week to knock out another huge mural. We had a blast holding down the brand new skatepark and adding a little color and James Haunt flavor to the space. Overall we are super stoked on the outcome of the piece and look forward to working with everyone involved on more projects in the future.

We wanted to send a huge shout and thank you to Ryan Sheckler and his crew, Mr. Ryan Runke the whole Red Bull team for gettin us dialed in on this project, Gretchen Sheckler and everyone with The Sheckler Foundation, and of course to Rhomer and The Bad Character for always being G’s. …Check out the photos below!

Jamie O’Brien – Red Bull “Wedge Sessions”

– September 7, 2012Posted in: 2012, Action Sports, California, Insane, James Haunt, Jamie O'Brien, Newport Beach, News, Red Bull, Red Bull USA, Surfing, videos, Wedge Sessions

Surfing legend and all around adventure seeker Jamie O’ Brien recently teamed up with Red Bull to shred “The Wedge” down in Newport Beach, CA. The Wedge is definitely one of California most gnarly waves to ride considering one side lines up with a huge break water wall and the heavy barrel of the wave crashes in about two feet of water. Needless to say, this wave takes some balls to ride and Jamie pulls out all the stops! …make sure to check out the video below.

We wanted to send a big shout out to Jamie and his crew for always pushing the boundaries of whatever it is they may be getting into and to the good people over at Red Bull for bringing together next level events like this for everyone to enjoy. Nice work!

Also, if you haven’t checked out Jamie’s rad web series “Who is JOB 2.0″ which drops new episodes every Friday, we highly suggest you head over to the Red Bull Youtube page and check it out!

Surfing The Wedge with Jamie O’Brien – Red Bull Wedge Sessions in Newport Beach

In this episode of “Who is JOB 2.0″ Jamie stops by the US Open of Surfing 2012 and does an autograph signing right in front of the James Haunt pieces outside of the Red Bull Hub, check it out!

You can also find the rest of the rad adventures of Jamie and his crew on their web series “Who is JOB 2.0″ HERE

Jamie O’Brien and the crew stopped by to show James Haunt a little love at Coachella.
