Welcome to ELYTS Podcast + First Official ELYTS Podcast

Let me start off first by sharing my thoughts about ELYTS. To be honest, I don't think anyone understands the magnitude of what ELYTS is all about. The people involved at ELYTS, and mainly Zig Short himself are some of the most driven individuals I've ever known. This isn't just "talk", it's the exact opposite, it's all action. There is very little discussion or rumors involved when it comes to ELYTS, and odds are if you heard about it, it's already happened.

I feel like this is one of the main things are sport is missing. We're a real sport right? We take our sport seriously, correct? So why do we have to go to another sport to get something as important as shoes? ELYTS is what a lot of people think are going to be the answer and solution to that. With people like Zig running it, I see nothing but great things in the near future.

Check out the below video where Zig gives you guys a little more information on ELYTS, and what they'll be up to in the next couple of monhts.





Below is the first of a never ending series of Podcasts that will feature ELYTS Pro riders and friends. In this video you'll see ELYTS riders Zig Short, and Jon Reyes + So Cal local, Vincent Kudrna. It was filmed and edited by one of the most talented filmers and editors I know, Phillip Long. Check it out.

  4. I'm actually really pumped for these shoes. I'm tired of supporting skateboarding companies by buying their shoes when all i get from skateboarders is disrespect. ~Paul Carlson

  8. It's going to be LEGIT. As Zig said in the video, skate shoes are made for wooden decks and are built for wear on a SKATEBOARD. These shoes will be designed to wear in those spots that wear for US scoooter riders, not skateboarders and BMXers. Big things are to come, TRUST THIS!
