No more reviews, we’re dorking out in a different direction now. - Cody Sanders.

2 years ago we set out to create a video dedicated to Keaton Newsom. The more I talked about it with people the more it became clear, the only name fitting enough for it would have to be “Candy”. Before Keaton took over as team manager for Ground Control he had been working on releasing a wheel company called “Candy”. We couldn’t think of a better way to honor our brother. Due to the cause, everybody wanted to get involved in one way or another. This is the end result: blading straight from the heart. Anthony Medina.

Candy, Full Video - PLAY: Intro | John Sullivan | Anthony Medina | Heath Burley | Ryan Rasmussen | Mick Casals | Brandon Bobadilla | Andrew Broom | Mason Richard | Outro + Bonus: Trailer 1 | Trailer 2 | Youtube Playlist.

On Sunday, March 11th Keaton Newsom’s Mother hosted a celebration of his life at her new event venue in Dallas, Chijmes.

People from all over the world came to celebrate and reminisce a person that was so special to all of us. Thank you so much Andra for allowing us to celebrate our dear friend and thank you to all of Keaton’s family that took the time to come over to us, his friends, and express their appreciation for us and what rollerblading meant to him.

This was a very tough weekend for us all and I hope that this piece can put a smile on everybody’s face as we reflect on our brother. Please donate to the GoFundMe Keaton’s Mother has started if you can. The proceeds go toward building or repairing a skatepark in his name.
