Insight

Jose Rojo and Daniel Shimizu wear insight!

Insight quietly slid into the U.S. skate scene with the acquisition of southern Cali all terrain ripper Chad TimTim. Thankfully, Chad turned up the volume with two editorial interviews and an amazing video part in Transworld’s latest film, “ A Time To Shine.” Insight Brand awareness has grown tremendously since Chad joined the family and will no doubt continue to grow with our latest addition of San jose shred head, Jose Rojo, and Los Angeles based style cat, Daniel Shimizu.
Both Daniel and Jose bring an unparalleled element of style and talent to our team. These relationships are built on the belief in the individuality of each of these skaters and on the importance of their place in this industry. Honest street skaters doing their thing and doing it well. Insight is a brand based on and around all things creative and timelessly entertaining. Following a brief conversation with Daniel and Jose about this new endeavor, it was obvious that they are a perfect fit.
This was all that I needed to hear as confirmation.
“Hey Jose, how do you feel about being on Insight?”
In a mildly panicked and defensive tone, he says, “What do you mean? I feel great! Why?” Perfect Jose, CLICK…
I could not reach Daniel directly, so I left him this message, “Daniel, do you think you can make it out for a sample sale and a quarter pipe session?”
His response came In the form of an absolutely dry and insensitive e-mail from another plane of existence that read…“I’m totally there man.”
This is the kind of commitment to excellence that we at insight take pride in. As the family continues to grow, and the laughs within become louder and louder, we’ll keep supporting the kind of people that don’t fall into any particular category. We at Insight are more than happy to have Daniel and Jose rocking our gear as they skate their way into the pages of skateboarding history…
