Looks like HSL is keen to get celebrity faces attached to their stuff:

Interesting... Marketing strategy or ditch effort to make the shoe "cool"

Both. duh. Wink
But seriously, I don't even know any of those people. Wait... I know Scott Baio... 'cus I'm old. I'm betting the rest of them are getting a lot of coverage in Teen Beat, or whatever the current teen rag is. Was there a Metro Station member in there somewhere, perhaps?

Anyway, while I couldn't care less about the supposed celebrity there, I did like the fact that they were seeing a bunch of new styles. Has anyone else (ok, other than Seth and Merlyn ;-P) seen those styles? They're certainly not on the Heelys web site. Maybe there's a PR coming up with style pics soon. I'd like to see some better photos of some of those.

I am hoping HSL has an Ace up their sleeve... I am getting really nervous about the next year or so

These may go into the "famous last words hall of fame" but for some reason I am optimistic that HSL will pull through. Purely a feeling.

Then again, in this economic climate, nothing is certain.

Perhaps they're mock ups of how the next shoes might look, like they do with concept cars. . . at least some of them looked a bit strange to be real working heelys, although I suppose you could say that about some of the existing heelys. Smile

What I want to know is, what's this, a new logo?



And who's the heeling-instructor:

I thought it was Mike Buffo, but I didn't want to say in case it wasn't. Smile His hair is shorter than in his Avatar, assuming that's also Mike? Smile
