sPACYcLOUd Landed at The Fitter in Boulder, Colorado!

sPACYcLOUd is proud to be part of one of the longest-operating headshops in the United States which celebrated its fortieth year in operation in 2013.

Opened in the spring of 1973, 2016 marks the year this Boulder headshop turns 43.

Formerly know as "The Pipefitter," this one-time head shop has leapt headlong into the 21st century. That's right, it's not just hippie outfits and '60s and '70s kitsch anymore.  

The Fitter now stocks the latest in surf 'n' skate wear and other boutique fashions. It has also made a name for itself as the region's foremost purveyor of flip flops. However, its psychedelic past has yet to completely fade away; it is consistently named "Best Pipe Shop" in Boulder Weekly's annual "Best of Boulder" issue.

 Thank you to The Fitter for taking sPACYcLOUd into the family. We are stoked to be part of such an awesome store! 

From DC with LOVE. ~sPACYcLOUd

Team Rider of the Week: BBoy Atomic Goofball!

Danny "Atomic Goofball" Nguyen is a Vietnamese-American break-dancer from Maryland. 

Where to even start? Bboy Atomic Goofball is incredible. 

His entire life he has loved and pursued art, especially in conjunction with helping people. Atomic Goofball is here to inspire and uplift free spirits like himself by sharing his art with the world. 

Danny did not have a perfect life as a kid, but he had the perfect head on his shoulders to get him where he wanted to go. His family didn't have much money and he didn't have many friends. He felt outcasted by his peers, so he turned to himself for support. 

Danny, being Danny, was able to motivate himself by delving into his own imagination rather than outsourcing to those that outcasted him for a good time. He made his own toys and went on his own adventures and didn't think a thing of it. 

  Later, Danny struggled after being diagnosed with a chest deformity. It struck his confidence for sure, and the others already against him took notice. Bullies used his condition as a weapon against Danny to make him feel worse. "As I grew, so did my challenges. The bullies started to hit harder, and things started to hurt more. As much as I liked to smile, I found it hard to do so."  Though Danny was presented with this negativity from all sides, he never gave up. He pulled through by continuing to motivate himself with his hobbies and talents.

"I promised myself, I will no longer live my life to please others, That I will make a difference, and be the hero I need...and if there was anyone out there who needed help like I did, I would be that help." 

  Danny really lived though his dancing, and also drawing. His drawings started to be auctioned off to help those in need. Danny would donate his art to be used to help those in less-fortunate countries.  

Little by little, Danny's childhood dreams started coming together. Everything he always promised himself was finally happening. He started to get recognized. He was eventually on TV and in movies, meeting celebrities, designing shoes, building award-winning cars, competing and travelling the world dancing, and building a clientele.

 In recent times, Danny has accomplished countless achievements. In 2015 he took the titled at Mr. Vietfest in Virginia. Danny was thrilled to be able to encourage other young Vietnamese- American men to strive for excellence and follow their dreams. Danny recently designed a pair of shoes for NFL player Terrel Suggs, Suggs sported the shoes the very next day in his team's first game, and received the game ball. 

We are proud of Danny and everything he has overcome and accomplished, and we are very grateful to have him on our team. 

If you want to see Atomic Goofball in action, come to Lionz Of Zion 20th Anniversary on Sept. 24, 2016 in Washington, DC. Click here for additional information.
