The launch party for 201 Mulberry went off Saturday night without a hitch. The private gathering was small and intimate, celebrating a unique skate shop in the heart of Manhattan, only open for a limited time. Guests included close friends and family of the players involved with 201 Mulberry – from Billy Rohan’s friends and affiliates of Run My Game Productions, to the Autumn crew, to the local skaters friendly with Quiksilver team-riders Jake Johnson, Tim O’Connor, Alex Olson, Reese Forbes and David Clark. Everyone had something different to say, but one common sentiment was that “it is too bad this shop is only open for eight days!”
