                <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.zumiezcouchtour.com/sites/zumiezcouchtour/images/user/Blog-Images/News_Partners-Preview-2.jpg" width="574" height="382" alt="Tour Partners | Zumiez Couch Tour" title="Tour Partners | Zumiez Couch Tour" style="float: right; padding-left: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px;" />Zumiez Couch Tour is more than just skateboarding and live music. It&rsquo;s a 6-hour festival of fun, thanks to the help of great brands like Neff, Oakley and Skullcandy, and the media support of Transworld Skateboarding and Ustream.</p>
<p>Neff Watches will be on hand for the first time this year at Zumiez Couch Tour. Neff will bring their signature style to the festival, offering a tent where you can interact with the brand and check out their latest wares.</p>
<p>Zumiez Couch Tour rolls through some of the hottest parts of the country in the middle of June, so it only makes sense to have Oakley as an official eyewear partner. Oakley joins the tour for the first time in 2012, but they&rsquo;ve been a fixture in all of action sports since 1975.</p>
<p>Skullcandy will provide sound for the Zumiez Couch Tour for the 4th straight year. But in 2012 they&rsquo;ll be casting the tent aside and rolling out a custom trailer with all the trimmings. You&rsquo;ve got to see this thing to believe it.</p>
<p>Transworld Skateboarding has been a part of the tour since the beginning. They&rsquo;ve spent 10 years on the road with the Zumiez Couch Tour covering the event in print and on the web, filming and getting the word out. Look for recap videos of every stop to hit the news feed at the newly redesigned Skateboarding.com.</p>
<p>The Zumiez Couch Tour webcast is a great way to catch the action when the tour isn&rsquo;t in your city yet, or has already rolled through. The webcast for all 12 stops will once again be offered live through Ustream. Catch it at <a href="http://ustream.com" target="_blank">ustream.com</a>, <a target="_blank">zumiezcouchtour.com</a>, <a href="http://zumiez.com" target="_blank">Zumiez.com</a>, <a href="http://zumiezbestfootforward.com" target="_blank">zumiezbestfootforward.com</a>, and at fine skate brand websites everywhere.</p>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.zumiezcouchtour.com/sites/zumiezcouchtour/images/user/Blog-Images/News_Teams-Preview-1.jpg" width="574" height="382" alt="Pro Skate Team Demos | Zumiez Couch Tour" title="Pro Skate Team Demos | Zumiez Couch Tour" style="float: right; padding-left: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px;" />The best teams in skateboarding are coming to you this summer on the Zumiez Couch Tour 2012.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Plan B will kick off the tour in the Northwest, hitting both Seattle and Portland. This is their second Zumiez Couch Tour in a row after closing out the tour last year in Minneapolis with an epic demo from the whole team and surprise guests from Element!&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Almost Skate team is coming back for the third year in a row, their second Zumiez Couch Tour stop in California. You can look forward to the legendary Rodney Mullen making an appearance.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Enjoi has been on tour with us each of the last five years, and fans in Salt Lake City can count on a demo like no other with arguably the best 80's movie soundtrack playlist they'll ever hear.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Denver will be seeing the Toy Machine team this summer and one of the most original teams in all of skateboarding. Ed Templeton, Billy Marks, Leo Romero and the whole Toy Machine team bring a style completely their own whenever they skate.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This past winter Zero &amp; DGK spent a month in a van together touring the U.S. and this Summer they'll be hitting up Texas with us! Zero will skate the first Zumiez Couch Tour stop ever in San Antonio and DGK will follow at our fifth straight year in Houston.</p>
<p>This is the first time we've ever had the Girl Skateboard team at the Zumiez Couch Tour and we're so excited to see what they bring. Veterans like Eric Koston, Mike Carroll and up and comers like Mike Mo Capaldi and 2011 Street League Skateboarding Champion Sean Malto make our first stop in Baltimore-- one of the highlights of the whole tour.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Flip skateboard team returns to Zumiez Couch Tour for the first time since 2008. With a stable of big-time names like Geoff Rowley and younger rippers like David Gonzalez, the Flip demo in Philadelphia will be huge!&nbsp;</p>
<p>Volcom has always rolled deep on the Zumiez Couch Tour, and will bring one of the deepest teams of the whole tour to West Nyack, NY.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Chicago draws big crowds to the Zumiez Couch Tour every year. In 2012 The Real Skateboard team drops in for their first Zumiez Couch Tour appearance ever, coming off winning Team of the Year at the Transworld Skateboard Awards and "Roll Forever" video.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This is our third year in a row with the Supra/KR3W team on tour but the first time they've ever closed out the tour at the big finale. Chad Muska, Erik Ellington, Terry Kennedy, Lizard King, and more. Don't miss the finals.&nbsp;</p>
<p>All 12 stops of the Zumiez Couch Tour come to you for free, either in person or by webcast on zumiezcouchtour.com.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>
