Brandon Thomas
Brandon Thomas, a.k.a. DJ Droptop, has a new deck on the market and he’s pumped. The learning curve BT enjoyed in 2009 on his new duel level Vinyl skate was incredible and quite enjoyable to watch in Rewritten. As he progressed his skills on the skate, he also dove into cinematography and his masterpieces can be seen on many sites including Hyperlite.com. Stay tuned as we honestly has no idea what he’s got up his sleeve for 2010.
