New Action Sports Video Website 'Shred or Die' Officially Launches - www.shredordie.com

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ShredorDie.com, the premier action sports destination has officially launched. Since the site’s soft launch last October, over 1000 videos have been uploaded and traffic has been growing by double digits every month. The website is a collaboration between the creators of funnyordie.com and skateboarding icon Tony Hawk.

“I’m excited to be a part of Shred or Die because I like the idea of creating a site where action sports fans can find content from professional and non-professional athletes, as well as creating their own and sharing it. The action sports community has a unique camaraderie and our site reflects that,” said Hawk.

Ripping its way to becoming the ultimate community for professionals, amateurs and action sports enthusiasts, ShredorDie.com is updated daily and includes videos from all the top action sports athletes, including Shaun White and Ryan Sheckler as well as celebrities like Ed Helms, Christian Slater and Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse. Hawk’s own “Dissent TV” series, where he conducts interviews with athletes, artists and actors he meets during his travels, has become one of the site’s signature favorites.

Upcoming ShredorDie.com videos include a horrific new Big Air Ramp wipeout; motocross long jumper Ryan Capes going 306 ft -- 4 feet shy of long distance jump record he set live on ESPN; and some exclusive outtake footage of skating icon Rodney Mullen.

ShredorDie.com features action sports videos, with an emphasis on skate, snow, surfing, BMX, motocross and action sports culture. Hawk, a founder of the site, provides creative direction to ensure that ShredorDie.com offers visitors the best of professional and non-professional action sports content. Like FunnyorDie.com, the site makes use of a simple and compelling “shred” or “die” voting system that helps ShredorDie.com uncover and highlight the best possible content.
