LRG may refer to:
The Berrics is a privately owned, indoor skatepark owned by professional skateboarders Steve Berra and Eric Koston. It is also a website providing content filmed in the skatepark, as well other skateboard-related media. The facility's name is a portmanteau of the owners' names (the "Ber" of Berra's surname and the "ric" of Koston's first name).
In an interview with Pop magazine, Berra revealed that prior to the launch of The Berrics, he had been offered a million-dollar deal to direct a film based on a screenplay that he had written. Due to filming commitments for his skateboard deck sponsor, Alien Workshop, Berra declined the offer and later commenced work on The Berrics concept following a period of reflection:
All I wanted to do is I knew we have this hook because there were a lot of kids that always would ask Eric and I about our building. “Someday I’ll come to your skate park,” everywhere, all over the world.
That was minimal exposure of it. I realized we were on to something, like a Studio 54, and I was sitting there one day as I was skating and I think it was Andrew Reynolds that I’d seen do a heel flip backside tailslide on the ledge. It was so perfect and awesome. I never left Nebraska mentally to a degree, like I’m still a fan of anyone who skates incredible, ends up just skating.
So if a kid from Nebraska could see how being on this side of the baker’s window, if he could see what goes on here and how we make the bread, and what temperature we cook the bread at, they would be psyched. I just started coming up with ideas of what we could do.Jonas Bevacqua (October 23, 1977 – May 31, 2011) was an American clothing designer and entrepreneur.
Jonas Gregory Bevacqua was born October 23, 1977, and was adopted into a family with six other adopted children of different races and ethnicities. He is of Vietnamese descent according to the Orange County Register reported in 2009.
In 1999 he co-founded Lifted Research Group (LRG) with Robert Wright.
After Bevacqua dropped out of college and moved back home with his parents, he met fellow LRG founder Robert Wright when they were both working as DJs in Southern California clubs. Heavily influenced by Southern California's skateboard, surfing, and hip hop culture; Bevacqua and Wright started designing and making clothes that reflected their interests but were not available at the time.
By 2007 Entrepreneur placed LRG at No. 5 on its "Hot 500" list of fastest-growing companies, with 2006 sales coming in at a whopping $150 million.
Jonas Bevacqua was found dead at his Laguna Beach home on May 31, 2011. He was 33 years old. In November 2011 Orange County Coroner's Office determined that Jonas Bevacqua died of natural causes.
Last April I was lucky enough to hop on an LRG trip to Shanghai for one of the final filming missions for "1947." It was by far one of the most memorable trips I've ever been on. All those guys have so much fun together and I've never seen such an insane amount of skating go down in twelve days. And not to mention Trent's triple-kink back tail on the last day of the trip! Thanks to Kyle Camarillo and Tyrone Romero for making it happen and trusting me to film. And Tom Asta, Tommy Sandoval, Miles Silvas, Carlos Ribeiro, Felipe Gustavo, Jack Curtin, and Trent McClung for killing it so hard!

The best things in life are free to those who steal them. High End Lowlifes enjoy the finer things in life because they've faced endless hurdles. Their individuality comes from a desire to leave their mark despite consequences. An elevated lifestyle starts small and quickly grows for those willing to endure the elements.
Naršiau per kompa ir radau štai toki lobi :o
A LRG produziu um vídeo com o Rodrigo Petersen e Pedro Biagio em Los Angeles o “LRG LOVE CITIES-LA “ que faz parte de uma série de vídeos onde algumas cidades são focadas, mostrando suas peculiaridades. O primeiro da serie foi com o skatista Lucas Rabelo que teve como foco a cidade de São Paulo. Los Angeles é o sonho da maioria dos skatistas devido aos seus famosos “spots”: Santa Monica, Radio Korea e Hollywood são nomes conhecidos por skatistas ao redor do mundo.
You keep one talking bout these winter blues
All across the lowlands
People getting used to the walking in the daytime
While the little men go choose
Arrested fathers with their Monday heads
Get suspicious of the women who know more in bed
And the whole thing shows what the space race failed to prove
After the light show and the ball of flames
All the elephants go back to their poker games
And the money takes a one-way trip on a southbound train
Amazing brandy and the Ace of Spades
Talk to Dylan with the only who didn't get laid
And everyone agreed on the meaning behind the news
We're being used
I've never been here but the brochures' nice
Says the staff here is friendly but the management lies
And the ceiling comes free if we just get online and dice
Too many owners and not enough teams
Too many ideas and not enough wet wet wet dreams
So pu that wallet away cause i can't pay what's due
And nor can you
We're being used
I'd bow my head if the king walked by
But he'd better stay focued on the glint oin my eye
For his right hand man may taste a bullet and die
If immagration stops us getting through
Thenj we'll hit 'em with the joke bout the 2ft shoe
And if that doesn't work then we'll just hi 'em with the truth
Were bieng used
Heaven's got a porblem with the casting couch
Cause if God does the interview, You'd better watch out
It's a rumour right now
But Jesus won't you tell us the truth
