Dwindle

You may have noticed that while we have most of the good skate companies, a few weren't happy to let us have stuff from them when other shops in town sold them.
But a few things have changed recently and we are happy to say that we have stuff from Almost, Blind, Darkstar, Tensor and perhaps most requested Enjoi coming in next week, and it will actually be the stuff you might want too! Like the brand new Wieger pro model from Enjoi and new Lewis Marnell deck.
Anyway here is a little clip of daewon to get you in the mood for some Dwindle action.

And here is a part from Wieger you may not have seen.

And his welcome video.

Eastleigh again




So a couple of us went down to Eastleigh at six this morning to have it to ourselves, its really good, I can see people travelling to skate it, here are a couple of pics and i'll have a little video edit up tonight so you can see what its like.

Locals

It has been rad to actually put some local skaters on the blog recently, so i'm gonna carry on with this clip of local Dan Lilley gettin techy round Oxford way, its always worth a look on www.southerndynamics.co.uk for some local skaters

Street burners

Just been looking on the Deluxe site and they have THIS clip, pretty rad stuff, we should have both those wheels and the new Park burners, which are slightly softer and would be rad for the new Eastleigh bowl, in very soon.

Oh and not to big myself up too much but in an old post I was saying you should look out for Willows part in the new Flip vid, well apparently he has backside bigspinned Wallenburg! Also David Gonzalez is now officially pro so look out for a board from him soon.

Eastleigh Bowl!

Eastliegh Bowl is done and earlier than expected! People that have had a go say its rad so finally there is something good to skate in Southampton! Its a shame that it accompanies possibly the worst street course in the area.


Hopefully we'll have an edit up soon of some skating in there.

Fully Flared?

Rather bizzarely Lakai have the whole of their recent Fully Flared dvd on the site ready to watch?!
Anyway if they are happy to do that then i am only too happy to share my favourite section from it, Lucas Puig and friends.

No tricks?


So i had some people ask me today where my footage was from the Didcot edit, i was there for 10mins and this happened... then ten minutes later trying to skate with a hipper i snapped my board.

Long time Soton skater Tim Bartelot came in today and showed me this clip of him and Phil Parker skating a secret mini nr Plymouth, pretty rad stuff.

Didcot lens test

I actually took a day off from the shop today and tested out a new lens I bought at Didcot, we basically filmed whatever just to see what the lens was like so you now get the chance to see the Reyno in action.

Justin Cefai

The Insight clothing range is proving really popular at the moment, so i thought i'd show you Justin Cefai who is on an Insight flow, some pretty rad stuff.

All Girl Summer Fun Band

Hello Charlie here, just proving to Paggers that it really isnt that hard to do a blog. It took him quite a while to write his, bless. Here is a little song for you about the lovely and talented Jason Lee by All Girl Summer Fun Band. They may not know much about skateboarding (190 degrees?!) but they sure love Mr Lee.
Hi it's Joe (work experience), Andy asked me to do the blog today. So I thought I'd post a relatively new video of Nick Mclouth's "SkateboardMag Minute"

Black Label

I think i may have posted this already but i'm looking forward to it, Jason Adams is one of my favourite skaters and his part in Label Kills was awesome.

Grape Ice Cream

The world aint based on the menus of what people got already made man, its about what you gonna do.
Grape Ice Cream.

Stevie Williams

Had a ridiculously bad skate at Crawley yesterday, but work experience kid Paggers was ripping and the park is rad so i guess it balances out, this has cheered me up tho, just found this old part on Youtube, when this part came out in the Transworld vid "The Reason" it was so progressive I watched it every day for a while, a ridiculous amount of pop, Stevie Williams is now heading up the DGK team, and we have a few DGK decks at the new price of 51.99.

5Boro

5Boro are awesome, a true skater run company that has never changed its image or bought into fads, they just make really good skateboards and have a sick underground team. Here is an interview with 5Boro owner Steve Rodriguez.
The new 5Boro video should be rad but here is a look at future 5Boro pro Danny Falla from their last video.

Here is a vid of Jimmy Mcdonald too.

And another one...

Mike Mo vs Stefan Janoski

SLAPPIES!!!

Quim Cardona is rad!

Know The Ledge vol 2

This vid is sick too, liking the Boston spots and there are a lot of lesser known skaters on it too.

Flip

Flip have always been right on the money with picking up amazing skaters just before they blow up, but they have had a tough time of it lately, Shane Cross the Australian wonder kid unfortunately died in an motorcycle accident which Ali Boulala has now gone to jail for, and it has recently been announced that Arto Saari has left to join Alien Workshop.

However anyone who doesn't think the new Flip video is going to be anything short of amazing is underestimating one of the best teams out there, Flip have had some stick recently for having a "kiddy" team with a lot of very young team riders, but they know exactly what they are doing, and their ams which you may have seen very little of are seriously underated, check out Willow, there are too many amazing tricks in this part to talk about, but Joe Paget will love the 360 shove!

Also check out this vid of Tom Penny and David Gonzalez in Argentina, if only for the completely unexpected trick after Pennys mayday.

Stupidity!

For anyone who doesn't know the story: Mike Mo started a world record for 360 flips in one minute, then Englands own Jak Pietryga beat it, then some german kid beat it, so now Mike Mo has done this.
Just plain stupid consistency, I would be stoked on one smooth one! Mike Mo will win that game of skate this year.

Happy Birthday Nevs

Its shop lurker Alex Nevills big 18th birthday today, hope he doesn't think clubs are all like THIS!
Happy Birthday Nevs!

Jamie Tancowny

Apparently this kid has been killing it lately, his new part on the coming soon Zero video should be a banger! Speedy five-o's on rails look rad.

Daewon

Don't really know why i'm posting this, we don't stock Almost stuff, they won't let us with Route One there, but there is no denying Daewons skills! we do have some pretty sweet Matix clothing coming soon tho! And new DVS too.

Slacking!

So there hasn't been a post in a while when there is meant to be every day, but that is because we have had to do the yearly stocktake! Counting thousands of products isn't much fun, but we have 3001 stickers if you wanted to know!
Seeing as we have missed a few days here are three different vids from the Zero/Mystery tour
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
