Website!

The new Reskue site is very near to being done and should be live in a day or two, then you have no excuse to go elsewhere!
Over 1000 products online of all the best companies, and don't forget if we don't have exactly what you want you can always order it!

Alex Moul

Alex Moul was originally from Oxford and used to skate Southampton a bit back in the day, in fact he had a photo in a mag boardsliding a ledge outside Asda, he then went on to be part of the Flip team in the states and is now pro for Santa Cruz, if you have never seen how good he is then witness this part:

From Asda to Santa Cruz!

NASS

The NASS festival seemed to go off pretty well this year, no riots at least! The street course lookedc pretty gnarly but Reskue riders Jed Cullen and Marc Churchill both did pretty well with 8th and 6th place respectively, i heard Marc hurt his ankle in his last run, so get well soon mate!

DGK rudeness.

The latest line of boards from DGK are instore now, kinda, they are in black bags and have parental advisory stickers on, so you can only buy them if you are 18, maybe google it or something if you want to see em!
They are being sold as ltd editions and collectors have been quick to snap up full sets, so if you know anyone that wants a set, we have one!

Bastien Salabanzi

I just thought that some younger chaps might not know who new Jart pro Bastien Salabanzi is either, he used to be on Flip a few years back but had a break from the board for a while but now he is back, here is an old part of his from the Lordz video.

Danny Gonzalez

Danny Gonzalez was pretty big time a few years back, had a pro shoe on Globe but never really found a major board sponsor, but he has recently signed up to the Jart team, all Jart boards are made in Spain and we have them instore for just 34.99, which for a company that has a lot of pros including Danny and Bastien Salabanzi is really good value.
Here a couple of clips of Danny Gonzalez, he has a wierd choice in tricks which makes people love or hate him, all i know is doing a flip melon down Wallenburg is no joke!

Gilbert Crockett

Here is the first of the catch up links, a bit of footage of Gilbert Crockett in HD, it is gonna be so good when whole vids are in HD.

Sorry!

So I know there haven't been any posts for a while but with good reason! I have been really busy trying to get the new site done, and to make it look really great i thought that instead of using stock photos from companies we would have a photoshoot of all the clothing in the shop, this took a while!
I will catch up now and get a bunch of stuff up to look at, and the new site should be up in the next few days too!

Black Box Employee Comp!

If you check out the Sidewalk website the footage from the Winch jam is currently on the front page which is pretty cool, well done to Rob Crawford for that, and the props Curt is collecting for his late back foot flip shuv is pretty rad too.
As well as this there is a new article on the Black Box site, home of Zero, Mystery, Fallen.
Black Box actually employs a whole bunch of skaters so they have an annual comp at their park for them.

Summers looking good!

So this weekend saw both a comp at Hoglands run by K2 and the Winch Jam. Reskue did its bit to support both, but when people found out you had to have helmets and consent forms for Hogs, the Winch jam seemed like a better option.
It was cool to actually have something at Hoglands, and kids were definately stoked on their prizes but older skaters went for the "run by skaters" option and headed down to Winch.
Well done to all the Winch chaps who helped put it on and all the extra bits they made for it, there is an edit up by mr Crawford on Southern Dynamics already, looks like it was an awesome day!
It is not often you have a choice of comps to go to so they are well worth supporting, and bear in mind that there is ANOTHER comp at Hoglands this weekend with an I-Pod for first place!
Anyone would think we have a scene!

Pro Tec Pool Party

A chap from Portsmouth way came in and told us about his mate going to the Pro Tec comp at the Vans park, here is a vid he made, that pool is huge!

We came back from Milton Keynes yesterday with a tiny bit of crap footage so i'll maybe have a little edit up tonight, don't expect much tho! If you haven't been there its well worth going if you are a street skater.

New Girl pros!

No big surprises here, Mike Mo Capaldi, Alex Olson and Sean Malto are now all pro for Girl, Mike Mo and Alex Olsons parts in Fully Flared were amazing and this is definately well deserved.
You may have noticed we haven't had much Girl/Chocolate/Lakai stuff in a while, but we should have a bunch soon, also including Fourstar clothing too!
Check out their ridiculous ads HERE

Mannytastic!

Here is a little vid of chaps from the Kayo Corp, always good to see Rob Welsh footage.

We have over 90 decks in stock at the moment and a hell of a lot of trucks and wheels, so if you are finishing your exams then set your self up for the summer! For those of you who are still going, good luck!
