Chris Cole leaves Zero Skateboards

chris_cole_skate

Following Jamie Thomas’ announcement this week that Zero Skateboards will now be distributed by Dwindle, Chris Cole has resigned from his position at the brand where he was a shareholder since 2011 and pro rider for the last 13 years.

Cole announced he is moving on via his instagram account last night with no clues to where he is heading next:

“I have had so many amazing years on ZERO. I can’t explain to anyone how awesome these years have been. With a heavy heart, it is time for ZERO and I to part ways. My decision has absolutely nothing to do with the partnership with Dwindle. I believe that partnership will do great things. Hold tight to see what the future holds… Where we’re going, we don’t need roads…”

The gossip suggests Primitive will be his next move alongside P-Rod, others are saying Plan B, whilst starting his own company remains an obvious possibility. Who knows, but things are a changing out there.

Central Skatepark on ebay for 99p

central_skatepark_manchester

Wake up to the news that Central Skatepark in Manchester has been auctioned for sale on ebay today with a starting bid of just 99p! This is legit (christ, we hate that word) as this has come to us from the Black Sheep guys direct who unfortunately have to let it go after 8 years of love.

The park comes with a tonne of history and needs a new owner, so if you are loaded and want to own your own park, or if you are up for organising a consortium of friends together to take over the ownership of the park, then get in touch with Black Sheep to discuss the costs of running it and get bidding.


Black Sheep
have announced that a farewell jam has been scheduled for July 5th so if you are local, get down there for what will be a damn good party.
