Road Trippin’ with Sam Pulley
Pulley tail grabs for Vincent F Mos’ lens.
Heading out on a skate trip into new terrain is usually the most exciting part of the year but planning ahead can be vital to make sure that your journey is hassle free and full of fun. With the winter climate closing in this month, many sponsored skaters will be hitting the road to pick up footage from warmer countries, so before the rush we caught up with a few UK heads to give you an insight into past experiences and a few tips to assist you with your own journey.
Kill City and Carve Wicked general Sam Pulley is celebrating his Birthday today so raise a glass to his dedication to the UK scene and take in his recommendations on products to stowaway, survival tips, passing time in between sessions and tales from previous missions.
ESSENTIAL PRODUCT:
“Bit of a gay obvious one but always take a skate tool on trips…or at least make sure someone else has one. When there’s a van full of goons with no tool, you can end up not skating for a day, or having to skate a different board that is the rankest.. 2nd choice has to be CRV-WKD Dog-tags.. Wearing those reminds me to keep my faith in the carve and not to let the brothers down.”
TRAVEL TIP:
“TRAVEL LIGHT! If you’re thinking of taking a nature shit (the best kind of shit), look for an old car tyre or two to sit on. Their soft rubbery exterior cushion the hoop like nothing else. And as for the paperwork, go for something natural like a sycamore leaf. They’re a good size. Swabbing your doughnut with things like newspaper can leave poor headlines on your butt-hole.”
CULTURE:
“A good YouTube session always goes down tidy. If everyone has a share of funny things to watch and quote, serious convo gets left out and the van has a real nice time.”
TRAVEL TALE:
“The funniest situation I can think of on the road has to be when we were skating the old abandoned Uni in Newport (Over the double kink rail into the big horrible bank). We ended up dicking about there a bit after we were done and a few of us ended up lobbing bins etc through windows of the Uni and it was really noisy. The fuzz ended up showing up so naturally we all split like bell ends.
Everyone went off in separate groups of 3 or so, I ended up with TM and photographer of the trip (no names just in case) and after running into the bushes of the uni, and across a mini stream, we had to garden-hop our way to safety. Everyone surprisingly got away with it and we all met in Le Pub in Newport and had a victory Red Stripe!”

The grand British cuppa is a staple must-have for the winter period ahead of us. With the deep freeze about to hit our shores it looks like we will be spending a little more time indoors warming our souls than enjoying street beers once again. With that in mind and tea and coffee being the order of the day, here’s a selection of ceramic options that also make dope affordable Christmas presents this year.
INSANE CLASSIC STRAWBERRY MUG
Insane’s very own ceramic sets are made to perfection. This classic strawberry number is just one of many and come in incredible boxes that you will want to keep. Snoop more of them here.

LOVENSKATE TEA
We could not have done this without the kings of tea-bagging. Lovenskate have their own brew and mugs that are tried and tested in this office and always brings a smile.
CROSSFIRE x INSANE MUG COLLAB
Finally, our very own collab with the guys at Insane was a no-brainer. Their history in the British skate scene should be commended and we are stoked to have these out there this month. Pick one up from our online store before they are all gone.

H Clip 2013
When the Danes skate, they really enjoy themselves. This made me badly want to skate today. Get some.
A new full length documentary on the history of the Southern United States skate scene is being made right now featuring footage between 1984-1991. Lost In Transition takes a journey into back yard ramp scene that made skateboarding spread like wildfire in the mid 80s with footage of the 1988 Underground Skatepark NSA Contest, The Ramp Ranch, The Garden Ramp, The Skatezone bowl in Atlanta, and The Charleston Hanger in South Carolina, both built by the legendary skatepark builder Tim Payne.
The DVD will include over an hour of bonus features, including rare contest footage and backyards ramps from across the South and will also be available on digital download before the turn of the year. This should be epic, put it on your wish list.

Watch CRegg Rondel’s 68ft stage dive
Following this weekend’s tragic stage dive by Watsky at the Warped UK show at Alexandra Palace, we delved into some other high dives from musicians and found that Boy Hits Car’s CRegg Rondel took a spectacular 68ft leap of faith at the K-Rockathon 10 in New York back in 2005. Think about just how high this is for a second. Nobody was injured in the melee and nobody had to apologise.
Scroll down for more epic dives caught on camera from Livewire’s selection.
