Level Army ripper Sam Banham has sadly passed. He was a big character down at Brighton’s infamous Level skatepark and was fearless when it came to shredding. Alan Glass has edited a tribute video this weekend. RIP.

I love watching this dude skate. He has some serious board control and pop to die for. Check in with Luis Tolentino and friends for a day skating around Queens.

James Hardy has returned with by far the best skate edit you will see this week filmed entirely in and around Alabama. He takes out pretty much everything in his path, the spots are raw as fuck, the ollies are never ending, every rail gets annihilated and this bloke just keeps giving – as does skateboarding this year.

2013 is becoming a vintage year for great footage, and Thrasher seem to be holding every damn key to it. Hats off to all involved in anyhting as good as this. Watch Hardy’s Homecoming section that is hands down Skate Edit of The Week.

Enjoy this San Diego gnar fest with Blood Wizard rippers Jerry Gurney, Anakin Senn, Jerry Gurney, Toad, Rob Mason, Drew Dezort and friends of the Dark Forest- Mason Merlino, Matt Hourani, and Anthony Schultz.

Blood Wizard are now distributed by Stable Dist in the UK.

If you saw the Team Average clip recently featuring Dylan Reider, Natas and more in New Zealand, this edit kind of follows on from it.

Slow down into La Casa time where both skaters stayed for ten days of ramp building, creating and relaxating. This video is the first of two with the Natas feature coming next week. Keep your eyes on our skate news.

Loved Emerica’s Stay Gold? Marcel Levstek here decided to re-edit the full b-side over three days of hard graft and roll out his own version of it. Emerica approves. Enjoy.

Thrasher have rolled out an amazing peep into San Francisco’s punk rock skate scene with this new 30 minute documentary on the life and times of shredding set around The House. Various Anti-Hero aficionado’s and friends lived and partied hard in this gaff on 6 Newell Street where anything goes.

Enjoy footage from Oakland’s Bordertown skate park, street-slaying, crack-pipers, booze-rippers and much more.

Canadian skate distributors Timebomb rocked Vancouver’s streets on Go Skateboarding Day with a huge turnout for an RVCA and Etnies sponsored cruise. Watch Paul Trep, Micky Papa and whole host of others killing spots as they go for what looked to be a great day out for all.

The latest Palace Skateboards collab is with the sports brand Reebok as announced today. Pretty amazed to see them not choose a skate shoe company to work with, but apparently you can skate in these shoes if you read above.

Theories of Atlantis have unleashed some previously unseen archived Tom Penny footage that has been sat on a hi-8 tape somewhere collecting dust for yonks. This was filmed at an early Tampa pro event in 1996 alongside a clip from 1995 of Tom skating vert in San Diego. 17 years later, it’s on your screen.

Enjoy, and raise a glass to Oxford’s finest.
