Harlow’s most hyperactive and keen to travel skaters Mr. Mark ‘Radman’ Radden has had some serious grief with his knee for some time to a point where getting up in the morning is a challenge in itself! Radman showed us his commitment by waiting until the Crossfire Xmas Jam was out of the way until going under the knife.

To show our appreciation for such commitment to skating against all the physical odds, we are giving Radman a Fresh Blood feature for the New Year and a massive get well soon over the Christmas period!

Look forward to seeing you shred next year mate!

Keep up with his recovery over on the Death Blog.

The video from this weekend’s Xmas Jam has dropped online this morning, watch it here and look out for a full feature tomorrow.

The Habitat squad demo’ing at the terrific Skatehalle park in the German city of Berlin. Kerry Getz, Daryl Angel, Guru Khalsa and Marius Syvanen bringing much finesse.

Here’s an edit from a recent Analog trip to Antwerp, Belgium, featuring Tom Harrison, Neil Smith, Ali Drummond, Jak Pietryga and Tom Knox. The eagle eyed may also spot France’s Julien Merour and Belgium’s own Phil Zwijsen in there too.

Punk and Skate legend Duane Peters knows how to rock his strides when in prison and tips you off on the jailhouse weld if your trousers are as baggy as Dan Wileman’s.

This Saturday’s Crossfire Xmas Jam went off in fine style at Bay66 and was attended by the creme of UK skateboarding and hundreds of upcomers who support our events. We are stoked this morning so thank you so much if you were involved in making it another successful get together.

The rains stayed away this year leaving us with bright sunshine and a dry park to shred which was bliss compared to 2008’s damp affair. So, what went down? Well, the car was obviously the focus this year as it was built to perfection by Dave, Mike and the Mutate Britain guys. Every part of it was skateable from the ledges and rails on the roof to the hippy jump window gaps.

Daryl Dominguez managed the best trick on the day with a varial heelflip 5-0 and Jess Young was the only man able to pull off a hippy jump through the windows. The mini ramp jam was its usual melee of madness and Greg Nowik won it once again taking the beer money. This session was fueled by Jak Tonge, Chris Oliver and many more. So many more tricks went down that you can see in the video edit released tomorrow so look out or it.

Big love to all who came down on the day to support UK Skateboarding, we salute you for your efforts. Extra special thanks to all at Bay66, Sidewalk, Blueprint, Death, Science, Drawing Boards, Kill City, Lovenskate, Motive, Heroin, Landscape, Unabomber, The Harmony and Crayon Skateboards for making it happen and organising a huge amount of team riders, you all fucking rule.
