Don’t miss your chance to check out the Accolade Award winning film The Man Who Souled The World when it releases in theatres across the US this Friday.

The movie tells the definitive story of Steve Rocco and the early 1990s skate scene, providing a no-holds-barred expose on one of the most progressive and influential eras in skate history. The theatrical release is proudly supported by Ally and World Industries.

Nothing yet on the UK premiere, but fingers crossed something will get sorted, as we all owe this guy a lot.

Last week Split churned out a tell-us-a-story session with their Elvis inspired pro Jason Adams. The Kid cracks open his bonnet on a trip down the famous Route 66 with barrier worship included of course. That Split site also good swimwear. Get in there.

Looks like skateboarding was getting tough in SF during the 80’s when it comes to the ladies. Check out the Skate Witches and then imagine them in a jelly wrestling situ with The Pink Ladies. Rogue crew look out cos if they are still rocking in 2007 you girls are finished!

It’s one of those fuck all to do with skateboarding news pieces – but are these 2 muppets friends of yours?

To further add to the internet hype around this video, (which I heard was all shot on 35mm by Steven Spielberg in space), Lakai are running a competition for one lucky person and a friend to win a fully paid for trip and be flown out to the world premiere on November 16th.

The “Fully Flared, I’m There” competition runs until October 11th so get your skates on and enter on the Lakai website.

Volcom’s Wild In The Parks tour gets ready to land at Transition Extreme skatepark in Aberdeen, which is preparing itself for an onslaught of ridiculous skating on Saturday October 6th.

Prizes are being sorted out, skaters are organising travel plans, including Volcom team riders Kris Vile, Ben Raemers, Chris Ault and Rory Milanes. With that lineup, and seeing how those guys destroyed it at our Southbank Jam, I might book my ticket up to Scotland now.

The day will get underway around 2pm with a “15 and under” group and “16 and over” battling it for those prizes. And don’t forget the after party at Moshulu, free entry from 9.30pm and music by the one and only NATO and NEX. Git yeesells there…

Nike SB are pleased to announce the London premiere of their brand new video epic Nothing But The Truth on Tuesday October 16th at 8pm, at the Royal Festival Hall.

Not only that but a list of Nike riders as long as your arm will be doing a signing at 12pm, including Brian Anderson, Daryl Angel, Justin Brock, Chet Childress, David Clark, Reese Forbes, Clark Hassler, Stefan Janoski, Todd Jordan, Lewis Marnell, Lance Mountain, Dan Murphy, Rodrigo Peterson, Paul Rodriguez, Omar Salazar, Daniel Shimizu, Danny Supasirirat, Grant Taylor and Wieger Van Wageningen. The UK Nike SB team will also be skating Southbank that afternoon as well, so make sure you head along.

Here’s the YouTube link, pass this on.

The rains kept at bay long enough for the Brighton Level Jam to go down on Saturday. With locals Louis Cooper and Amir Williams in attendance, some bangers got thrown down for the shouting crowds.

Results of the day were:

1st- Amir Williams
2nd- James Kilpatrick
3rd- Tom Felix

Peel your eyes with a knife, and you might see a little feature on the Jam this week on the Crossfire site. In the meantime, Amir destroys the haggard wood of the Level with kickflip frontside boardslides
