This news will be music to your ears. The local skaters of Kettering have been under the siege from their local council who have started a war against skateboarding as they wish to criminilise it under a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO).
Obviously this hasn’t gone down to well with the local skate shop Chopper Skate who have been fighting it with a petition that could do with your support.
The battle has now picked up support from Green Party Parliamentary Candidate Rob Reeves, who has made an appeal for the town to rally against the order to stop a ban on skateboarding ahead of the upcoming election and has joined Chopper in the battle.
“Many of the items on the PSPO proposal should never have even been considered, but now that they are included, we need as many people as possible to engage with the proposal and fill in the forms with their suggestions,” says Reeves. “If they don’t, then this could lead to a blanket ban on skateboarding in the town. The phrase used in the proposal is banning the “misuse of skateboards”. How one ‘misuses’ a skateboard is beyond me and is obviously open to the interpretation of the council and police. Furthermore, is this the way we deal with the fact that people find themselves having to beg? By banning them from the town centre? this does not deal with the root cause at all.”
Chopper’s Mark Healy has written an open letter to Kettering council formerly requesting that they “halt this motion and start a proper process of consultation and data gathering. We request a review of your plans and extension of public consultation period as a matter of urgency, and the scrapping of the proposed PSPO while we work together to find a way to share our town without criminalising our population.”
You can have a say in this matter by heading here to sign the petition. Good luck to all involved.
Okay, this part is utterly incredible.
Jimmy Larsen seeks “spots” that others would not even consider to skate, and kills himself to get clips. If you love a good mosher drop, hippy jump or some more en vogue no comply variations, then watch this now.
Takes Skate Edit of the Week like a don.
There’s no doubt about it The Workshop has been busy. This latest breath of life shows us that Alien’s art direction will never change although the company itself morphing massively and riders be equally as rad.

John Cattle has organised an online auction to help fund the concreting of Ventnor Skatepark on the Isle of Wight to save it from the elements. Maybe you can help their scene raise a few quid as they need £50,000 over the next 12 months to make it happen and need your support.
Their Big Art Auction includes work from artists Ged Wells, Greg Conroy, Harvey Mills, Tom Moore and Jon Horner to name a few and no doubt there will be more on offer as time goes on.
This painting of Flynn Trotman in Barcelona (originally shot by Leo Sharp) is just one up for grabs, visit the site to see everyone’s pieces and spread the news, it’s for a good cause.
