The annual shred down on the coast of Hastings is awaiting you this weekend. No rain is scheduled either from this weather report. Start organising your travel plans.
Also note that on Saturday there’s a get together at the Level skatepark in Brighton. Full weekend of goodness coming up for those down South.
A Brazilian invasion made up of Pedro Barros, Murilo Peres and Vi Kakinho took over Pizzey Park and Elanora on the Gold Coast of Australia. Padless of course. Look out for some Steve Caballero and Omar Hassan footage in here too alongside some locals.
Want to see some Eric Koston gold? Raw street skating from the filming of Menikmati via French Fred should make your day.
Will Rosenstock’s new video A-Street is about to drop into skate shops very soon and now available onlineonline. Sit back and enjoy this Alex Schmidt section fueled by Dinosaur Jr and look out for Ty Beall, Jon Rowe, Gilbert Crockett and Taylor Caruso parts in the DVD too.

This week’s mildly roasted beef in a Brighton based local paper highlights the prank inclusion of skateboards being sprayed into the Hove Lawns cycle lane upsetting the council and local residents.
This looks fun for a second as obviously someone is having a laugh, but should cycle lanes be available to skateboarders? The last thing we need is more rules about being told where to go. We’ve have been victimised in many UK cities for years now, with some even issuing tickets for street skating as a ploy to herd people towards parks overly packed with ‘wheeled users’.
Someone who skates clearly wishes they actually existed raising ye olde saying of ‘be careful what you wish for’ out there as it just may become a reality…
