Head over to Rob Smith’s photo blog from LA to view the second week of snaps taken on his travels in California this week.
The Guildford skate scene used to have an amazing little indoor warehouse open back in the early 90’s and also hosted a small outdoor park just nearby the Lido in Stoke Park. Due to wear and tear, this park is about to be replaced and this week, skateboarders of Surrey have unleashed the proposed new design from Wheelscape for you to have a look at here.
Let us know what you think in the comments below.

Following Joe Pease edit
John Rattray filmed Joe Pease over a few days and has cut the footage wonderfully here. Click play for some amazing work from both of them and read a full interview with the Australian who has some great stories with friends, Jake Duncome, Shane Cross and Matt Mumford here.
Scottish pro John Rattray treats us to a different perspective of himself skating today and growing a beard in this new clip from his Predatory Bird blog. In his own words:
Every now and again Jupiter and Venus are in conjunction in the western sky. Rare shit like that occasionally coincides with me getting a trick that might be worth dropping off at Zero and dumping into the Cold War folder. In between those scarce moments, in order to avoid plunging into the deathly-dark pit of boredom and depression, I tend to make videos inspired by skateboarding. This video is a collection of self-portrait clips shot over the course of a 3 month period in which I completely forgot to shave. The more observant among you may glimpse flashes of severe joy and inner pain throughout.
P.S. It doesn’t have to be Jupiter and Venus, it could be any rare celestial configuration, a blue moon for example.
Ishod Wair‘s new Pro Model on Real Skateboards borrows artwork from the classic Ice T album ‘Power‘ released back in 1988. Power is a classic underground hip hop album whose iconic artwork was photographed by creative photographer Glen E. Friedman at the time and still gets plays here at Crossfire.
Watch this new clip of Ishod whose skating has done the talking at the highest level so far.
Concrete skateparks take a lot of effort to build and the skaters who are behind this hard graft sometimes don’t get the chance to skate as much as they would want to. With that in mind it’s good to see Bristol’s Wheelscape grafters hitting up Hullen Edge, Weston Park and Bollington Skateparks up North on a recent trip whilst the weather was better than it is out there right now.
Rob Smith’s weekend at the Death house video continues from part one of this Something for the Weekend edit. Watch Steak bring the metal, the burgers burning on the BBQ, a mini ramp session and a bowl session at Dick’s with Craig Questions, Jake Snelling, Rob Smith, Dan Cates Sam Taylor and more.
Oh, and don’t ever fall asleep on the job in the company of this lot. You will find out why when you press play.
The Brighton & Hove Skatepark Association made up from the riders and supporters of the Brighton & Hove skatepark community have published a new skatepark design for The Level to discuss this week.
This skatepark is one of the most legendary in the country and has played host to the development of some of the UK’s most influential skateboarders and industry tastemakers. Tell us what you think of these plans in the comments below.
