Thrasher Death Match at SXSW
Every year the South By South West (SXSW) music and film festival in Texas sees hundreds of bands playing on the streets, in cafe’s, throwing BBQ chicken at each other and a lot of beer gets drunk.
Thrasher had their Death Match going down on a mini ramp whilst Odd Future and Pentagram played live, watch the footage of it right here.
When you think of Mumbai in India it’s not difficult to remember the terror the country went through in 2008 when terrorists went on the rampage through the city centre killing over a hundred people. In 2011 normal practice has been resumed but there’s also some unexpected skateboard designs being reported from an art project that has spanned over many month’s until local woodcarvers deliver their take on transforming a lump of wood into ornamental but usable art objects.
In other Indian skate news, a brand new concrete park in Bangalore is taking shape thanks to the involvement of UK skater Nick Smith who you may remember from the Goan skate park project a few year’s ago. Nick is coordinating a large concrete park opening in Bangalore that is pretty much ready to go and will have its grand opening day on April 1st this year. The park packs a quirky design to keep travelers stoked on their trip so get in touch with Nick if you are looking to escape the UK for somewhere different this year, they have even just welcomed a fresh dump of boards, shoes and everything you need out there too this week. Get planning your mission.

Abbe Nyberg bangs the Berrics
Last November we brought you You Got Soul from Newsoul Skateboards in Sweden, an edit that featured a brilliant ender by the technically gifted Abbe Nyberg.
If you missed that then go back in time to rediscover but first you need to play this little edit from the Berrics as once again this is simply amazing skateboarding for all the right reasons.
If there’s one skate DVD this year not to miss it’s this one. From Day One is Real Skateboards forthcoming video featuring the full team and is should be an absolute gem. The UK premieres in various skate shops around the country have been announced this morning so look at the flyer to see if there’s a shop near you to pop into and watch it.
Sorry London but you will have to go down to Brighton for your nearest premiere – no love for us this time. Maybe more will be announced though so don’t sigh too loud just yet.
