An accidental double booking meant that the Superdead team couldn’t rip the Xmas Jam this year, instead the team took it to Blackpool’s Rampcity and Castleford’s Subvert skatepark and came back with plenty of rad shralpage caught on camera.
Watch below for the footage from the first weekend of demos, including skating from Andy Scott, Eddie Belvedere, Harry Lintell, Chris Barrett, Josh Parr, Awadh Mohammed, Nick Remon, Ben Rowles and Denis Lynn.
If Quartersnacks isn’t one of your favourite websites on the internet then I’m not sure what’s wrong with you but you should probably sort it out. For those of you unlucky enough to be living underneath a rock, Quartersnacks is like a friendly local New York cornershop where skaters drink purple drink, muse about skate culture and swap bootlegs but in blog form. They’ve just put out a video compiling some of their favourite concrete ripping moments from New York City in 2010.
As always, it’s full of ill-lit shralping and sketchy landings and definitely worth your time, so go and watch it below and be sure to keep up to date with the Quartersnacks fam. We love ’em.

Last Christmas The Berrics celebrated and Blueprint cemented their comeback into the skateboarding limelight with a United Nations I’m sure even the younger amongst you reading haven’t forgotten yet.
This year’s highlighted company need no re-introduction after the fantastic ‘Give Me My Money Chico‘ that dropped earlier this year; for those of you who haven’t heard, LRG’s United Nations is on Friday (Christmas Eve). Watch their trailer below and get hyped for an early Christmas Cracker.

Following on from his banging Nicky Howells edit, Bristol based filmer James Harris has compiled a selection of gems from the UK Ramp Hire Warehouse. It’s not too surprising how much he’s racked up given the weather that favours only the snowman, but we’re stoked on all of it.
Watch below for sheltered corkers from some of Bristol’s Finest Josh Arnott, Dan Lacey, Tom Gibbs, Sam Austin, Andy Coleman and Taylor Oakley.
In the latest episode of rad to come from the wonderfully restless Antiz camp, we see our European buddies (plus international Hobo extraordinaire Dallas Rockvam) recall everyone’s favourite task from THPS2 and ollie over the homeless.
See below for the guaranteed goodness that always comes with an Antiz edit with this latest Hobo Erectus clip. For an interview we did with the crew when they were busy being the homeless then click here.
Watch below for a glance into the future of Rasa Libre’s ‘Winter Solstice‘, a visual celebration of the days becoming lighter again.
In just forty seconds this little ‘Holiday Blend‘ blip is packed with enough sunshine-drenched goodness to get you scribbling out your entire Christmas wishlist and replacing it with the word ‘summer’.
New Kenny Reed footage means that we are all on Santa’s good list! Hooray!
Kansas based skateshop-chain Escapist have broken two things we previously thought were impossible. Firstly, we were able to witness Sean Malto hold it down for his hometown in a big way one more time before the year was out (not that we’re complaining) and secondly, we somehow witnessed Wiz Khalifa’s ‘Black and Yellow’ become even more awesome in this new context.
The trailer for the forthcoming full length video from the shop totally smashes it. The last two tricks will have you skipping back and the ‘red and yellow’ hook will have you up all night like some ketchup and mustard related nightmare. We can’t wait for this.
Does this make you want to get out there and skate an empty park?
Yeah you can’t finish a week better than this…
Melbourne based interactive designers ENESS were asked to create something to bring skateboarding fully into the digital age. Forget straight-to-itunes edit, what everyone really wants is a session where we replace the beers and dog piss with streaming neon lights and electronic fireworks.
This session went down at the Tron: Legacy premiere in Melbourne, a film which you should probably go see. Because it’s awesome. As is the video below. Enjoy.

Earlier in the year, Emerica’s UK/Europe team hooked up with Dom Marley and Dan Magee for a hit and run skate mission in the London Underground.
‘Oh great, a couple of wallrides then…’, I’m sure a few of you have already spoken those words subconsciously at the thought of an underground edit. Well, you’re all in for a surprise with this one. Consider how everything done has gotta be first try too, this is stealth skateboarding at its best.
Watch below to see what a skate video directed by Hideo Kojima would look like as Tom Knox, Chris Ault, Rory Milanes, Rob Maatman and Eniz Fasilov mind the gap and shred the forbidden surfaces of the Big Smoke’s commuter inferno…
