Day in the life of Paul Regan
Andy Rayner recently went to Hull with the northern skateboarding machine Paul Regan. Filming a few bits swiftly turned into a day in the life style section with full Muska style all-in-one day bangers.
Check it out below and try to conceive filming all that in one day…

The fifth video entry of Dan Cintra’s Manchester based ‘Bloggatron‘ series surfaced a few days ago.

Over the weekend, Hamburg’s Red Light District hosted the European Vans Downtown Showdown which once again saw some of the continent’s best skate teams battle it out on creative terrain built by the team’s themselves.
The Cliché obstacle took inspiration from Hamburg’s poledancers and the bank/round rail was the first session of the day. Phil Zwijsen started as he meant to carry on – by winning.

1st – Phil Zwijsen
2nd – Chris Oliver
3rd – Hugo Liard
Next up was Element’s obstacle. Their ‘oil spill’ didn’t cause too much environmental damage but Phil Zwijsen again proved to be the damaja with it comes to shredding up the custom made turf.
Element Obstacle
1st – Phil Zwijsen
2nd – Samu Karvonen
3rd – Ross McGouran
Rather than going the typical route, Death’s obstacle was instead an amalgamation of their favourite spots throughout Europe and was dubbed ‘The Pirate Spot’. Sam Partaix destroyed this and earned his position as the day’s Best Pro.

How often do you see people f/s bigspin down triple sets? Now think about how often you see them do it whilst weaving through security guards? Never, right?
Watch the clip below to see Justin Brock do just that as well as one of the sickest lines you might see this week in his chapter in Quiksilver’s The Skateboarding Collection video series.
Thornes Park in Wakefield will be hosting Gravity’s 2010 Concrete Carnival and there are a vast amount of sponsors giving away stuff so you better be writing this down: it’s on Sunday 22nd August.
It all kicks off at 11am so get yourselves down as there are planned comps for all ages with prizes from every skateboarding company you can see on the flyer below.
The CSC are quite appropriately rinsing Cardiff’s new plaza of concrete and wonder and are concluding a month of shredding with the grandly titled CSC World Championships on August 30th. How much do you want to bet that CSC are going to win?
With the usual skate, beer, barbeque and giveaways in store this is definitely another event you should be adding to your must-attend lists.
Welsh heads can keep up to date with the all the news updates celebrity gossip and lies at the CSC website. For genuine information, check the flyer below.

Jimmy Carlin Color Theory

It’s no surprise to see that Jimmy Carlin has put out yet another ridiculous section though. Here’s what turned him pro, click the image below and get stuck in. Wow.
