The national unsponsored competition is back at Adrenaline Alley in Corby this year on July 25th.

The comp designed exclusively for unsponsored skaters to get out there and show the UK how much raw, unearthed talent there is. So if you’re under 16 and think you’re something then stop pissing around at your local park and shake up the scene a bit at Young Guns this month.

Entry costs a tenner but there’s a mammoth load of prizes to be won and a banging time to be had. Get out there and get some this summer.

Last year’s Vans Shop Riot comp went off in Manchester and this year we head to Leeds at The Works to see skate shops from across the UK throw their best riders into the fray for chance to get to the finals in Switzerland.

The event kicks off on July 18th and it’s free entry so get down and don’t be surprised if you get caught up somewhere in the torrent of brilliant garbage and inspirational heckling from Marc Churchill’s megaphone.

Are you like us and like to geek out over everything to do with the four wheeled plank we worship? Who did what, at which spot, on what board, with who filming and how many tries it took and was it ABD in 411 Issue no.52?

Well, get hyped because a new trivia game will be testing all of the knowledge acquired from slacking on the real world and watching skate videos with some of skateboarding’s most fun-to-watch nerds. The series kicks off on Transworld’s website with an inevitable banger, Rick Howard and Mike Carroll. Have a look below for the trailer and stay tuned…

DVS have posted a video of their recent ‘Don’t Mess With Raising Arizona‘ tour through Arizona and Texas with some typically rad park shredding from the likes of Jimmy Cao, Marty Murawski, Nick Garcia, T-Puds, Kerry Getz, and Andrew Brophy.

Marty’s fakie manuals have become otherworldly so tuck-in to this great clip and keep your eyes open for some Daewon mini-ramp lines near the end. Summer is really, really good.
