Death Skateboards have avoided snow at all costs this month. The team are currently on a trip in Cyprus alongside Sidewalk photographer Chris Johnson and should return next week with footage for their next DVD project and probably another rocking feature for the mag. Death head honcho Zorlac mentioned this week that the next Death film is ‘likely to feature more British music than ever before‘ but would not give anything else away. Expect bangers as usual…
The latest deck out right now is the new ‘I heart Death‘ 8″ on light and poppy wood. Check out http://www.deathskateboards.blogspot.com/ for loads of good shit, including Cates South America trip, and unseen footage.
He is one of the UK’s most original skateboarders to ever grace the country. A man who can skate anything, be it in rain, sleet or snow, or on brick, wood or Mr Kiplings’s finest bakewell tarts. Lay it in front of him and he will shred it. This week Chris ‘Avi’ Atherton has joined the Teenage Runaway wheel company and we are sure that they will have their entire stock shredded in the first 3 months. Roll on Chris.
Creature Skateboards’ Hesh Law video is in the works and will hatch very soon.
