Stumbled across this sweet little edit from Benji Meyers ‘Weekend Warriors‘. Always good to have friends.

News of the day is that Chris ‘Avi’ Atherton‘s 2008 edit has been posted up today. It’s always a pleasure to watch this bloke hit anything in sight. View the footage below and then go skating.

Matix have a brand new advert and it’s sweet. Watch fun on the Tangram below.

Danijel Todorovic has left The Harmony.

Their recent blog post reads:

‘Well its with a heavy heart we say farewell to one of The Harmony’s first born son’s. That’s correct, Danijel ‘The Jugga’ Todorovic is moving on from our shallow waters to try out pastures new. No new home just yet, but he feels as though he wants to commit to personal projects.’

Watch his farewell montage here.

New winter decks, wheels and killer tees from The Harmony are about to be released. Don’t miss them.
