Get hyped on the two volume book that’s coming from the archives of R.A.D Magazine that will soon be unleashed and filled with British, European and World skateboarding history from the original photographers and writers of the mag.
The treasure trove of material that has been dug up over many years will be a must have, so if you want to own a historical piece of skateboarding history, then order a copy and pledge to fund the print asap on Kickstarter. From this link you will find exactly what has gone into this wonderful project!
Back it and make it happen today!

Good news for Tom Day this week, and well deserved too. He is Heroin Skateboards’ new pro rider with a new rig available in your local very soon, explained here by Fos.
“The Good Shit Drips is a throwback to boards we did for Pulman and Howard in 2004, and the “Sanest days are mad” is a nod to Pulman’s LFA part from 2005 mixed with his dads hoarding tendencies. 8.25 and 8.5 respectively.”
Enjoy his footage from Jim Craven’s rad edit, Land.
