The Built to Skate 2007 video is now ready for you to push your eyes into, just by clicking here
Featuring Phillip Schuster, Roman Astleitner, Ralf Edlinger, Andi Fugger, Julia Brückler, Daniel Spiegel, Mathäus Zingerle and more, the idea was to build spots in Austria, then tour them in 2 days getting as many tricks on them as possible.
The result is Built to Skate 2007, a 6 spot, 1000km mission across Austria.
The 5th District Skateboards team are proud to announce that Guy Kampfen has joined their ranks and will be doing frontside tailslide fakie manual reverts.
Not on Monday morning thanks, too tech for me, but good luck to Guy!
Just in case you were wondering how to say ‘kickflip’ to the hard of hearing, check this website below.
My favourite is ‘K-grind’ because it looks like a rad dance move.
Fridays fun starts and ends here! Smoke the bat…
The new EA Skate game was launched recently, with 7 parks across the UK getting some brand spanking new concrete block replicas of world famous skatespots. The launch day saw these blocks dropped into Revolution, Baysixty6, The House, The Factory, Rampworx, The Works, and The Park.
Check the photo montage below for shots of the blocks and who’s done what. Big shout out to Badger at Bullet Clip for all his hard work with the project and making sure that these concrete beauties are there for everyone to use for free.
So, all you need to know is that the comp is still on. All you lot have to do is film your best trick on one or all the blocks, and upload it to http://skate.electronicarts.co.uk
or http://skate.electronicarts.co.uk/news/content/4/
The winners get to go where those blocks are from, so in total 4 people will go to San Franscisco for 7 days and 10 people will go to Barcelona for 4 days, accommodation and flights are paid for. Why are you still reading this? Get in there!
