A few Familia faces sessioned Berlin’s street spots for this latest edit. Footage of Shaun Witherup, Flex O’ Connor, Steph Morgan, Gary McNaughton in this, filmed by Andy Morgan.
Deathgrips have released a new track called ‘Birds’ that they posted overnight. Filled with metallic vocal stabs intense synth parts and dreamscape melodies their new nightmare soundtrack is an example of what the band have been working on in advance of 2014’s new album on their own imprint label.
Jackass skater Bam Margera woke up this morning in a Glasgow police station after being arrested last night at the Jury’s Inn hotel in Jamaica Street. Bam was with Eminem’s entourage and performed as a guest on Yelawolf’s set who was supporting Eminem’s headline show. He was charged for being a loud knob after trying to check in and finding his room was not booked, so he apparently threw a kiddie tantrum and then sinked some whisky before he got the bumhole and the fuzz were called.
“I had the pleasure of visiting Glasgow jail for 48 hours after performing with Yelawolf at an Eminem show. After that, I try to check into my hotel room. but they think i’m a street bum checking into a 4 Star Hotel and called the police. I got arrested for being loud in public. Halleluah!”
He was fined £500 at Glasgow Sheriff Court this morning. Good one.

Paul Parker is one of the UK’s very best illustrators in the UK and you will find him carving the transitions of Victoria Park regularly. This week he has a new Stone Age tee out on Volcom and a short video insight into how it was made, plus a shred at the local hole. If you crave more, scroll down for our Day in the Life video featue with him a while back, incredible works.
If you are old enough to remember this video hitting screens back in 2002 there’s a good chance you would have not forgotten this beastly ollie attempt by Ali Boulala filmed by French Fred for Flip’s epic ‘Sorry’ video.
This new footage features never-before-seen clips of Ali attempting the leap of faith, tackling 50 stairs in one day, and said last week on his FB page that: “This is by far the gnarliest thing I have ever filmed. He did on 2 separate occasions, including on a drizzling day, which makes it even crazier. Maybe it’s possible, maybe Ali could have done it with the right conditions.”
Who do you think would be able to make this 25 stair ollie today? Watch this archived gem and then discuss.
Lakai’s upcomers Sebo Walker and Jon Sciano feature in this recent park edit that dropped online overnight.

If the sound of a skater owned company with heritage in the scene is music to your ears, then HUF’s legacy is something unique to take in and cherish. Keith Hufnagel’s army impressed across Europe and then chose Manchester and London as their preferred destinations to show off their impressive shoe team in the UK. Following a signing at Note on Monday afternoon and some street shredding in between rain showers, a visit to London’s Slam City Skates went down ahead of this demo that attracted a full house on the sunny side of the Thames.
The crowds were four people deep at Southbank, the team were 10 crew strong with Keith Hufnagel, Josh Matthews, Kevin Terpening, Brad Cromer, Dan Plunkett, Joey Pepper, Peter Ramondetta and newly signed team riders Dylan Rieder and Austyn Gillette in tow with Thrasher fam. Enjoy our footage filmed on the day by Dan Buck Joyce and his Black Magic happy stick set to the sounds of Babysitter.
