If you expected Phil Zwijsen to sit around feeling sorry for himself when he’s injured then think again. His downtime only meant two things had to happen. Firstly to recuperate and secondly to get creative with others.
Enjoy Jacky with footage of Alex Raeymaekers, Axel Cruysberghs, Bram Decleen, Hans, Claessens, Jarne Verbruggen, Maarten De Ryck and Yeelen Moens who all feature in this black and white, 17 minute promo, shot in Belgium.
Jeff Grosso goes back in time to point out that skateboarders brought something different to the planet. Lennie Kirk, Steve Olsen, Blender, Andy Roy, Red and so many more involved in this one. I bet there’s a list you can draught up of those that didn’t make it too.
Choose skateboarding.

Baker’s Dustin Dollin proves that you pay to play in this 180 to fakie 50/50 battle that made his ender in the last Shake Junt flick. Relentless pain from a filthy rough hubba.
Take in this frontside bigspin triple heelflip from Dave Sledge(hammer) as he nails a beast. Stunned by this one. Can’t wait for the haters to say his hand went down LOL.
David Gravette’s new part in the Creature‘s CSFU video is absolutely ridiculous. All terrain is slayed, both palms are probably resembling pizza’s and the tricks are absolute jokes. If you are going to watch anything online this week, this is it.
Scroll down the page for more extra footage and look out for the new video in your local skate shop or free with Thrasher.
Get Lesta have uploaded some more G-Sides from behind the scenes of their first full length video. Nine minutes of filming with Kris Vile is What’s Cookin’ so press play to see just how long it takes to get a section together. Fucking gnarly.
