HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Looks like 2011 is gonna be a good on in terms of new stuff being built to skate.
Zander sent me this clip of Matty and Benson testing out the new nearly finished indoor bowl in Livi. Looks pretty damn amazing.

M25 DRIFT



Boots and Cates have been doing some high speed drift racing on the M25.
Luckily they both walked away unscathed, but the trusty Vectra needs a new number plate and a T-Cut.
Careful out there.

Boots, Cates and Nicolson brave the cold (alongside Harlows finest - Harry Hughes) and make it to Harold Hills Random Ramps in these clips.



THANK YOU RANDOM RAMPS!!!

HELP THE MASTER OF DISASTER



PLEASE HELP THE MASTER OF DISASTER

You can thank Duane Peters for skating the way you do. You can thank Duane Peters for defining skateboarding in the 1980s, and setting it on its current course. He took the elegant freestyle of the 1970s and shoved it through a meat grinder. He took skateboarding "Off The Wall" and went balls-to-the-wall. He put the snarl in gnarl, the punk in rock, the fuck in you.

Duane Peters isn't a relic--he didn't invent the Indy Air and disappear, retire, or fade away. Pushing 50, DP has been charging as hard as ever, skating, touring, slamming, and getting right back up to do it again.

But recently the Master Of Disaster had a bad knee injury turn worse. Gangrene. The doctors prepared to amputate his leg, but Duane pleaded to save it. He knew that no leg would mean no skating. And without skating, he'd descend into old habits that would pretty quickly kill him.

He's been cleaning himself up, sharing the rough road with thousands of Twitter followers (@DuanePeters), and keeping his head straight to be able to raise his son, Clash. But skateboarding is the compass that makes that effort possible. No leg, quite simply, means no skating. And that would mean the end of the Master Of Disaster.

Saving his leg means saving himself. "Skate or Die" has never been more true than it is for Duane, right now.

But to save his leg, Duane's been undergoing intense treatment and therapy. It's rigorous, painful, and very expensive. He's been selling everything he owns on eBay, and he's got thousands of dollars in medical bills stacked up against him.

Duane needs our help (not just you or me, but us). He would never ask, so we are asking. The dozens of members of this coalition we call Rebate. It's about skaters helping skaters. It's about seeing a brother like DP backed against the wall and doing something about it. Whatever you can.

If we all lend a hand, two things will happen: we will collectively raise some money to help Duane save his life, and in our efforts Duane will realize what he's given us all. Over the decades he's remained a champion for skateboarding. A champion of what skateboarding means.

Do your part. Do what you can. Donate money. Donate a valuable collectible item for auction. Whatever you can. But DO something.

Help the master Of Disaster get through this, and get back on his board where he belongs. He deserves this. And you deserve this opportunity.

Send checks (payable to Duane Peters) and any items product/Art/Pictures (signed if possible) for auction by Feb 18th 2011 to:

Duane Peters REBATE
17421 Nichols Lane, Suite L
Huntington Beach, CA 92647

THEY ARRIVED.


Yup the Boots 'Circles' boards are here, and looking damn good even if I do say so myself.
Hopefully the bright colours offset the squalor of my office a bit. But remember, low overheads means the best quality product for cheap! (The colours look much brighter in real life, this pic was taken on a camera phone).

ADAM MOSS ON SKATE GYPSY!!

SAVE BAYSIXTY6 SKATEPARK!!


The Westway Development Trust are seeking planning permission to turn the area the skatepark is situated, under the A40, into a garden centre and office space. Their reasoning behind this "The Skatepark does not serve needs of the local youths".

Can this be serious?? Sounds ludicrous doesn't it... Getting rid of the only undercover and supervised skatepark for miles around for ANOTHER garden center and MORE offices. But Im afraid it is serious! And planned to happen VERY SOON.

So show your support to save it!
