Dan's Longboard Travels A Long Way
It was only meant to be a quick session with Dan and his longboard, but I got a bit carried away and the short edit (below) is now splattered all over the interblog.
It can now be seen on Mpora, facebook, skatebook, jahlada website, skateperception, Slap forum, Sidewalk forum, and has even received a mention on good old Crossfire.
Time to put it on youtube now I guess.

Harlow Skatepark
The building of the new skatepark in Harlow is well underway. I've seen it with my own eyes and it is amazing!! I'll try and get some pictures up soon but for now here's a shot of the plans painted on the side of the Motel6 skateshop wagon.
Speaking of Motel6, I don't know if you know this, but it's probably the best place to get cheap shoes. Check out their eBay shop here http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Motel6-Skateboard-Shop

How Apt
Kingpin magazine have updated their website and it looks all brand spanking new, but in doing so they have messed up the Horsey interview link that we previously blogged.
They have however mentioned that the tie-dye freak is now riding for Teenage Runaway Urethane which is correct.

Rob Smith MCR Interview
Rob Smith's bottled face is probably healing up nicely by now and he has an online interview/podcast up on the Manchester based skateMCR.com website.
"In this podcast episode Rob talks about breaking both his arms at the same time, why he continues skateboarding, the coverage he is most proud of, and how THRUST was formed."
......check it out, it's halfway down the skateMCR blog!!!

Also, Central Skatepark's "2 Skateshop" are soon to be releasing a team board of a grim Manchester street featuring amongst other things, Consolidated's Olly Tyreman pissing on a fellow shop rider and our very own Rob Smith dressed as a prostitute.

Flogging Horsey
You've got to have had enough by now, right? No? OK. Horsey's Kingpin magazine website interview is now up here including the out-takes clip posted previously.

The Horsey Blog?
It's that bloody tie-dye loving freak again. This time with a load of unused footage that was filmed for the new "Better Than Life" DVD.
From The Horsey's Mouth
Horsey speaks too much. And people listen. And then they print what he says. I don't get it personally but if you want to read more words that were formed in his head then there's this old thing on the Mpora extreme sports website. Click the picture.
Good Perception
THE internet lurking site for all skater's into all things related to filming and editing has to be skateperception. On their video page they have different categories of videos such as promos, montages, trick tips, random footage, etc, etc. Each of these categories has a featured video and the current featured video in the "Event Coverage" category is the Death Skegness premiere clip that has been posted here previously.
So if you haven't seen it already, here's another shameless plug for the clip. Click it.

Rob's Poor Face
Rob Smith and the good lads at Central Skatepark in Manchester held their annual Xmas piss-up a couple of weeks ago. Amongst the drunkenness, Rob managed to get the nasty end of a broken bottle in the face. GET WELL SOON WOB WOB!!!!
......while we are on the subject of facial scarring, it's almost exactly a year ago when Schooner sustained a similar injury in Sydney, Australia, where he fell face first onto a pint glass at the end of a classic Oxford street night out.....

Ever Wondered What Happened To Wag?
Crazy experimental hair enthusiast and former Death am Wag has had enough of the stresses and strains of sponsored skateboarding and is happier now skating purely for fun. Wag is a Death lifer and solid member of the family. We have still 'Got his back' and we will make sure he has always got Death wood under his feet!

Horsey's Photo Practise
.....So I bought a digital SLR recently because I like the sound they make when you shoot sequences. On a freezing cold day in December the new bowl in Hertford got to see Horsey quickly knock out a mid-run frontside blunt for my lens in between shooting photos with real photographers who actually know what they are doing!
