skipping...

Earlier in the summer, my friend Ollie finished a year long project on skips. basically looking at all the things a skip could be (in a v. goldsmiths way of course). So the skip became a swimming pool, a lounge, bedroom, garden. and my favorite a half pipe:
thing had very gnarly transitions and your leading leg had to be pretty relaxed

skateboarding needs you

little piece i'm thinking of putting on a deck at some point, it's really just trying to be jim phillips but hey why not? the mans the master.

the lucky people of shoreham

in deepest shoreham (near brighton) a new park is about to be born. this concrete wonderland is the first design by spectrum to be built in the uk, the project is being undertaken by geoform.

the park consists of a lovely clover bowl complete with pool coping, with a pool style deep end with sweet looking watefall trainsitions into it.


the street course is a cunningly designed affair with hand rails ledges banks etc.

it's great to see public money being spent on something thats actually skateble. Shoreham promises to be an unque addition to the uk skate scene, and well worth a trip

will let you know more when i do

and remember,
DONT SETTLE FOR MODULAR SKATE PARKS,

YOUR COUNCIL WORKS FOR YOU

DEMAND SOMETHING BETTER

pens ply and joy

here's another board i've started. artwork is an intense collection of skate related things i guess -> started drawing pool titles and ended up with this. ->will put more pictures up when i cut them (still have power problems in the work shop)
thinking that this will just be an 8.25" standard shaped board
