In between changing nappys and attempting to sleep I chucked together a bunch of stuff thats been lurking on my hardrive. Few hidden bangers, few "alternate angles" (ha!) and a lot of fun skating.

Bristol's got something indoor for skaters, it's fucking rad and should be supported. Big "ups" to Tim and Andre for getting this going.

After promising to myself to be more productive this year I've got involved with a new blog/zine from the Seattle area - Oh my back. It's pretty rad and will have a lot of transition based gubbins, along with some quality music. And my crap.

Check it out here, or add us as a friend on the Fadbook

Oh and I am a kook and proud.

Prime Time

2010-12-18T11:05:00.004Z

We've been overdue a roadtrip for a while so did the wiggle down to Plymouth last weekend to hook up with Scott and Whip, picked up Mikey on the way and convinced Dougal to come join in the fun. Prime skatepark was the destination and much shredding was done.

No footage though even though I remembered to charge the battery I forgot to take it out the charger and put it in the camera. Shame that as I could have shown you Mike's rad 50-50 to heelflip out, Dougals monster nosegrind, Joe killing himself by moshing up and onto everything, Whip being sketchy Whip, Jesus being "that street dude" and new Newport kid Tom taking the piss in the ramp room. You'll just have to make do with these shitty pics instead.

Crew shot.

AN UPDATE?

2010-11-16T19:09:00.001Z

Been off ill today so figured I'd do something a little bit constructive.

Here's a bunch of stuff from the past summer, bit of autumn and an old bit of Dave cos he was knackered.

"I fookin hate it..."

2010-07-14T17:33:00.004Z

For the 3rd weekend in a row I ended up venturing down to Kernow to enjoy some waves and skating, only this time I got to drag along Mr Happy Camper himself - Anthony "Hate" Dickinson. We hooked up with Whip and had a rare old time in Plymouth at the new Prime park where we filmed some rad shit, then promptly recorded over it the next day. Amatuers.

We took Smell surfing, which he hated, went to Tuckingmill, which he probably hated too and also Playing Place where surprisngly he had a good time, and I quelled my 15 yr demon and did a wack-ass rock on roll on the extension. All counts mind.

Good times and plenty of pasties. WIZARD SHIT.

Playing place overview. Sweep it.

Whip rock fakie with big hand.

Whip front disaster, the first one he did was sketchy even for him.

Smell front pivot while hating the graffitti, leaves, bmxers and everything else.

Can you imagine Morrissey as a hesher? Here you go. Smell tailblocks while covered in felt tip.

Oh and I went to check out Cheddar with the Kickturn Cowboys last sunday, super rad little park. This and Midsomer MURRDAAH = fun times...

Gaffer bricking it.

2010-05-04T18:37:00.004Z

Myself and Mrs Scumtash popped over (well compared to flying to San Diego) to Hamburg over the May day weekend to stay with our gracious host Detective Eva Schramm. As usual I was allowed some skate time so made the most of it by visiting the sick DIY Rote Flora bowl and getting in a sneaky hour at the iPunkt skatepark.

We'd managed to avoid the traditional mayday riots that are centered around the Rote Flora Theatre which is a mecca for squatters, crustys and teen punks. It was just like the old punks picnic but with quality German beer instead of scrumpy. The riots had left their mark though in the form of burnt out bins, smashed up banks and glass everywhere - but the bowl was unscathed apart from some sketchy muddy puddles.

Anyways Mrs 'tash snapped away and didn't do too bad for her first foray into the exciting world of exxxtreeeeme Diltonbertleslide skate action.

iPunkt streety bit. Pointless child hell with added pointless dad. The little steep banks on the left were super fun tho.

The quite frankly MASSIVE cradle and vert wall in the iPunkt bowl. If anyone grinds this I'll buy em at least 2 pints.

Obligatory #1 and #2. Fer Alec.

Crailtapperskidder into the puddle. SPLASH.

Whats German for "Dilton Marsh"? I think it might be Bielefeld....

Rote Flora was rad - hella tight corners and the back bit was like the wierdest 10ft vert ramp/bowl kinker transition thing ever all with pool coping. There's even a love seat in the back left corner, and just out of shot is the mental mini cradle on the right of the small ramp - that was fucked. I loved this place and if anyone fancies a trip out there let me know cos I'm keen...

I hate being ill, missed a week of sun and surf coughing up green shite. Last time I'm swallowing water from Rest Bay (probably not).

Did make up for the lack of excitement by dragging the boyos over to Keynsham on sunday to dodge annoying skooter kids and do some timed laps of the new park. Stole Peek's posh camera too and got a bunch of sequences, lotsa fun.

We also had a short but sweet shred at the Easton mini where Habgood found the stupidest drop-in ever. Next time - no crash mats.

2010-03-30T17:55:00.003Z

Serious flashbacks last week with a trip down to Cornwall and a wednesday night session at Mt Hawke with Whip and a bunch of Cubert and Newlyn East boyos. Proper good laugh, the park has changed a lot since I was there last - gone are the £2 all day sessions and sneaking the pikeys in the firedoor, say hello to a bunch of new minis, a monster vert and helmets (For a few minutes at least).

As usual I had too much fun skidding and slashing about so got the bare minimum of footage to really constitute a blog post.

Whips old mate Peanut hadn't stepped on a board for a good 5 years, it didn't show. Check the back foot - proper job. RnR on the extension.

Whips's got it all - stupid facial hair, wonky legs and a retarded facial expression. Nice one badger. Front rocker.

"Nicky Howells is a rollerblader"

2010-03-16T12:13:00.008Z

On what was probably the first sunny, warm day of the year we took a little trip up to the new(ish) Hereford park. This one's another step up for UK park makers - a whole heap of fun street type stuff, a serious pool (which I have issues with) and 2 new bowls, one of which is easily on a par with the Pacific NW parks (i.e. it's farkin massive). Nice one Wheelscape. Get yerselves up there.

Habgood bet Nicky Howells he could do a kickflip up the wembly gap in 10 go's and if he did Nicky had to film a rollerblade section. He did it and we're still waiting...

Ghetto vid us usual featuring Jesus, Habgood, Frank, Beanhead, Nicky Howells and 2 old duffers who should know better.

Birfday boy Habgood had a bit of a skate up the Sssshecret warehouse last weds. LOTS of heads there - from the Killcity Newport rippers through to Nordberg back rolling which was good to see.

I got drunk, pointed the cam at stuff for a few seconds and failed to film or take pics of anything good at all. Sofuckyers.

Sweeper to warm up...

...then down to business - Noseblunt along and off into the bank.

Shot some footage on the digi stills thing with the fisheye, worked alright so expect some more.

This weekend saw a relocation of Bristol transition terrorists to Rampcity skootlepark, Blackpool for the day. Not to paddle in brown water or drink in neon hellholes, but to sample the deeee-lights of the re-homed Simparch bowl and fullpipe. There is a huge skatepark there but I don't think I left the bowl room execept to grab a bacon barm.

Sick session, big gay forum bumoff ensued too - Frocker, Joxa, Rogie and even Zoro turned up. Radness. Same again after Xmas anyone?

Sam deep t'shallow slashIup.

Joxa grabbygrabby.

Jesus does rad smiths.

Rad rad day as I've said, nice one to all who came along and made it a riot. Captain Pigdog will have an edit up at some point I guess but for now check out Tims flickr collection of professional job pics.

2008-11-23T13:41:00.013Z

Eeeek - an update!! Me n Dave bunked off (Well less of a bunk off for me due to no work) and went to Newport bowls. It was rad and Rick made a special guest appearence. Faackin tearin splews.

You won't believe how long it took him to do this slasher. It was somewhere between "fuckin ages" and "infinity".

Must have been a good day, even I got a trick. Over "t'tail".

This was proper Daddy Gnarbuckles. Front rock where front rocks shouldn't be done. Jazzcat wins again.

Deaner day was with us again this year, and as usual it went off. Sun, beer, BBQ and the po-po all combined with awesome effect. I decided to get arty in the "blog war" with Jim and these here snaps are the outcome.

Yes Porno was there. Yes he was this excited all day // THE GAFFER IS NOT A CRIME

The Captain maintained this pose for about half an hour, then rolled off and did a flip! // Sams rad board thing. Hooray for drummers.

Joe had to look after this care in the community dude all day so he could be allowed to go off to Oz. Have fun cuddles!// FUCKIN METAL. (Who was this lot?? They did infact rule).

Ben came down from Skeg to visit the MOTHERLAND, then cranked this fuckin sick 5-0 on his first trip down the Dean. // One of the yankees did a BS Flip while I took a shite picture of it.

DOUBLE ACTION - AJ flaps one over while Jerome spins to win. // Dave did his frontside thing. NO FENCE GRABBING MIND.

Everyone was stoked on Franks BS boneless, none more than Frank himself who celebrated with some meat in a bap the same size as his head.

Surreal moment of the day - Jereme Rogers fully wiggered out skating the Deaner. Anorexic Christian Hip-Hop aside this Nollie heel bigspin was fuckin sick. No Sheckler mind.....

All the way to Cornwall...

2008-07-15T13:18:00.002Z

.....and not one pasty consumed :(

I did manage to drink a lot of beer tho. And go skate with Whip who is proper settled back into rural life. And stoked to have me drunk in his car.

Speaking of Susan, as she shalt now be known, she did us proud as we covered most of Cornwall in search of a wave but no luck. Still we had some rad coffee and cakes at Praa sands. Well Whip seamed to have jam and cream with a hint of scone.

Then we did some skating at Penzance and I made Whip do a crail just for old times sake. Aaah memories.

Then it was off to Tuckingmill where a rad little session ensued. There were a bunch of other fellas there killing the big bowl. Check the pics. I managed a carve grind in the deep end was so stoked I forgot I was riding a skateboard and promptly slammed. Nice one.

Oh and all I managed was a crappy tailblock pic. Next time I'm grabbing crail...

Check out Whips new surfingboard too, I think someone was sick on it before glassing..

Tings...

2008-07-08T11:46:00.002Z

...ah been gwan on.

Yeah lots of errr...stuff has been happening. So thats why theres been no updates for bit. Well that and I'm trying to save pics for a new top secret Zine production with Gwildorian. Keep yer peepers peeled for that. Ssssh.

I've also re-done my old Boblands site as some sort of rubbish gallery of all my rubbish pics. Yeah yeah photoblog AND gallery site, I know. Check it out tho - there'll be stuff you've seen and some you haven't...

Me and Dave also checked out a bunch of fine rockin bands last saturday - Bristols own Los Imbasils and straight outta LA (And back from the grave!) The Morlocks. In amongst the sambuca and ale haze I snapped a lot of pics but due to the aforementioned imbibement I also managed to set my camera to the lowest quality setting. Still I got a bunch of good snaps. I stuck a couple up below. Scope out the bands on the myspazzle and get rocking, the Morlocks kill it and will join you for a drink after. Good lads.

Los Imbasils "getting some" and The Morlocks bringing the house down.

Oh and we've been street skating in between the usual summer rain, I'm supposed to be filming but the vid cam has packed up. Heres a quickun from a recent mission tho - Jimmer nosesliding his sleeves off and stoking out local bike riders..

Theres more to Seattle than Starbucks...

2008-05-20T07:52:00.005Z

So as promised here are the rest of the snaps from my skate day in Seattle, along with some footage. Apologies for the spots on the lens, I swear I cleaned that thing on the way over...must be magical dirt or something!

I've managed to forget the Vegas skatepark pics aswell, but there are a few in with my holiday snaps HERE.

Seattle was a rad place to visit, and even better if you skate and can get out to these parks. "Spoilt for choice" is a pretty apt description of the number of parks up there, and if you include the fact the Oregon is right next door you are laughing. Hard. In a maniacal "HAHAHAHALOOKATTHEMPARKS" kinda way.

First stop of the day was Marginal Way - Seattles own DIY VT spot. It's sick and they are still building more, check the footage of the Thrasher party there to see the finished new trannys being killed. They were off limits when we turned up as the crete was curing, but we still got to have a blast around the first build section, with the super whippy wall,and on the wooden mini tucked away. Sick place.

After that and hooking up with the mighty Dan Hughes we were whisked off to Ballard bowl. This is the 2nd incarnation of this place, and it's BIG. The vert wall reminded me of the one at St George but built into the bowl. How Dan front slashed it I'll never know, peep the footage below for proof. Rad rad bowl, you get to go super fast round this thing! Actually I think I answered my own question there....

Before we hit the next spot we stopped to check out the progress of Lower Woodland, yet another amazing park being built in the Seattle area. Loads of stuff here - clover bowl, flow blow thing and a big well laid out street section. Might well have to come back just to check this one out! Next up was Crossroads. Another massive bowl with a scary big wall at one end, and a big ol cradle. Lots of lines here for sure. A load of OMA fellas turned up for a lunchtime session which made it a right laugh. Those guys have this place dialled, they skate this as their Weds night spot so think about that next time we're freezing our chuffs off up at Hengrove. Actually maybe best we don't eh...

And onto the penultimate park Duvall. I'd seen pics of this and wanted to check out the pool - it was gnarly, whippy tranny and this crazy granite/pebble coping which made a sick noise. The street course was well laid out for a small area and had loads of features, especially the rocks built into it. Tons of fun.

Last up was Mukilteo. This was a YMCA run park, really well built and had lots of flow, oh and another massive big bowl. It's a full pad job as I found out after being told off by a 14 year old for not wearing elbow pads. I took a gert big slam on me rear end here so maybe the warning was needed? Made sitting down on the ferry on the way home a lot of fun I can tell you. Well nothing a few(lot of) beers didn't cure.

I shot a bit of vid film over the day and thats below, I missed a few rad things like John's carve grind in the Crossroads cradle (sorry!) but I think I got a few good things.

A big thanks to Dan, Tony and the rest of the OMA crew up there for taking a day off work to show me along the "sights"! I had an amazingly fun day, even my first burritto wasn't too bad ;)

Oh and if you like good Rock and Roll with a metal tinge then check out The Neon Nights who are on Tonys record label. I've been listening to that CD non-stop since I got back....

Jetsetting...

2008-05-14T08:24:00.002Z

I've been too busy flying around the US to get any posts on here.

Well sort of.

Meself and the Peek have just returned from an amazing 2 week trip out to Vegas and Seattle. There'll be a load of stuff going up over the next week or so, including pics from my skateday out with the Seattle OMA locals. Nice lads they were n'all ;) The legend that is Dan Hughes was snapping away all day so for now scope out the pics from his perspective here. Cheers all for a sick day out!

I'll be back with skate stuff and touristy style snaps shortly, but here's a peach of a ditch we found just off the side of the road in Boulder City that ran for miles. Thats Lake Mead in the background, and if I'm going to retire anywhere it'll probably be here with a nice cruisy longboard.

2nd Home...

2008-03-18T09:33:00.005Z

I'm not talking about a little cottage tucked away in West Wales either - we hit up The Ripped again this weekend due to the Liverpool Artfag bowl being run by artfags and henceforthwith being shut still. Bummer.

Still The Ripped wasn't a bad second choice, infact it was a killer session. Bristle was in the house thanks to driver extrodinaire Pigdog, Gnarly Neil and Wes who let me and Habgood squeeze in for the ride. And we got to introduce them to Car-e-oke n'all...fun. Scott and Johnners also headed up from London and stopped to pick up the sweatiest man in the UK - Joxa. To be fair he did smash it so the sweat was all earned. Oh and it was a bit of a birthday skate for me and I got the bestest t-shirt from Johnners, I'll try and get pics of it - cheers tho Iggy. Scott also distributed his brand new fancy ass zine - Lizard in a Labcoat It's sick so if you see Becker out and about peddling furiously then stop him and nab one.

Right here be dem pics.

Should I have saved this for the Tash?Johnners gittin oop dere//Sweatsweatsweat Front Piv//Ronny Calow blunt on whippy thing, I'll have some Hewitts sample size if yer reading Aiden ;)

YES CAPTAIN!Mighty Pigdog crail PUFF IT!//Sweatysweatsweater 5-0 from way way back there//Joe was so stoked on this he thought he was a boxer - "Undefeated!!"

And as it was me Birthday skate we had to do some birthday drinking so we got dropped off at The Bell where drink was drank and stupid glasses were worn. God bless Poulet, every pic of him is pure comedy gold.

Mini-mission

2008-02-27T13:04:00.003Z

Keeping in line with recent weekends Habgood, Poulet and meself headed off for a bit of London action. Nothing too mental this time just a wee skate with Whip and the boys down there. Mudchute and Kennington were where we ended up and yet again it was another top laugh with some serious skateboarding thrown in. Oh and some rad grub too, fujiyamas in Brixton is a sick place to be. Cue the gay "possee" shot.

Oh and I got a camera to me head via joe's board haha. Check out Johnser's blog for some lo-fi footage of stunts n things.

Pivot frenzy at Mudchute::Poulet BS flips::More pivot hell

Whip did it frontside::Bo-ho-honeless::After he nearly claimed me camera and eye Joe did this back disaster on an appropriatly doidgy bit of wood.

Oh and if you know how to make Poulet stop eating like this please let us know. Cheerzen.

We are all old men.

2008-02-12T15:22:00.000Z

Saturday saw another trip to the east midlands for another Boardroom jam, this time I convinced a load of not MAS people, including BarryMongChops, to come along for a rip up.

I'll let the pics do most of the talking but shit went down bigtime. No pic of Habgood's back disaster on the vert wall, or him and Joxa hitting up the sub box, or Johnners just generally styling it about. Proper funny tho, and I got to smack Joxa in the mouth afterwads. Wish I'd gone on and partyed now.

Frocker Grip art :: MongChops roll in and sweaty sweaty front grind on the vert wall.

Josef Stinkbug bowl transfer :: Whip wallride thing out of the piller into ramp :: Mongchops monging front rock

Frockers cardiel inspired lipslide round t'corner :: Mongchops beats himself up to tail :: Habgood ollie out to wallride to scare Whip.

Two proper moments of madness - Habgood out the bowl, up the wood, wallride and Joxa piv fakie on the extension. Sickness.

Dust em off..

2008-01-18T12:36:00.000Z

I recently came across an old CD with a bunch of my old web shyte on it, including a load of old QT films I put together..

So to keep yer all happy I'll be posting them up on a regular basis. I'll even try and get them onto Mpora so Dave can watch em too..

So here's the first one from way back, one of the first edits I think I ever did that included me putting some thought into it....Laaaydeeez and generalbeans I gives you the Pooo's Bruvvas..

Oh and in more shocking news Whip is now mobile. In a popemobile. Check his BLOG and laugh for hours like what I did.

Gotta love the monkey.

Just to celebrate some more here's some pics from a recent trip to London and a mornings skate with Whippard. And yes that is the infamous crail grind he's a grabbing there.....still not a good shot of it tho!

Well I is back from the land of the free, home of the brave, country of the fat, continent of the incompetent! And it was faarkin awesome.

The holiday was sick, I'd recommend San Diego to anyone. Sunny all year round (well most of it!) and plenty of stuff to do and see. If you wanna see some of my tourist snaps check here. Peek also took a bunch too.

Peek was also lovely enough to grant me a days skate trip so I wasn't going to pass that up! I hooked up with a SD local Riik (Or Satyriikcon on the OMA forum) who is, as they say down that way, "Totally awesome". Big thanks to this man who not only drove me around all day but also bought me a pint, how can you beat that?!! Cheers manwithnonickname ;)

So skating - Riik had a plan of attack so after coffee and Bagles we jumped in his wobbly Honda and headed for Carlsbad. This is a sick little park, some wierd trannys and kinks here and there, but as a "first spot of the day" spot you couldn't fault it. Fun times. It also had a resident tweaker who we think was called "Spidey", he told us he'd given up the drugs but I wasn't convinced. Still any dude who rocks a full length mac, ski goggles (with tags still on) and one glove whilst spouting random lyrics will always make for a fun time!

After C-baaaad Riik had a small surprise for me - a stop off at Matt Hensley's (Me and GinnerDave's mate) new bar. Sick place, good beer (even at 11am) and loads to check out - Like the boards on the roof Riik liked, and..er..other things....

This pitstop was followed by a jaunt down the coast highway, beaches and surf for miles! Then a quick stop at McGills skateshop, rad shop tho he wasn't there so I couldn't ask him Bones Brigade questions like what undercrackers Tony wears and did Cab ever give him the nod.

We moved on back to SD and onto Washington St. I'd been dreaming of this place for ages and FUCK ME SIDEWAYS is it gnarly. Pants shittingly gnarly. When everyone says that anything done here is sick they ain't lying. Serious, serious business. Just check the pics, especially the fucked up parking block coping. The locals didn't mind tho, so while I sucked pumping around the bottom they tore it up. I even saw Mumford there. Bonus. We hit here for a little while then hunger struck so we popped to an "English Pub" for lunch. All the way to California to eat curry sauce and chips and have a pint of Bass. Safe as fuck.

Final stop was Memorial skatepark, this place was sick - super smooth, good coping, fun trannys and the vibe was a bit more mellow here, hell people even talked to me and they weren't on crack like Spidey! I skated too much and didn't get any shots of the place but Riik got a few "action" snaps on his cam so cheers for that. Had a rad skate here despite this being the only place I had to wear a helmet, the locals were sound so I gave em a few copies of the 'Tash to say thanks. The day was done then so I illegally drank my beer from a coffee cup as Riik took me home to Pacific Beach.

As for Pacific Beach - well that place is rad, lots of bums loitering but they ain't no trouble. There seems to be surf everyday and the beach is so long it don't really get too crowded. On the morning we went to Seaworld it was going off so I tried my hand at some surf pics, scope em below.

And that was that. SD as I've said is sick. Visit, skate, eat and drink. I'm already planning next years visit! A big cheers and beers to Riik for being super nice and lsitening to me waffling on all day, farkin top man.

EXTRA BONUS LOAD-A-POOOP!

I managed to get a little bit of footage before me camera battery ran out, and some on my digital cam (But no sound), so you can see me sucking at Washington St in it's full glory below. Awesome.

Not another one..

2007-11-22T13:18:00.000Z

Blogs is coming in like buses now. Gwildore the Jazz Cat and Professional "Gay Twin" has got one n'all, must be a married thing? Still it's a good excuse to stick up this pic I've been sitting on. Check the ginger emo's blog HERE.

On another note - in 2 days time I'll be off HERE to surf HERE and skate HERE. F'Ckin.N Sto.Ked.

Expect footage/waffle/pictorial overload on my return. Innabit!

Seems like little ol Bob has been in demand this week! I've found meself popping up on 2 sick websites. Firstly Skate and Annoy dot com made my knackered harris overhead carve Shot of the week, then Lowcard stuck my balaclaved mug on their Hometown Heroes page.

The Kult of Special Bob is spreading worldwide.

We also went up to the Boardroom in Leicester for a MAS jam thing, it was a riot. Ginner Dave Twin and Tim turned up about 9ish after going via Stoke! That really takes some doing....Anyways Muttley shot some dad cam footage - check it HERE.

It's all been getting a little bit "evil" in the ol Scumtash world recently. Last friday saw the The Deaner's Halloween party totally and absolutely GO OFF. Massive props to Bear for getting this thing kick started, and everyone who came along, dressed up, helped out and chucked pumpkins about. Beast of a night. Peep some of my pics on the sidewalk forum HERE.

So we went to Kings Park t'other weekend and some tweaker turned up with a loada posh camera gear. "I used to skate, can I take your pic?" Errrm...Wayne had a quiet word bout "reprezentin tings" correctly and we did some stunts.

Got a bit lame after a while and the dude started to take shots of us carving a corner, never one to miss an opportunity I hitched me kegs down a little a did a sweet carve over his head for the close up Harris shot. This one's a keeper mate...

Oh and I did a slasher too. How "Dad slash" is thissun? Stoked tho. Sorry for riding yer plank Joe. It's too much fun that thing.....

And keeping up the Blog on a Blog posts - Rickeeees been blogging hard recently as he's got himself a posh new snapper. Check out the sequences. Good shizzle Cuddles.

Named by JimmyJimster, filmed by just about everyone, put together by meself.

I like to think of it as a "Post abstract excursion into the fallow years that surround skateboarders in their mid twenties". Or just a bunch of dicks on wheels fuelled by beer and the need to have a laugh.

In running order - The Steves (Mystery and Little Stevie Ritalin aka Joxa), Ginger Jimmy Jimbob McShorts, DLH nob'eds, Melon n Smell (EDGEEDGEEDGE), a whole bunch o'tweakers, some vert stuff, Speccy Handjob inna skeleton suit, Whippitio El Pissingobbio, two twats on wheels aka "The fast forward this bit" (Poulet and me then), Ginger Davey Dave McPlopplop, The End.

Me n Corpsey built us a 1/4 pipe. S'rad, wieghs a ton, but it's fuckin rad. Pool coping too. Gnar gnar. It's already annoyed the nosey old prick down the street and we've only skate dit twice. Rad rad rad.

2007-06-25T11:54:00.000Z

Whilst over in the Essex/Hertford area this weekend picking up Kittens (I would post pics cos I know you all love the little fluffy things.) I got the chance to pop along to the brand new Dreamland park in Saffron Walden.

It looked like it would be soaking wet there and I'd only get pics but I actually managed to get a good roll around there for a bit before the rain came back. It's all big and gnarly, but so so skateable and smooth. It's a step up from the usual UK crete finishing, please take note UK park builders - this is how you do it. Also, if you are reading this, cos of course all UK park builders love The 'Tash, then DO THE FUCKIN LANDSCAPING BEFORE THE PARK. Kids on bikes + Mud = a pain in the arse and mucky griptape. Wayne wouldn't approve.

Heres the pics for yer, spaff time.

Blast from the past

2007-06-12T12:15:00.000Z

Bored at work and having a rummage through me photobucket account I cam across this ol beaut from my days in Plymouth. This musta been taken about 1999, down the Civic on the perfect block. Note the angle iron. Heaven.

Whats also shocking is how skinny I was, how much hair I had and the fact I could do backside grinds on blocks.

That block is fucked now mind.

So Poulet is off again for another 4 month jaunt to exotic climes. This time it's New Zealand for some snow brucing, cold water surfing and probably breaking himself on the crete parks there.

We had a bit of a farewell skoot for him last weekend, and in true Poulet fashion he got hammered the night before then disapeared back to bed before everyone arrived for a roll! Brilliant.

Still it was a larf and I got a few "radical" snaps.

Have it CrackRock! Mind them sheep mind!

Sunday saw a roadtrip up to Worcester and a secret wooden mini for me, The Son of the Malago and The Son of The Son of the Malago. It were rad. We hooked up with Hoodie, had a schralp in the sweltering heat, ripped up a nipple then retired to this wooden wonder.

Sunny sunday afternoons are meant to spent on ramps like this.

Me and Dave and the One Legged Stress Chicken hit the mean streets again. Sunny days, big cans of beer and a smile on our faces. Thats what you want in a session. We even bit the bullet and had a look at Bemmo's new "SkatePlaza". If you thought Milton Keynes was gay you ain't seen nothing yet ;) Still it should keep the block tweakers away from the Deaner with any luck.

We even discovered Poulet might have an eye for the camera, check out me snaps taken by El Pollo Loco!

Surely not.

Sorry been slack. Will have a whole heapa pics for you soon, but for now enjoy Turkey and his amazing inflatable trousers hucking themselves down a mighty Brizza Dub set. YO!

Up the Chute!

2006-12-14T20:43:00.000Z

Yep we had another London trip the other weekend, mainly to check out the excellent Crossfire jam but also to have a wee skate while we could. We hit up the mighty Mudchute again for a fair few hours and saw Whip, which was a right giggle. Then we popped into MW2 for a few kickturns before hitting up the jam itself.

We arrived midway through the mini ramp carnage which was off it, missed the wallride comp cos we were being hardcore and skating the mini (WEST WILTSHIRE WHHHUT!) and apparantly missed Habgood ragging it up the side of the wall and back in with his meaty black sausage toe - get on geggsy. The handrail and the new Whale obstacle saw some crazy shheeeiiit n'all then we blagged a whole loada crap before buggering off home avec le chilrenknackered.

Cheers to the Mutt for being chauffer and some excellent dub cuts, Wayner for being Corpsey, Habgood for the blag (pint for you) and mostly Zac and the Crossfire peeps for putting on a raddun. Next year beckons....

The land of wee and walking sticks.

2006-11-06T20:34:00.000Z

To celebrate Wayne-urs upcoming 75th birthday we took a day trip to the land of old fogeys - Bournemouth - to sample it's two finest new crete creations. After a few scenic route stops on the way down we headed for the new Kings Park errr..park. We were hoping to get it empty but found a bunch of longboarding, 70's board riding surf brahs. Lords of Dogturd has a lot to answer for. We hooked up with Alex and his 8 wheeler which has to be the wierdest thing I've ever stepped on and got down to some ripping.

After the park filled up we headed up to Verwood for some afternoon sweet crete fun. Pete D and fam were waiting for us, as was a rammed carpark and mutant rabbit. Spex killed the bowl with all sorts, while Reg just seemed like he wanted to kill me with his skateboard. DADSLASH!

We had a good few hours here then retired tired to a pub in "quaint" Fordingbridge (It's near Cripplestyle and Sandy Balls holiday camp! Yes, funny town names galore!) for a swift half and a bro-down talk about the days skate.

It were a fackin raddun so cheers to all for making it!

2006-11-01T20:46:00.000Z

Winters on it's way so we've been back hiding indoors from the wet. Not the cold though, heated skateparks - pah. We've had a few trips to Newport recently, the snaps below are from the last trip. Gotta love the Grimport - dank nasty and never been changed since it opened! This was Spex's first visit and altho he's as blind as a bat in the darkness he still managed to kill it.

I had a brief visit to London aswell and caught the last of summer at the new Mudchute park. This place is small, fun and quirky and prossibly the best cure for a hangover! Whip rocked it out Borat to fakie on the wall which was sick considering that things whippy as a 99 with a flake, and he was hungover to hell and back!

FUCK YEAH!!

2006-10-10T17:42:00.000Z

We're back..ack...ack.......

Didjer miss me? I missed you...aawwwww...

*cough* anyhoos, I'm now firmly ensconced in Trowbridge, it's lovely - very "Countryside". Trees and shit y'know.

Bet never mind that, we went to Aber-"Dabber"-Dare last weekend. It's raad, well the bowls are, I'm sure the rest would be a giggle if it weren't for the hordes of pointless kids on mountain bikes.....I'm not gonna get wound up so I'll just hit yer with the pics innit...

Movin..

2006-09-07T22:04:00.000Z

Yup I'm orf. To the wilds of Wiltshire. The Badlands. Well bad inna "not the Deaner" sorta way...*sniff*. So gonna be rad tho. Even if Wyane knows where I live. Brace yerselfs for the Skate Shack (WITH Blender poster..).

Hehehe.

SooOooOo I've had a few beers and some brandy, making what'll be me last post for while as t'internet will be gone in the move. Put away in some box somewhere with me collection of molluscs and llama jumpers I imagine. So to keep yer going here's a bunch of snaps from Joxas visit a week or so ago. He killed it and if you watch the Bolton Jam footage he's still fookin killing it. We had a blast tho, Zooport minis, Deaner sickness and street annahilation. Fuckin ruling weekend. He'll be in Cov Uni soon so punch him in the arm if you see him ;) Vicar gots it.

"Have that"

Sorry...

2006-09-01T10:50:00.000Z

...for the complete lack of updates. I am a lazy bastid and I know it.

To be honest things have been pretty hectic recently as I am moving house, getting shit at work and just skating too damn much (Is that possible? Me legs seem to think it is....)

I do have a stack of pictures to go up from Blockless Combat to Joxas recent visit to Bristol so please just bare with me and I'll sort something out as soon as I can.

But for now, have this pic of the JazzCat at Chepstow flippin right out..

Have you seen him?

2006-08-16T08:19:00.000Z

I love skate trips me, a day out with your mates shouting and skating what could be better! Last Friday saw a Jam organised by Pete G at Leicester lovely Boardroom, attendance was mandatory it was just a question of who was driving and where were we skating first. Turns out Gazz needed to go Nottingham for a spot of dogging so that was the driving sorted, as for the skating well we ended up having a wee roll on Gazza's ramp (Tricks included an axle stall swandive by Wayne!), then off to Botley Bowl (Proper good, I'm going back) and finally Pete G took myself and Wayne to another "middle of nowhere" mini ramp which was dubbed the Sex Ramp (I don't know why so don't ask!).

The Jam itself was a good laugh, not too busy but enought people to have a giggle. The bowl was schralped and Gazz's mate Nick pulled off a gnarly roll-in to headbounce. Luckily he's as tough as bus load of Polish Skinheads so he shrugged it off easy enough.

Top night, apologies for the darkness of pics again (I'm getting an extra flash so that should cure it). Cheers Pete and Boardroom owner fella (Top lad!). October is the next date for a jam up there, pencil it in NOW!

We've still got it....

2006-08-07T18:53:00.000Z

Street skating that is, oh yes. No flippy shit for us, just booze, shit spots that are great and a whole heap of fun. I don't know why we don't do it more often - probably lazyness and the magic magnetic pull of the Deaner. It's good to escape!

Monday Photo Number 1

2006-07-31T21:02:00.000Z

Just to brighten up everyones week from the start I thought it'd be a nice little idea to post up a pic on a monday, mainly cos I got loads lying around ;) But then I thoguht what if you lot have some pics?

For now tho enjoy this gnarly slasher from Cuban Phil, deep end of Yate. Sick.

Kreeeeechurrr.

2006-07-24T20:49:00.000Z

Old news? Bah who cares. Those of you with one ear to the grapevine will have known about the Creature team's flying visit to the UK. One "official" demo in Blackpool and a load of other stuff hit up along the way. Well we were lucky enough (thanks to them nice boyos at Shiners, bless em) to hook up with the team at the warehouse one night, which was spent mainly skip diving for old wheels, then at Chepstow bowls the next. In typical Yankeedoodah style they didn't rock up until the house lights went off. Perfect timing or maybe they really are the undead?. All good tho as myself, Wayne, some of the Newport Crue and assorted Bristol stragglers had a rad ol session while waiting for em. There was even an appearence from Matt Davies for those of you who know (Or care!).

As for the Yanks, well they ripped it (Alex Horn in particular!), but it was Stu Graham and Saul Evans who were really killing it. Ta to Jerome for letting me in on the secret of poaching the proper photographers flash so I could get that sick pic of Saul. If it crops up in a big mag remember you saw it here first ;)

Sweet Home Shamabama

2006-07-17T09:59:00.000Z

Gah. Overdoing it is fun. Especially in the sunshine having a laugh. We spent our saturday back at two of Wiltshires finest village/town fairs (Fayres? Ah whatver). Oh yes - we know how to party.

Trowbridge "Beach party" was first, lot of people in a field with some sand. Badass. Luckily there was something to skate there, well sorta. It was a bit sketchy to say the least. Still we had fun, the food was amazing - Poulet's curried mutton and my morrocan meatballs were both pretty sweet.

After this we headed off to Melksham who were having a bigger party, very big infact. We got stuck on the main street during the procession on the way to the skatepark. Lots of people not wanting to be there, some pretty iffy costumes (!) and a few orange aliens. Small towns eh.

The skate we had was rad, there was a small music tent next to the mini ramp so we got to rip it up to the sounds of some local Emo/Metal band. Full session "in effect". About 8ish we all went to see the Mighty Muttley play a fine pub rock gig of many wonderful covers. Some people weren't too impressed, others were hoping Slayer were going to turn up. We's liking Sweet Home Shama-bama and Rockin in the Freeworld. Rockstar dad. Literally - we were left with the little monkey Ben while he went bananas - totally Haribo free aswell! It was hilarious up until the beer started getting knocked over, which was still pretty funny in itself.

A late night mini ramp session started up again then, Poulet was loving it - lambrini, Drum n Bass and a fun ramp. Rave Scene inna Zanzibars. We skated till darkness and moseyed home absolutely knackered, the crew was TIGHT YO, cheers to everyone for always being up for having a laugh, stupid shit like this is what makes great days better!

Fuck that was a bit soppy wasn't it?

2006-07-13T21:17:00.000Z

Checked out a new park t'other night in the wilds of Wiltshire in a lovely little place called Corsham. "Well fuckin posh" according to Poulet who is allowed to use that sort of language now he's been in The Sun.

The park itself was a bit wierd, crete at least, with flatbanks of DOOM. Still quite a giggle really, worth a look if you are in the area but really not worth the reported £90,000 spent on it. Blakedown must be minted charging that, they might get it right soon too if we all keep our grubby fingers crossed.

We did some stunts, checked out Jackos rad homemade tee, made up some new tricks (Dilton Sliiiiide) and larfed at the clueless Local Rag Photographer (Pure brilliance, all you expected - pics of kickturns and not a clue what was going on. Comedy gold without trying. Watch out for Sean Goff appearing in the Bath Chronicle soon!)

I even finally landed a layback. Oh and a Pendulum. Stoked :)

2006-07-10T19:51:00.000Z

Yeaaaaaaaaah brooooooooo. *cough* ah..yeah....got back in the sea last weekend, was rad good fun. A friday eve blast down to Croyde with Mr Hoodie (and his bargain tent!), some pints, a hilly picturesque campsite and a few hours sleep and we were up for a dawn session at Putsborough. Felt so good to get in the water and get a few waves, plus I didn't suck as bad as I thought I did!

A few hours kip in the Bent City approved tent afterwards set us up for a trip into Braunton where we found the bowl still full of sand. Now get this - the local council let the locals build this bowl then decide not to insure it and put big bags of sand in to stop anyone skating it?!?!?! How does that work? Braunton Council you are fucking retarded. We discussed this in full length in JSurf skate shop, visit here if you can - they carry a full range of sick Skull Skates stuff, and also a big rack of 70's shapes that would make Wayne-ur cream his little frilly knicks....

A pasty later we're heading back for the second surf of the day, bit bigger so our arms really feel it this time. Still good fun and Hoodie didn't manage to smack his face off his board this time! We stopped by South Molton skatepark on the way back but were too knackered to fully have it, still worth a visit if yer passing (It's by the Somerfield if yer wondering...took us a while!).

Cheers to Terry Butcher for driving, hope my inane babble didn't bore yer.

Oh skatepics? Oh alright then - here's a chicken in a silly hat doing some trick or other. (Yabba yabba Hengrove what?!?!?!)

FAAAACKIN METAAAALLL!

Outside my house last night. Spooky.

Santa Booze "on tour"

2006-06-26T20:25:00.000Z

No, not the big hairy fella with the presents and reindeers. The full pro Santa Cruz skate team have been visiting our isles for the last week or so doing what they do, except at the Deaner where they mostly did nothing. Still me and Arthur had a rad day out down there getting pished and eating ice cream. Skateboarding eh, jumpers for goalposts n'that.

Me n Reg and the nippers managed to hook up with them a few days later in my hometown of Porthcawl of all places. Seems that PADS skatepark has had a new mini installed and what a beaut it is. Winters are going to be alright again. The whole team, and surf team were staying in town and from what I gathered had an almighty party the previous night so most of them weren't really on it, still we got to see Moul blast a few tricks and I finally got to see the Greg Nowick Mini-Ramp Monster unleashed in the flesh, he even managed to give Crazy Phil a fright. Lots of people came and lurked, Newport was in the house and a contingent of Shiner's finest also made it up. It was good to hook up with the Porthy "kids" (not kids any more tho!) and some old mates too. We also managed to stop by Chepstow on the way home.

Happy days.

Mean streets

2006-06-21T18:20:00.000Z

Another year rolls around and I find myself back in London for the Whippers birthday, and yet again it was a right laugh. Apart from the nightbus struggle. Whips moved to some void between London proper and "The place of no transport". He's got a nice place tho. And I had fun no matter how grumpy I seemed at 4.30am lost on the streets of Norwood!

Cheers Whipper, t'was ace and the sight of you sans shirt getting in there with the sweaty punks brought a tear of joy to my eye.

As for schralpage we hit up some crazy metal Croydon park on the friday ON THE MUTHERFLUCKIN TRAM YO. Oh the Wonder of Wandall park with it's abusive rock throwing children. Saturday was rad as we went to Kennington which was a newey for me, and apart from the big ol puddle it was siiiick, get in there Zissou. "Hey Surferboy I take champagne". And there was even a BBQ with proper sausages, high living indeed. Stockwell was next and yeah it's startin to crumble already, and it does seem slower but it's still one of the bestest. Then we all toddled off to watch the Ghurkals have it in the Grosvener before I copped out early to avoid the nightbus hell! Hehehe...

I took some pics too, click thumbnail for bigger (And pray it works!)
