thanks guys! where to download beside tpb? i think there was a site for extremesport-torrents but i dont remember..

If possible, buy the videos instead of downloading. Otherwise chances of getting more and better videos in the future will probably be smaller.

I'd say Blind's Video Days, Fully Flared, Eastern Exposure 3 and most importantly, In Search Of The Miraculous and The Strongest Of The Strange by Pontus Alv, that man is a pure genious!

Here´s a fun thing, I got the city to build a miniramp in a park, middle of town, 190 steps (yeah i counted) from my work, 14meter wide, costs abut 40.000£, and I got them to let me design the whole thing. I started the project about a month ago, and the ramp is currently being build. Gonna post a pic later today, thing´s massive!

Anyone know of any decent spots around Camden area? Just looking for somewhere reasonably bust-free and private, just got back on a board after >7 years not skating - just kerbs, small stair set and such..?

go cantellowes in the morning (think the guy comes to open it at 10) gets busy after midday. 3 amigos store is just a few metres down the road too which is a pretty good shop. other than that, there's not much that comes to mind, other than those little knee high rails outside the carpet shop.

Alien Workshop x Keith Haring coming soon, much better than the Warhol pish IMO.

Liked the Warhol ones better, these are too "alike" in my opinion. even though the ones with the pyramid and the rain dance look really nice

Got back on my board for the first time yesterday since Christmas, just like riding a bike...Fakie full cab flip first go, really missed the satisfaction in a doing a long krook grind. Copped this Palace board last week, 8.25, the concave is great as it's neither to flat or too wavy.

id recommend you go to cantelowes after it shuts, I head there about 12 or 1, and you have the whole park to yourself, until the asshole locals complain and the police come, but it doesn't always happen, especially if you leave the street section mainly untouched
