This Actually Happened

Just wait for the footage...

The Fun Run

Footage coming soon...

I Spy

The video is coming along nicely, and some more footage was had this weekend on our little early bird adventure to Shrewsbury. i don't think i've been out skateboarding that early in years, but it was rad. No time for pre skate vids though, if I did have, I would have watched this...Enjoy

Not Purple Rain

Since the weekend was again partially rained off, and since Alex can't ever be bothered to film three tricks, Three from the Weekend has taken yet another week off...have this instead, ironically filmed by Alex, who will get three tricks on film soon (he's getting as bad as me). Enjoy.

WTF

In light of my recent battle with the Gods of Video Uploads, I came across this picture taken whilst on our recent LDN adventure. I think it just about sums up how i feel...

Rainman

Apologies for the lack of updates, but it just seems to rain all the time lately. Something will be up soon, I promise. I've got some skate stuff to sell/give away, so I'll try and find a novel way of flogging things

Post Error

I figured out what was causing all the delays with uploading footage, i think the simplest way of explaining it is just by saying my internet providers are shit. So i'm changing, but in the meantime I'll get stuff up as soon as possible. Sorry all.

Oi Blud, let me buy your skateboard

This weekend saw abit of a London trip with a few friends from the Village Idiots, plus Dan O'Neill and Jamie Walker, who both have parts on the upcoming vid, myself and Matt Kinsella. Much skateboarding was to be had, along with equal amounts of tube journeys and shit loads of pizza. I'm currently putting together a little edit of the weekend's adventures, but in the meantime, have some assorted camera phone photos, and a three from the Weekend from Dan O'Neill.



Above : Dan looking like a Route One model. Below : some words of wisdom from Jambo's house, and while I'm at it, thanks guys for the bed and the phone number of possibly the world's (Bromley's) best pizza place.


There's much more to come, but for now be content with Dan's Three from the Weekend, even though they were filmed on a Friday. Enjoy. The Edit will be here shortly, just having a technological nightmare.

Friends and Family

I don't know who bothers checking out the Friends and Family links, but there's some seriously good stuff on there. New today is Chris Benbow's night photography page; if he gets himself out soon there will be a Three from the Weekend to follow along with a part in the upcoming and as yet unnamed video. Clicky Clicky.

Three from the Weekend #2

This is the second instalment of Three from the Weekend starring none other than myself, and since i'm shameless and have never got more than two bits of a footage in a day ever, here's my Two from the Weekend, plus a small dog. Sorry. I did actually film like 6 different things this weekend aswell, but rules are rules, one spot only.

Totally Urban Cameraphone Edit

Totally urban camera phone edit of Grose loving car park skateboarding like only a true 90s carpark skater could. Cheers Barney for the edit.

Messin abart wi thee feet

Sheffield Edit up later

Three from the Weekend

Right, this is hopefully going to be a weekly event. Every Sunday night from now on i'll post a little clip called Three from the Weekend; three tricks, one person, one spot. These are all offcuts from the video, although i probably will end up using a fair few of them. Mike Bickley's first...

Weak End

Well this weekend didn't live up to expectations; the planned filming mission to Derby didn't happen due to the standard British weather and instead of what I hoped would be alot of footage to edit this morning instead of working, I'm sat at work reminiscing about getting battered at a game of SKATE by a couple of 14 year olds and their backside 180 wizardry, and going to a shit classic car show and getting shit off some Lambretta boys for having a Vespa.


Oh well. Whizzplanking by me, photo by Fran. Post a comment if you're up for a filming mission next weekend, I'll sort out something. Until then, check out the Village Idiots blog for a little cameraphone edit. Or go here for something a little more simian.

Get Well Soon Grose

As you may or may not be aware, Local Pirate/Sidewalk Lurker Grose uttered the immortal words, "just one more try" the other day, and ended up with all sorts of metal in his wrist. Disaster Revert to Broken Bones! Get Well Soon!

P.S Mosby has just reminded me this is the second time I've laughed off a broken wrist.

Little bit of a joke edit just to get things rolling, a few offcuts from the video. Enjoy. Link here if it doesn't embed.

First Post

Right then, where to begin ?!

This blog has come about as the result of a 30 second MSN conversation with Alex Lawley about my "currently in progress" video and his "soon to be started" video. Pretty much its gonna give the pair of us something to do, and hopefully we'll be able to put out some little offcuts and edits of both videos, along with assorted other arty rubbish.

Whatever, it's going to be well urban. Probably.
