December 11th, 2009 / No Comments » / by Jonathan Young
Getting a bit of the Alzheimer in my older days – I almost forgot to post Crossfire’s annual X-Mas Jam which is taking place tomorrow, December 12th 2009 at the Bay 66 Skatepark in London, England.
Skating gets started at 12pm and goes on until 6pm with an unsponsored best trick competition and pro skater contests taking place in this time. Later on after what promises to be a great session the party goes on at The Metropolitan later on. I’m not going to waste my time copying and pasting the names of all ofthe top notch skaters who will be showing up, head over to the Caught in the Crossfire website to read all about it. Oh yeah, it costs 10 or 12 pounds to skate! Want to wet your appetite? Then check out some of the action from last year’s event!

And what a way to get your Sunday started – check out 20 year-old Sean Smith out of Milton Keynes, UK in his video part from the recently released Motive Skateboards full length video “Dimensions” (which was available along with issue 157 of Sidewalk Skateboard Magazine by the way…). Just check out how he smacks the board down to land every trick – he really knows what he is doing. Good clean style with an attitude and a bunch of sponsors who know what they got (DC SHOES,SILVER TRUCKS,OBJECT HARDWARE,EDYAONER BEARINGS,TRAVEL WHEELS,ZOO YORK CLOTHING,SKULL CANDY,ARKOLOGY.CO.UK). Watch it and then get out and learn something new…

May 25th, 2009 / No Comments » / by Jonathan Young
The Etnies Recognition Tour made a stop at The Works skatepark in Leeds, UK yesterday May 24th with Jose Rojo, Tuuka, Davis Torgersen, Sean Malto, Ryan Sheckler and several others like Julien Furones (yeaaah!). Watch some of the flipping, grinding, switching action and sorry for all of those Sheckler haters – the guy has the tricks in his pocket and quite a few left over to kick some ass on his board. Whatever he does may not meet approval, but to be honest, who cares? Bring it on…
