SORE skateboards


SORE dropped a new video trailer with some pretty interesting animation and skating (
Cul-De-Sac). The video is quite artsy but extremely well edited and the music chosen flows particularly well with the over all style of skating and videography.





This is to headline there new products coming out involving 2 graphics on 2 shapes, pool (8.25) and pop (8.06- 8.38).
buy a deck and you not only get free grip but free postage and a free Reprobates DVD. defiantly worth it for £42!
Fos has an interview in this months Sidewalk which is worth checking out after watching his part.

Supreme Bitch


You've probably already heard about Supreme suing Barbara Kruger (if not go to the link to her website) something that has rightly pissed off the artist. 


The brand, although doing many collaborations with such artists as Damien Hirst and the Chapman Brothers, is powered by greed. 




What I have taken in is the fact that Supreme identifies its self as a skateboarding brand yet by going ahead with suing reflects that Supreme just don't get the joke, take them selfs too seriously. The teeshirt wouldn't exist if Supreme didn't have a following so theres not really a point of grabbing more money seen as though the company is loaded anyway.

"the use of the design has always been to make fun of the misogynistic vibe of Supreme"  

"Bottom line is this: I don't think Supreme should be able to squash free speech or my right to utilize parody in my design aesthetic."


People will still buy Supreme clothing- Lady Gaga and Rihanna pulling out a tampon will always sell. 
I guess the moral of the story is- if your going to own a company that prints tits for a living expect people to rebel against it.

Falus 12- Review


Definitely Hyped on this! 
8/10


ONLINE PREMIERE: August 15th, 2013online for 24 hours."‘The Falus 12 Film’ is a bromantic action packed independent skateboard film from the Netherlands, including 98% street failure/average skateboarding. The company was started about 10 years ago as a joke, with the slogan “failure for life” but since then it has ironically grown into the longest lasting skateboard company in Holland."- jenkem 



Its definatly worth buying if you didnt get chance to watch it on the Jenkem website.

Ons Birk- Nose Bonk 270

Koen- Boneless

This video is pretty funny and very weird. Don't expect amazing, next level skateboarding  because thats not what its about. It is , however, really fun to watch and that is what its about.
Its reminiscent of Baker 3 , Fidlar videos  and  'A Golden Egg' 2012  
If you did miss it then here is 'FALUS PROMOPROMOPROMO TURBO'  2012
