Or you could just have some cheapo Chinese tat and a can of spray paint for a fraction of the price.

That’s the corner I nearly got run over by the actor who plays Dev alahan in Corrie. He looked pissed.

Those risers look like aluminium di bond sheet material

It’s def a Dibond or substitute material, decent quality too as the ali skin is thick. But how do you know they’re meant to be risers?

You can see the holes in the original photo and they are the same length as the baseplate

OOOH, I didn’t even see that pic, I had no idea what Blinks was trying to show with that pic anyway haha. Jesus, that’s the worst material for risers ever, no friction at all, you’re going to have oval holes in your board and trucks in no time. Clueless bells!

I remember years ago when my mum worked at the McVities factory she brought some conveyor webbing home which I cut up as risers and ollie patches. My shoes were well progressive looking, would have looked at home in Spanky’s new book.

Woah! The dream!

Wait what

They used to use loads of rubber matting calling webbing for the conveyors. Loads of different types, smooth, grooved, nobbly, spiky, crazy etc. my shoes looked like dinosaurs at points.

we have one here, and if you drive past you get a waft of biscuits

any of you lot recall (or better yet have a link to a pic/vid) who did the front lip from flat on this spot (temple banks, south shields)? wanted to say urwin but couldnt find a fuckin thing when i looked lastnight

Pretty sure it was, shot at nighttime? Sidewalk interview?

Actually, maybe Document?

I can see the photo in my head but not who did it. Sure I’ve seen footage of it too (Mischief vid?) . Urwin makes sense as his Sidewalk cover was at South Shields too.

I feel like it might have been Urwin but also I remember it being in a more recent Mischief video, so was thinking more Ollie Barnes but don’t think it’s his vibe

It’s temple park leisure centre right?

Was it a Sidewalk contents page photo?

Tbh I think I’m creating it in my head rather than actually remember it
