Favourite Shaun moment was at NASS after the organisers had been on at all the riders to send a headshot over for the jumbo screen to make it more professional and Shaun had confirmed he’d done it ages ago and it was all fine. Day of the festival arrives then when they finally call his name out and flash up what should have been his lovely grinning face and it’s instead a random photo of some 45 year old black guy. Apparently be couldnt be arsed to get a proper photo arranged so he’d just googled ā€œblack guyā€ and sent the first photo on google images over. We were pissing ourselves and asked why he didnt send one of himself over and he just shrugged and said something along the lines of ā€œall black blokes look the same to these guys they wont be able to tell the differenceā€ then skated his run.

It may have been the StuPoo year as well.

Was at the Bristol prem.

Whole video is great. Shaun footage is some of his best. Josh arnott also has a great section. dom had a big chunk, naturally steez of course.

I haven’t paid a great deal of attention to Ollie lock before but I think his footage stood out to me the most. Really liked his section and the video as a whole.

Was super lovely to see Shaun go pro. Filmed a scene video together when he was 15 so it’s wonderful to see him still going and getting the nod.

The boards are by Gaurab thakali who always makes great images

I’d love to skate with Shaun Currie, just seems like the type of person I love having around on a session!

Shaun rips and is fucking hilarious. Don’t see him around much nowadays as he moved to Bristol.

He was also really sound to me when I started skating 9 years back and had massive imposter syndrome because i was so old/shit and didn’t really know anyone.

He once spotted me approach a DIY spot that used to be near here and then slinking off quietly without skating cos there were some local rippers already there having a sesh. He bollocked me the next time he saw me and told me to come skate next time.

Such a great video. Amazing skating from everyone.

Mate said the Cafe boards are doing well and people like them.

I think I’ll watch this shortly if I can stay awake.

Edit: I did watch it, went to bed, slept for a couple of hours woke up and spent most of the night awake. I am now shattered.

I’m really tempted by the Brass deck.

Rad video too.

They also have a solid offer on their site for 4x old graphics for Ā£100. Saw it the day after I ordered a national board from Black Sheep and couldn’t turn it down.

Always down for a one-spot part like Josh Arnott’s at Lloyds.

That nollie bs ts by Korahn there is fucked. He must be pushing 40 now. Did he recently have a kid? If so, I like the CU on Birth Control engraved into that same massive curved ledge.

And Layth Sami, love that he’s still skating the same stuff 15, 20 years later.

Thoroughly enjoyable!
