Spot spotting

Ah, could be! Probably a mixture of that and the Cow Ramp on the Isle of Wight.

Boner for @Les_Zeppelin spot drop.
Looks like you could it it as a bank to wall or ledge-in-bank of some sort

shamlessly nicked off of a forumers insta

Found so many Brum/Black country skatespots and photography lcoations due to this man’s work. Alsp highlights how little of our waterways we can actually access in this privatised Tory isle

Yeah the blokes a living legend and seems to work full time as a researcher for health services.
The comments on that video are endearing too, people have come across Uy’s hard work with so many different aims and everyone has respect for him.
I emailed him in 2018 asking if he would be up for doing an interview and he blanked me for 3 years, until he finally replied with a short but polite message with a link to that video.

@PiledriverWaltz please interview him for an, as of yet, imaginary spot discovery themed zine

Spot was really fun. Was really smooth on Ricta Clouds.

It’s here in case anyone wants to check it out.

Had to come make a pilgrimage. The banks are fully inaccessible, can’t even see them sadly.

They’ve made this park pretty nice but the set is much bigger than it looks on film, it’s a steep rail and the landing is downhill.


This is also longer than I expected and the ground is fucked

Cardiff people, has anyone skated the School of Music at the University? This Babz Hepworth piece is crying out for a photo on the bank.

No but I’ve walked past it about 5000 times if that counts? Doesn’t really have a run out.

Jack Branch got a line there in me vid: ride along the wall and then blunt on the bank that the statues on. I can’t remember who it was, but someone in Cardiff had some good shit there before, think it was Rhys Whaley. Might be in one of Nick Bastard’s earlier vids.

Such a non-story. It’s like they had the idea for it, then just refused to give up halfway through when they surely realised it was going to be pointless.

That doesn’t sound like Jenkem. /s

Kind of a shit version of what Feddback Ted is doing too.
Saw him in the insta comments showing considerable constraint, considering they fucked him

I read that as still being polite under the circumstances. Not bitter.

Didn’t Feedback Ted get fired from his academic job because of his old Insta account after being accused of bullying people or something? Sure that’s why the Feedback insta is gone
Makes sense that he’d be diplomatic/constrained if so

It was some guy he pissed off that ran a zine or something, bottom rung of the industry, that contacted his work and got him fired.

Jenkem ran a piece he submitted online , way after the fact without his consent . Subsequently he got into some dm beef with a random who took objection to the piece. Said person got him fired.

Think I heard him talk about it on gifted tater’s patreon
