Not in the Smith’s I was in today and now out of stock online.

Bum.

You snooze you loose.

Frankie Darby truck bash to backwards on the livi wall. He’s earned himself a Yazoo (flavour to be negotiated) when I’m next in Bristol.
Been loving all the forecast content as of late.

Same here, but the good old boys at Ideal were able to sort me out.

Maybe try your local to see if they’ve got any left?

Big fan of that edit. The wallride is a great spot to hit on the way back to town after skating the DIY. It was good to see the bandstand pop up too, you see some mad mental cunts there.

And the footage at Buchanan Street is insane. Who is the guy that did the half cab heel?
If we still have WHSmith in town, I will be getting myself a copy the morra.

He’s got blue hair too.

Dee is incredible.

Walking into Smiths, the only shop open in Stockport, and buying a skateboard magazine was the highlight of my week.

Derry’s answer to Steve Olson?

The tre I posted in the Instagram thread was straight out the van. Didn’t even ollie it first, went straight to trying the tre. Made it in about ten.

I know it’s just a web edit and head cleaner came out 20 years ago, but I’m a bit bummed they used that J&MC song.

Knowing Tidy - it’s 100% a deliberate reference.
He had footage in Headcleaner

Plus, using the Jesus and Mary Chain referencing Unabomber whilst also actually filming in Glasgow. As the kids at school would put it “Say suttin”
