Not skateboarding I know, but Tommy C kills it in this.

Recent photo's

Here are a couple of recent photos, proving that we have been skating not just sitting around getting lardy.

All for Ron and Ron for all.

It's Go Skateboarding Day - Woohoo - and it's raining here in Sheffield.

I thought I'd write a blogpost about something random which I suppose is Skateboarding related but not really.

Whats in a name?

Ronald

masc. proper name, from O.N. Rögnvaldr "Having the Gods' Power," from rögn "gods," lit. "decreeing powers" (pl. of regin "decree") + valdr "ruler."

 

Ronald is a masculine name predominantly found in Scotland where it has always been popular, however in Scotland it usually takes the form Ranald. The name is of Norse origin and was bought over by raiding Vikings. The form Ranald has not really spread from its Scottish roots, however Ronald is widespread, and is common in America where is was the name of the 40th president, Ronald Reagan, and where it is also the name of the mascot of the McDonalds franchise, Ronald McDonald.

As I was growing up I always seemed to notice Skateboarders with the same name as me and always wondered if anyone else did the same? Probably not, anyway I thought it would be fun to post up some sections of people called Ron, Ronnie, Ronny, Ronald... you might dig them.

Ronnie Bertino - XYZ section

Ron Allen -  Risk It section

Ron Whaley - Uprising section

Ronnie Creager - This isn't a section but has some Rad stuff

Ron Chatman - Rubbish Heap

Ron Knigge - Da deal is dead

  

Ron Deily - State of mind

Bye

From now on...

..I will only communicate via Azonto.

That is all. 

Ragland

Bit late on this news but Justin's Legacy design has been attached to raglan shirts by the screen printing process.

Get a hesh raglan with a dope rapper graphic from Legacy's shop now (unless they've all sold out).

I'm Nathan Pemiere

If you're down London way tonight you should go and see this film. Nathan is funny a fuck so it will probably be good and I doubt there is anything else going on in London anyway.

Go to the Facebook event for details of times, places etc.

Official trailer and House skatepark clip.

You can also have a photo of Nathan that I forgot to put in the Almost a Skate Cafe post.

Almost a Skate Cafe

On Saturday night Ash opened up the shop again for us all to go and watch the new Almost video and the Skateboard Cafe promo.

The night started with a quick Dev session as standard.

 

Ghostman turned up

 

We photoshopped in what we think the Ghostman looks like.

 

Healthy party snacks are important to Will.

 

Discovering stella

 

 

Stoic

 

Hirst was dishing out healthy measures of Rum.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Ghostman turned up for a hangover skate and went and bought a pint of mild because he was thirsty.

 

Another good night was had and ridiculous hangover suffered. Cheers Simple.

The Almost video was okay, (Daewon was nuts obviously) but it was all about Skateboard Cafe's sick promo. Check it out below and then go and buy some of their stuff from Legacy or Simple

Front on this guy if you dare...

... but you can't. Because he's too powerful.

SBW video round up.

We're slacking on the blogging, but at least we're out skating. Here's a bit of a round up of some recent(ish) edits and blogs featuring various black wallets.

Matt S came to visit with Will Harmon and made an iphone edit. I can't figure out the technology to embed so follow this link to Matt's Little Wednesday blog. Check out the rest of the blog too. 

 

Finally the Lost Art lads came to visit the steel city and took a picture of Chris in Meersbrook bowl. Click on the link to check out Lost Arts blog and shop.
