Tweaked

The good guys over at tweaker have added some more content to their online skate zine. A couple of months ago, we were asked if we wanted to have a test skate along with some others at Stockwell skatepark in London halfway through the re-pouring of the concrete. We were up for it and Gorm from Tweaker was there taking pics. He's now added a new Stockwell feature to the Tweaker site along with some others. Check it out for photos of Doug, Sweeney and other London locals.

Here's a picture of Doug doing a hurricane on Stockwell's new 'crete.

Doug Parmiter

All the footage on this blog so far has mainly been of Gyppo Army teamriders Kevin McKeon, Aaron Sweeney and, more recently, Anthony Demascio.
Well it's now time for Doug Parmiter to have the spotlight. Here's a little edit put together by Brooks for your viewing pleasure.

Bored?

We were at Cantelowes last weekend and ended up skating with Div, Benson and a few other Scots. Kev Parrot made a little clip of the Scots' bank holiday weekend down in London along with a few other London heads being involved in the mix too including a trick each of Kev and Aaron. Check it out!

Little Activity...

...has been going on this blog over the last couple of days.

Sorry about that, Brooks has recently broken his camera and is waiting for it to get fixed. There's a long story to the deal with Phraeza's camera and Marcus left his ghetto cam at the skatepark.

We've been out skating, if you haven't noticed, it's sunny outside and you should take advantage.

Here's a photo of a "shit" skatespot in Dublin that we skated on the Van City trip.

Aaron On A Roll



Aaron ended coming back with a 2nd place at the Volcom mini ramp comp in Bilbao, 2200 Euro and is now off to America in a few weeks for a month. Isn't someone stoked?

He's heading out to Oregon with Ben Raemers and then hopefully heading down to San Diego. If all goes well he should meet up with Benson, Div, Irvine and Scotty down there, but fuck knows what'll happen with him over there!

Feel That There Are Too Many Shit...

...skateboard companies going around at the moment? We feel that way too.

Do you think that we're exactly the same as some of the other "skateboard" companies that are floating around? You know, the kinds of companies which make boards in China to make maximum profit, regardless of the quality of their boards, the shape, the strength and want to push shit product out to skaters so that they can make as much money as possible?

The kinds of companies which don't sponsor any skaters at all and sell boards in bulk to chainstore shops, where kids who don't know any better (or parents) go to buy these boards without knowing anything about the product they're supporting or who they're giving their money too.

The sort of company that produces boards in the same factory where supermarket boards are produced? The sort of company who definitely won't give a perfectly good second hand board to a poor kid who can't afford a new one for free. Either because they couldn't be fucked or generally don't give two shits about supporting skateboarding.

If you feel that we're just the same as one of those "skateboard" companies and can't notice the difference between us and "them", then you must be oblivious to a few facts. I could go on to list all the things that make us a "proper" skateboard company, but wouldn't that make us seem like egotistical twats?

Don't go and slag us off on internet forums behind a name that you know will conceal your identity or talk shit on us behind our backs, whether you're our mates or not.

If you feel that we can be categorised as being a "shit" skateboard company then come up to us and tell us. Tell me what exactly we're doing that makes us "shit" and we'll take heed on your words, or prove you wrong.

Aaron...

...flew out to Bilbao this morning for an invite only Volcom mini ramp jam. The little git best do well and pocket some cash as he owes Kev far too much! (Sly reminder)

There might be an update on this blog about how well he does, but then again, there might not be and knowing us we'll probably write about the dead cat we saw on the road which had been run over...
