Jan — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 13:09:26 +0000

The Paris Obstacle

Deeli — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 08:47:08 +0000

This weekend coming, Feb 9.-11, Adidas France are putting on a free for all skate / art event at le centquate space. Badger of Moving Units and Side Effects of Urethane is building a new obstacle specially for this, and judging by what he’s built before for the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, for South Bank, for Hoxton and for the first TSEOU event in London, this should be something to experience.

O Canada… – Adidas Joining In

Jan — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 09:33:56 +0000

Canada seems to be the place right now. Next visitors: adidas, with Montreal being the Euro heavy squad of stylers’ destination of choice. Dunno if they came by subway, but obviously, looking at their amazing clip, they must have spent a hell of a lot of time on the underground. Anyway, they brought back a fantastic piece of audio-visual stimulation.Thanks to some fresh Queeb spots, the awesome skating of Lucas Puig, Dennis Busenitz, Chewy Cannon, Jake Donnelly, Silas Baxter-Neal, Benny Fairfax and the rest, fine filming and editing by Dan Wolfe and Torsten Frank and the music of The Horror and Wolf Parade. Good stuff.

Inside 97

Well first things first: Happy New Year. Should be a good one, unless the Mayans got it right – and even if they were you’ve still got all summer to shred.

So issue 97, what to say? Well we’ve got German stylemonger, Lem Villemin, on the cover and in the headline interview – and he kills it, check back his exclusive Cliché clip.

What else? Fabian Lang brings some Bavarian power and solid skateboarding your way in his Effect, we join Propaganda Rollin Co. on their first ever pan-European tour, the Quiksilver guys smashing it stateside – as shown to us through the Lens of none other than Arto Saari, Gravis get stylish in Antwerp and Wieger and Youness catch up with us about filming for The SB Chronicles.

All the usual bits and bobs are in there too, as well as our heaving subs deal that you should check out if you’d rather save money and save trudging to your local shop.
