Wakestock 2010 Wakeskate Finals

admin — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 13:18:23 +0000

Here is a little edit we did at Wakestock 2010 of the Wakeskate finals.
Each rider gets just 5 hits to impress the judges. Prizes are for best over all rider and best trick. By there own admissions, the organisers/builders of the pool gap didn’t make it easy for skaters year. They even got a letter apologising in advance of the event saying it was tough for wakeskaters. This didn’t stop them pushing themselves and pulling off some sick s**t. Si Powell deserves a medal for carrying on riding after taking a bad fall.
Still the sun was out, the music was booming off the Relentless stage and the skaters were all well up for it.

Best overall rider and best trick went to Will Bradley for finishing with a front side board slide to big spin off.

No snow but LOADS of Snowboards!!! New Snowboards, 2010 Snowboards. YOU’VE got to be prepared!!

admin — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 11:02:59 +0000

I know the snow seems like it months away, and to be honest we are all praying for more of this blissful sunshine, but you must be prepared. Every year we sell out of certain models of snowboards and bindings before we even have the 1st frost on the ground. So this year we’ve got the stock in early to give our customers 1st dibs!!

There are some sick boards this season and some limited editions that won’t be around long.

So here’s a heads up on a few winners. We have personally ridden all of these models and can confidently says you’ll love them. If you don’t, you need to consider joining the dark side and becoming a dirty skier!! “/

So here is K2 Snowboards and Ride Snowboards winners!

For the park riders out there:

THE K2 WWW (World Wide Weapon) Buy it, love it, destroy the park, destroy the board, buy a new one next year!!
K2’s Jib Rocker makes this bad boy a proper weapon – Rock Out With Your Weapon Out!

K2 WWW

Or if you’re quick there are limited numbers of limited edition WWW’s. You won’t find these little beauties in TSA

K2 WWW LTD

So you like to RIDE? Oh yeah, you like to RIDE……RIDE!!!!!

We here’s Ride Snowboards Jib stick of choice

THE RIDE CRUSH

Crush the rails, pipes and kickers on this monster

Ride Crush

Next we move on to my personal stick of choice. Yep, this is what I Ride!!

THE RIDE SNOWBOARDS MACHETE

As the name suggests, its a killer. It kills everything. All mountain, park riding, powder hunting or even a bit of piste bashing, it kills the lot, it chews out up and spits it out!

RIDE MACHETE

THE K2 SLAYBLADE

I’m going to be totally honest with this next board, I didn’t want to like it. I must say, not only because I thought last years graphics sucked…but a FLAT based board???? Ok so we all loved standard camber boards, Then came RC, reverse camber, rocker camber, v rockers, chilly dogs, banana’s and every other name they have….. but a flat based. This just couldn’t work!!!!

WRONG!! It does, oh boy it does! This board goes exactly where you tell it to go, it’s super stable, super fast & no board chatter. Yep, I love this board. Especially as K2 have nailed a sick graphic this year. Pipe, park, piste, powder….YEP SLAYS them all.

You want a race, I’ll race ya, bagsy riding a Slayblade

You may have seen a sneaky peak of this design at the winter Olympics as UK rider Ben Kilner was ripping down the pipe on it.

K2 Slayblade

Any finally…… SOMETHING FOR THE LADIES!!!

It has to be the K2 Va Va Voom

In short, its a Women’s WWW

With the Nikita collab it looks sick! I wish they did this colour big enough for me to ride!

K2 Va Va Voom

For all you rocker haters out there. Before you slate a rocker, ride any K2 or Ride rocker. Let me tell you these guys got it right. Whether its K2’s Jib rocker, all terrain rockers or even there powder rocker, they are all flat between your legs. The rocker starts at you feet! This way you get the control of a standard camber, but the ease of riding and fun of a rocker. The same goes for Ride….. similar bases, different names, Rides low rise, pro rise, and high rise rockers. All flat your legs, rockered at your feet.

Still can’t get your head around it? OK get a K2 flatline base or a Ride Pro rise.

Zac Cummings DROODLING!!!

admin — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 12:52:49 +0000

Zac Cummings art

Zac Cummings is 14 years old, dyslexic and a brilliant artist! Zac has always loved to draw and is very visually aware. In the Autumn of 2009 Zac applied for a grant from Leicestershire County Council, ‘Find Your Talent’ team. He was awarded £250 in January 2010. With the support of his friend Community Artist Winsome Ruddock as mentor Zac has gone on to produce a fantastic body of work. Using acrylic and ink on canvas he has developed what he calls DROODLING which once his background colour/s have been applied involves manipulating the paint whilst wet and then, once dry applying ink.
The journey for him has been amazing, building his confidence daily! His School, Hastings High, Burbage has been very supportive and Zac has even taken classes and shown other pupils his techniques.
He has submitted, and has had accepted 3 pieces at the Ten 2 Gallery in Hinckley for their Summer Exhibition (5/6/10 to 13/7/10) and will have his own solo exhibition at The Gallery, Hinckley Library, Hinckley Leicestershire LE10 0AT. This will run from 5/7/10 to 13/8/10 and Zac will be present for a ‘meet the artist’ opportunity on Thursday 8th July 5.30 to 7.30 (Hinckley Mayor has confirmed her attendance) and for a family interactive day on Saturday 10th July. Zac has come up with the idea of producing a ‘Community Canvas’ on the Saturday encouraging others to have a go at his style of art! there will be other activities too!
Also on 19th July 2009 Zac will be attending and displaying his work at The British Dyslexia Association’s Open Day in Leicester. They have also asked if he will display his work at a special exhibition of dyslexic artist’s work in November to promote National Dyslexic Awareness Week.
He has arranged to have his ’skull’ image screen printed onto t shirts, and a Born Extreme, Hinckley, has agreed to take them for sale.
To think 6 months ago he had not put any paint on a canvas ever, and that all of these images were within him is incredible — he is truly an inspiration!
Zac also Volunteers for the Hinckley Charity SNIPS, helping young people with learning and social disabilities. He is an awesome drummer too!

Zac has featured in the Leicester Mercury, Burbage Advertiser, Hinckley Times.

ITV Central News and BBC East Midlands News are filming him in July 2010. Check out Zac on the BBC website,

Check out Don Bambricks 1st Pro Model RAZOR SKATES

admin — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 12:02:09 +0000

Razor Bambrick Skate

Don Bambrick’s first pro model is a special skate. Not only because of its unique denim blue colour but because of it’s amazing skating characteristics: Without a doubt, the Bambrick is the fastest sliding skate right out of the box. Being much closer to the soul because of the baseless skate concept, offers better balance through a lower center of gravity and makes it much easier to lock onto soul tricks. Alley op topsides feel way less of a chore than in traditional skates and it feels as if the soul is the exact bottom of your foot. The combination of the perfectly grooved backslide plate and Ground Control’s Featherlite frame create the perfect balance point for groove tricks, making it way easier to hold one footers like backslides and torques for longer more controlled grinds. The oversized heel pad decreases road shock and protects knees and ankles from impact pains during sessions. Other great features are its surprisingly light weight and the almost legendary durability and strength which provide full support even after months of skating.

Features:
-       Baseless boot concept
-       Replaceable soul frame, backslide plate and sliders
-       Razors liner with tongue retention system and oversized high density padding
-       Jug Gel Pad
-       Razors 56/90A wheels
-       GC Featherlite frame
-       ABEC 5 bearings

Loaded’s new Tan Tien longboard

loaded tan tien longboard

”The most anticipated board of 2010”
Driven by progressive longboarding as explored by Loaded’s riders, the Tan Tien manifests the desire to develop new tricks and engage new riding styles. From its foot-locking concave, drop-thru truck mounting and pumpable camber, to its responsive nose and tail kicks, the Tan Tien blends carve oriented longboarding with advanced trick riding. The complex contours create a super responsive board that allows for increased confidence when leaning into turns, popping tricks, and powering through slides. With the woven bamboo bottom and the funky grip design the Tan Tien is easy on the eyes. But you’ll need to ride this board to truly fathom its potential.
Epoxy and Tri-axle fiberglass sandwich a vert-lam Bamboo core, pressed into concave and convex cambers as well as nose and tail kicks. The nose and tails are reinforced with an extra layer of fiberglass for added stiffness and strength without compromising the responsiveness and energy of the central camber. DropThru cutouts are CNC milled for precision. This is the most complex board we’ve built to date and we hope you will appreciate the subtle beauty of the form. The boards come pregripped with an aggressive black griptape designed to provide maximum coverage while allowing the board to flex naturally. This is our first foray
in years into traditional grip tape (albeit grippier to match the needs of this board) and we went with this because it provides enhanced traction and control for sliding and pumping, as well as creating a serious “lock-in” on the nose and tail.

Deck only price is £159, complete set ups from £259. Available HERE!!!

Lush longboards now at Born Extreme

admin — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 12:34:37 +0000

We have added another must have Longboard brand to the range at Born Extreme……. LUSH LONGBOARDS.

This is what Lush say about themselves and we believe them!!. They have already shown us what a great product they have and what an awesome service they provide.

Lush Longboards ltd is 100% skater owned and operated, unlike a lot of other longboard companies out there. This means several things:

- We know how annoying it is when you order shiny new stuff to play with and it doesn’t turn up on time. So we put a lot of work into our customer service, making sure your new toys arrive as soon as possible and sorting problems out as fast as we can.

- All our boards, from the Kuni right up to the Revolution, whatever their price point, benefit from our (and our riders) skating experience. We have spent a lot of time over the years figuring out what hardware works on what setup, and we’ve done a lot of mixing and matching to get every board as good as we can for the price.

- We care about the scene, and spend a lot of time promoting and supporting riders, clubs, forums, events, websites, magazines and all the stuff that brings people who share our love of skating big skateboards together. We want the same thing as you – more people to skate with, more closed hills for us to bomb, more opportunities to meet new folk and have fun. Support us and we’ll support you!

The Boards have evolved over the years, developed on the streets, parks and hills of Sheffield and epic downhill runs in the Derbyshire Peak District, the Alps, Pyrenees and whole load of other places to encompass every style of riding from street, sliding, park and bowls, to pure carving, surf style, cruising to the shops and all-out downhill speed.

- The Globe series runs from 33″ to 41″ – perfect for the style based street, sliding, bowl and park rider. These board are loaded with rider input for a fun and functional ride.

LUSH GLOBE SLIDE 36 inch

- The heart of the range, the Carve series includes models for commuting, cruising, carving and slashing your way around the black-top, headed by the flagship Kilima, Kisiwa and Samba – each tuned for a highly specific ride. 28″ to 55″. This range is so diverse that there’s got to be something in here for you…

LUSH SAMBA LONGBOARD

- The Race series is comprised of three decks designed for the ultimate ride. High-end custom layups, well-researched (read “thrashed”) deck shapes and an eye for detail are a product of our riders having a free-reign in the shaping of these decks, bringing design input from all races and freerides over the world. No compromises and designed by people who really know what they’re doing.
