Ideal alummni Steve Woods has been lurking the store today awaiting a photojob at the youth courts round the corner.

We’ve known Steve since he was a nipper, when he was a definite street skating urchin, and it’s rad to see him doing well. These days he gets regular photos in the papers covering sports, celebs and news items and is driven enough to do his own work too. If only he could find enough time to skate….maybe this summer as the park ratio increases around Birmingham eh?..

Check the size of the rigs he carries around on a daily basis. Each one costs as much as a family car and almost weighs the same…
Take a look at his website..

Good job fella…!

Plus, finally, the Cardiel story is coming through on VBS. The story of an absolute legend. Essential viewing.

And another thing…..Take a quick look at a page from R:A:D magazine featuring longtime Ideal buddy Dan Ball, AKA Jagger.
Recognise the square there…plus a few more shots including one of Benny..These spots are all history though….

Here endeth any sort of lesson or summat….
