The Daily Grind

Motive.

Yet more lumber arrived in store today. We got another re-stock on the Motive Skateboards Primal series which will, with our boy, Jack Edwards' help, sell quick. The best news is that there has been a little price cut which allows us to put them out at £40. An autumnal bonus.


Bright Lights On Dark Days....

Yes! We got the Krook3d and Habitat DVDs' in today, which when it gets dark is a great comfort. Only been able to take a quick look at either one as we have been super busy today answering the phone to folk anxious about them there DVDs plus opening boxes of boards from Enjoi and Cliché and on top of that, making sales..Time to make a cup of tea, turn down the lights and get Three-Deee!


Krook3d Origin.....

We are expecting both the new Krooked 3D DVD and the Habitat Origin DVD in store on Thursday. Both are, judging by the promos and reviews on various blogs, excellent. The Krooked DVD comes with the necessary 3D specs and will retail for £10 and the Habitat DVD will be £14.


Young Ange.

Shop pal Benny dropped a refresher of Limitedition T's into the store over the weekend. As ever they are printed in runs of 20 and finished with some tidy little details.


Lizard Day.

The KR3W visit was immense. The turnout was as big as we could handle with over 200 people getting posters signed and the ramp getting attacked all day long. Ali, Vaughan, Lizard and Tom put in almost three hours of signing duty and mugging for the camera and then Lizard sessioned the ramp for over an hour before getting in the van and heading south. Big thanks to everyone who showed up and to the KR3W for giving us a great show. [Thanks to our facebook pals for the bootlegged photos]

And today we have had a load of Supras arrive including the classic Antwuan Dixon in black canvas. Check 'em here.

The Goat Has Landed..

Just opened up a big box of very dark matter. We have now got Witchcraft Hardware in store, from massive boards, through long sleeve T's all the way over to mesh back caps and coozies. Check out the range here.


Fresh In.

We have had a busy day sorting through a multiple drop of new product. First through the door was a load of new hardware from Landscape, Death and Heroin including the brand new Death 'Destroy' graphic. Adidas was next with new colours in both Busentiz and Campus. Then a box of Altamont beanies arrived so we have the Rolled 2 back in stock plus new styles Blackfoot and the Dose. Finally we got some staple styles in from DC to top things off....take a look here.Almost forgot to mention, Sidewalk has arrived as well, complete with the Big Push DVD. Come and get it!

Girl Road Rash Series.

The new Road Rash series from Girl Skateboards has just arrived. We bought multiples but expect them to go quick. Look here.

And at the other end of the spectrum we got Witchcraft boards arriving in a weeks time so if you want to get a choice of boards from 8.125" to a massive 8.75" then come see us...


The Only One I Love.

Got a bunch of the new A Third Foot Graphics in stock. If you have been skating a while you may remember seeing this Chris Bourke illustration on A3F boards in 2001 so i guess you could call it a re-issue. Whichever way this is an update plus the shape is a little fuller on the nose and tail too. Get right to the source here.


KR3W Euro Trippin' Tour.

This has been in the making for some while but we are finally able to start spreading the word.

Lizard King, Ali Boulala, Horsey and Tom Penny will be at the store on Wednesday the 27th at 3pm for signing and a shred on the mini so make sure that you leave that day free to meet and greet with the KR3W.
