TweetProspective pirate in training Tom Carr paid the store a visit today to hook up a new board and shoes……It wasn’t until Vaughan pointed out what he had done that we realised once again that Carr is indeed a genius/idiot savant….

TweetWell, if you were at the goodbye wingding for Phil Shore then you will have had a good time. There were plenty of smiles and laughs, thrills and spills and some mighty fine skateboarding too.
Cheers for making it out if you came along.
Pictured below is another fine local who is moving to Sweden next week. The second tearful goodbye in as many weeks. Cheers Leon for being a sterling part of Birmingham skateboarding and make sure we get an invite to your new abode in the near future….

TweetW.T.F!!!
Got a text from Bob at 6pm “Full 4 star team at the ramp. One Hour.”
Due to the washout at Stoke there were a few hours to kill on the way to London, and so we got a visitation.
It’s so sick to see the ramp getting a seeing to by these guys. If you were lucky enough to witness this [it’s happening right now] then prepare to relate the tale for years to come, and if you weren’t, the footage will be on here soon…..I’m off back to the ramp…

TweetSad times are afoot. The man like Phil ‘Fo’ Shore is heading home to Canada after spending 3 years in our locale, adding his Canuck charm and sunshine to our lives. Going to sorry to see this fella leave us but to make sure his exit is a good one we are going to hold a little party at the ramp.
Put the 19/6/09 in your diary as an evening of shralp and ‘sodas’ to celebrate our pal Phil and his going to home to Canadia….

Tweet......it would be well worth your while to pay a visit to Stoke Plaza to witness what will be one of the biggest skate events of the year in this country. 4 Star have got [almost] the full team in attendance and that alone is worth the trip.
