Typical Culture - 'The Hype Train'

Typical Culture presents "The Hype Train" a D.I.Y. based skateboarding
film by Zack Dowdy. Taking it back to the basics with tents, concrete,
dirt, tools, and a group of 100% skateboarders dedicated to mashing all
the time. Based out of San Diego, Calif. Featuring Chris Gregson, Greg
Zamarripa, Luis Sedano, Chris Russell, Zack Dowdy, Brendan Keaveny,
Connor Getzlaff, Josh Stafford, Little Chris, and more. 

The Hype Train is a crew of skateboarders that managed to find each-other
in Southern California. When everyone (The Hype Train) is together and
the wheels start turning - everybody starts pushing their limits, going for
the thrill seek. Taking skateboarding back to the basics, trying things we
never even imagined. All because we push each other, and this vibe runs
deep in the Hype Train, making it impossible to see anything impossible.

Premiering January 24th 2013 - At La Paloma Theater - Encinitas, Calif.

Rich Gilligan: DIY Book

Rich Gilligan launched his DIY book last night with a show at Beach London. The show was rad, we drank whiskey and ginger to keep warm and talked photo's, concrete, riding bikes in winter and of course the only way the brits can: 'talk about the weather'.. I recommend that if you didn't go last night to get to the gallery and take a look for yourself. Rich has worked on this book over the last 4 years and all the hard work has paid off because this one beautiful book of landscapes of reclaimed land for a soul purpose to shred.

Graeme

Thank you Will Robson Scott for making this video of a true icon of the London skateboarding fraternity. I have been skateboarding in and around the city of London for nearly 20 years, in that time Graeme has always been there. His passion and intimate knowledge of the skateboarding industry in general is remarkable. Though he may not remember your name, he will always be there to reminisce and roll about with you checking out what's underneath everyones feet and having a go to see how it rides. Big up Graeme,
may your skating days be a-plenty.

"Have fun skating!" - Graeme.

He has set himself the task of skating everyday in January and if you have woken up today you will know that the wind is full power and it isn't the best conditions for skateboarding. I met up with Scott on day one down at Stockers and you can read all about it on the Lizard in a Labcoat blog..

Just wanted to say thank you to Whip for letting us use this photograph for the "IN STOCK" exhibition flyer. The photograph was taken around this time last year, it had been snowing and at this point was melting into dampness. So Me Whip & Bennett made a brave attempt at drying a section to squeeze a skate in. In hindsight we needed fire to dry that shit... but we didn't have fire so we just skated anyway.

Here is the proof:

Huge Thanks!

Once again I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to all those that have been working hard and getting involved with 'In Stock' and 'The Stockwell Winter Games'. We had a rough start with the rain preventing us from hosting the full set of events, but we made do with some best trick comps and new obsticals. Prizes were won and blood was spilled, all in all what you would expect from a skate jam in the winter. Things then moved on to the pub with the premier of Joshua Jennings section for DC, (this will be uploaded onto the worldwide web for all to see if you missed it on the night), DJing from the likes of Matt Gold & Charlie Pearce, a live performance by Shot Crabs Got Jail followed by a Live Beatbox from Tom Pikey Esquire. There you had a chance to grab some merch from Alana's stall decorated with a mural by Rich and Pat, get some beer at the bar and generally have a great time out from the cold!

I'd like to say a personal thanks to the following, without whom this would not have been possible:

Harriet - For pushing to get things done and generally helping out along the way, for the rad stall and staffing the show on the night,
Adam - For sourcing all the wood and metal for the ramps at the Stockwell Winter Games. They were skated hard and I'm sure will continue to be until they are felled to the ground. Also for sorting the bands and DJ's, a seminal member of the OOS team.
Ed Martin -For supplying all the prizes for the games and supporting our projects, huge big ups!
Nik Jones - For nailing Joshua Jennings' edit, hit the spot for sure!
Tom Pikey Esquire - For his voice at the Stockwell Games (I owe you for that!) and for providing an extremely entertaining set at the In Stock show, big up!
Charlie & Dan - For a series of tremendous Reggae sets, you guys played all the right tunes and I was very much into it (as was the guy dancing who liked it so much he thought it best to take off his shirt), let's do it again!
Rich & Pat - For their mural at the pub, I'm sure you'll get your revenge through your paintings on those messy folk that disturbed your progress on Saturday, nightmares and the like.
Simon - For putting us up in his pub & for having a bunch of reprobates take over for the evening. The Queens Head is definitely the Stockwell local.

Thanks also for everyone that showed up BMT & all the South London locals, you guys smashed it all day, thank you all. Let's do it all again soon! 
 
- Toby.

A little bit of rain is no big deal...

Well done to everyone who made it out to skate yesterday for the Stockwell Winter Games..
In true Stockwell form, everyone braved the cold and damp, found the bit of concrete that was drying the quickest and started a new session..

We will be posting photographs, video footage and the results of yesterday's shenanigans here in the next few days so keep an eye out..

A big thank you to Simon, Tin Tin & The Queens Head for having us last night..
and a big thank you to Shot Crabs Got Jail for turning up and doing an impromptu set, they have just re-formed and a good thing too, nice drumming Mikey.
Raspect to Charlie, Jim & Matt for spinning the tunes... good vibes...
And a special thank you to Pikey Esquire, for his hung over comparing all day long topped with a crowd pleasing beat box performance leaving everyone wanting more late on a Sunday night..

In Stock - THIS SUNDAY!!!

'In Stock' & 'The Stockwell Winter Games' will be taking place on Sunday the 4th December starting at 1pm. Since the success of 'Out Of Stock', we have been busy organizing an event to better the last with the addition of the 'Stockwell Winter Games'. This new addition will be a test of nerve and character of those locals hardened enough to enter the competition. The Winter games will feature both BMX riders and Skateboarders (but no Scooterers or Roller Bladers I'm afraid) to include the majority of those that frequent the park. Events featured will include:

- The Hi-Jump: Competitors will face our height bar out of the sugar bowel. Last man standing wins!

- The Long Jump: Longest Ollie / Bunny Hop in 3 attempts wins!

- Fastest Lap: 3 attempts to set the fastest time round the set line.

- *ALL NEW* Timed run: 3 minute run around the park to show us what you got. Judges will rate your performance on skill / number of tricks / creativity.

- Best trick of the day: Best trick of the day in any event wins!

(Prizes supplied by DCshoecousa)

Any amateur skateboarder can enter so get down early to grab your place in the line up.

The day will continue on with 'In Stock' exhibition at The Queens Head Pub. This will start at 5pm there with the premiere of new DC flow rider Josh Jennings video edit (Nik Jones) and a mixture of old and new artwork, photography and film from the Stockwell locals. There will also be local bands and DJ's to entertain, many of whom you'll have seen down at the park.

Seeing as most people are on Facebook, except me and Adam (because we value our private lives) we thought it best to keep Out Of Stock in everyone's faces.

Shucks One (ID) "Cameo Shucks" Solo Exhibition 30th Nov

You may recognize this mans artwork from the Out Of Stock exhibition earlier this year. Anyone that is genuinely into Hip Hop will already know about this man and his blogs: Foundation Rocks and The Kool Skool, and also his spot on the radio show Sensei FM. If you don't then you should spend the time to get to know as this guy has more knowledge about this genre of music and lifestyle than anyone I have ever met, is a bonified member of Zulu Nation and member of the infamous graff team - The Idiots Crew (ID).

He has a solo exhibition coming up soon on the 30th Nov. So far I can't find a location, but when I do I will post it up. Hip Hoppers keep this date free, you won't want to miss it!

Mike Manzoori, always rad...

Mike Manzoori, Stockwell legend, super cool guy and an awesome film maker took home Best Original Screenplay for AIMLESS at the International Skateboard Film Festival.

Peace out Manzo.

Doodle Jam: Halloween Special

Doodle Jam kicked off again at the Notting Hill Arts Club last night. With live artwork from Mr.Gauky, Bromley & The 5683, there was an impressive set of canvas up for sale and a fair bit of drunk doodling. Doodle Jam is done for this year, but will be back again next year in February, so if you were too hung over to make it this time round put Anti-Valentines Day Doodle Jam Special in your diaries with more stuff to draw on than you can shake a dead cat at!
