SYB FRIDAY 666 - 29th March

Leave the beef and skate bitching behind this weekend. Get yourself a crew, some brews and go and have a fucking laugh falling on yer arse trying to skate. It's what it should always be about right?

Hence the reason we got some stupid shit this friday. I think this is gotta be a NBD, Obeast providing the makeshift weigh for the yeti to jump out and back in.

See you on the shred.

If your Scottish and Skateboard go get a fucking copy of sidewalk asap and examine the insanity of air Colin Adam is getting at Queens Park Vert Ramp first hand. Massive props to Col for getting the cover, everyone that has seen him skate knows he is a fucking ruler. Support the scene!

Also Kingpin has a beauty of a cover on the new issue plusa sequence that you need to see - all i'm saying is Alain Goikoetxea is pulling some crazy asss shit.

SYB FRIDAY 666 - 8th March

Here's one from the crypt of unused photos that have been misplaced or marked for some reason... No less insane but just from a photo perspective this shot of Colin wasn't shot right so never used. But the fact he is doing a STEGG (STALE EGGPLANT) makes up for it. FUCKING BOOM.

 

GSS 'White Thug Life'

Little edit from the GSS lads! Keeping the local park scene rad with a good mix of shredders in there.

SYB FRIDAY 666 - 1st March

Raw street footage fresh from the shred tonight. Altho the ground was damp a few of the lads went on a little spot hunt. Mainly hitting up some pretty gash spots but sometimes they can be a laugh. Prime example is Weri here ragging in off a shoddy rail into shitty bank!

A wild spot was checked but wet so will be documented in the coming weeks - GNARLIER.

Weir - Raggers it in off the top.

 

THE WEDNESDAY WALLOP

Aaron Homoki kills it. This weeks Wallop is made up o his parts in A Happy Medium 1 & 2, they're both incredible bits o skateboarding. Looks like he's gonna feature in A Happy Medium 3 as well. Can't wait!!

Lifeblood/Indy tour

King lad and co bring the pain with this monstorous tour of europe. With Colin and a load of indy/lifeblood skaters in tow.

SYB x FOCUS Competition

So here's a little eye brow raiser for all the SYB followers out there... we have teamed up with the hella decent fellows over at Focus Skate shop to provide all the demons out there with a chance to win one of the new Focus 'Surface Pressure' boards, with 2 runners up winning a Focus tshirt.

Focus Surface Pressure Series

Head honcho, Sibs gave us a little insight into the new Surface Pressure Series...
"We've just released this series of 3 decks by long time shop collaborator Tommy Perman aka Surface Pressure. In his trademark style he has captured 3 scenes from the streets of Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Tommy has been collaborating with Focus since 2004, creating swing tags, t-shirts, prints and most recently boards. He grew up in Edinburgh and has spent the majority of his life living in the centre of cities and influenced by their rich visual clutter and the way they grow and change all the time."


So now in traditional SYB style we aren't making the comp straight forward, but of course rather stupid.


How to enter...
Go on the SYB Facebook page, look for the 'SYB x FOCUS Comp' Status, Like and Share the status then leave your answer as a comment. Or email: shralpyabass@hotmail.com


Now comes the stupid part!
We want you to come up with a fucking ridiculous 'SYB Chimera' (A Chimera is an imaginary creature made up of two different animals like a Griffen, Centuar, Sphinx.. etc). As usual, the more stupid and funny entries will be regarded highly.


If you want to pick up one of these boards the old fashion way and part with some hard earned cash, head on over to www.focuspocus.co.uk the boards are £39.95.

SYB FRIDAY 666 - 15th February

Here's a treat for all the skateboard lovers out there... a plank of wood and some fierce concrete is all you really need! Here's someone who loves some scary crete and mental gaps. Colin Adam making up NBD lines at Saughton for fun.

SYB FRIDAY 666 - 8th February

A few of the lads went down to Flo Skatepark in Nottingham last week for an all night shralp with some lads from iron Column and a few other heads from down south.

Random information from the trip was as follows:
- The Leeds pool bowl is still hard tae skate but fucking satisfying to get a grind on.
 - The chilli sauce in the kebabs in Nottingham is fiery as hell.
- Drinking beer and skating is prime.
- Craig Questions is a crazy/funny man.
- Snelling and the lads know how to rip out some wild old school shit.
- Flo bowl is hella fun to shred.
- Iron Column lads are sound.
- Dunder can sleep in a car boot.
- Hull is is fucking shite.

Here's a few photos from the shred…
