Russ is quite well known for not being shy of taking a slam or two (see wrestling match update or any slam section in a MN production) but he also takes a few knocks behind the camera too! Good job he’s got that camera insured!

Funday Sunday…
January 30th, 2007
After a quick visit on Sunday to see Albert Earl Dixon and his proud parents, Gonz, Russ and Veran decided to hit up a few local spots that we hadn’t skated in a while. A productive day with everyone getting something in the soul catcher and Veran putting down a speedy line at an overlooked local spot. The Harmony video will reveal all……

Sudbury Saturday
January 22nd, 2007
Saturday was spent up in Sudbury for Dave, Russ, Gonz and Sandy. A rare blue sky meant an early start at the skatepark and then off to a few local street spots…including one by the smelly dog biscuit factory. “It smells of marmite”. nope, dog biccies. As the sun set the bmx ramps got a pitch black night skate whilst dodging wet patches, asking for trouble…
Steve Photo…
January 19th, 2007
Dave sent this photo over he took of Steve (and Sandy) back when we were building up the wasteland spot the other month. Cracking snap!

Unexpected Sunshine…
January 16th, 2007
On Sunday the weather kinda surprised everyone and how could you not go out skateboarding with a weather invite of clear blue skies and dry pavement? So Russ, Sandy, Gonz and Dave headed out and hit up some new and old skatespots around Colchester. The first spot needs to be christened ‘Bird Shit Walls’. Gonz got a bunch on his new griptape to Russ’ amusement…until russ saw the birdsnest on his board! After zigzagging all over town and cake for afternoon tea the day ended with an evening skate at Royal London, you can’t ask for more than that in the middle of Winter…
