Vans Downtown Showdown – Turin, Italy
September 17th, 2009
They took it to Italy and invited a bunch of shit-hot pros to come and compete.
I love these events where they just construct a kick-ass park and rip it to shreds. The pink vert wall with the handrails (?), that has to be my favourite, never seen anything like that.
Full results etc here
Anyone else hate how slow MPORA is? Pisses me off..
UKSA National Skateboarding Championships ’09
September 9th, 2009
Some stuff fresh from this weekend, courtesy of Mpora.
A real credit to British Skateboarding – UK Competition at its finest. Ross McGouran took the street finals, but some silky smooth skating from plenty; Darryl Dominguez for me. Full list of Finalists in the Street, Vert and Best trick winners.
Best trick. Dan Wileman – Frontside 270 to Backtail Revert… sick.

The Skateboard Film Festival Winners
August 26th, 2009
I have not followed this too closely if I’m honest, but a foreign website; Daily Skate News is all over everything skate news related.
Below is a trailer for the winner of the festival. Its in french, but subtitled. Looks real artsy and nice for an independent film. If anyone know where I can find the full film, drop me an email
