Ryan — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:31:36 +0000

Following his departure from Blueprint during the entire teams’ exodus late last year, it’s been made official this morning that Neil Smith has found himself a new seven-ply home in the form of The National Skateboard Co.

Despite also landing himself temporarily back on the injury bench with a damaged foot after diving awkwardly into an East London bush, Smithy can be seen alongside the rest of the National crew in their first web promo, which is expected to be online at 9am tomorrow morning.

Sunday Service: Tom Penny – Exclusive 1990′s UK Mixtape!

Ryan — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 09:00:11 +0000

Most of you probably won’t be aware, but this morning we should have managed to send out our 300th Sunday Service newsletter!

To celebrate this somewhat of a landmark, we decided to bring you something a little bit more on the special side than simply uploading an old section that ties in with the displayed photo on the email. This week, we’ve been properly rummaging around in the VHS archive and have pieced together an ever fashionable “Remix/Mixtape” comprised of some super rare Tom Penny footage that could be found spread out across numerous hard to find early-to-mid 1990′s UK videos.

A couple of tricks here and there have surfaced elsewhere online over the years, but this lot comes straight from its original source, all of it is British footage, and none of it can be currently found on any of the other Tom Penny Mixtapes doing the internet rounds. There’s even a Flip-era Andy Scott cameo thrown in, too.

Four and half compiled minutes of rare UK Penny footage awaits – quit your dithering and click ‘play’ right now!

The first bout of content from the excellent Already Been Done site is currently seeping out into the universe, so keep an eye on their operation to make sure you don’t miss anything. One thing that’s been doing the cyber-rounds over the last 24 hours is the first ABD Mixtape from the now infamous VHS cut n’ paster Manolo, who brings you a seriously mid-90′s mash up of Drake Jones finest moments.

Top shelf shiz – click below then kick yourself for not been in SF during the mid-90s (unless you were, in which case just be stoked.)
