Jerome Campbell’s “2006-2010 Offcuts Edit”.

Matt Hirst has been raiding his own personal archive once again, this time coming through with a full part of offcuts gathered whilst out filming with then Blueprint and Nike SB rider Jerome Campbell for the shelved Story Store video, then later “Make Friends With The Colour Blue”.

Previously unseen quick footed Jerome savageness from the streets of Sheffield, Barcelona and beyond awaits below, get stuck in…

In somewhat of an unexpected move, Sheffield native Jerome Campbell parted ways with Blueprint Skateboards three weeks ago, moving forward as the first UK rider on Pontus Alv’s ever growing Polar Skate Co.

A few days following the announcement, Jerome packed his bags and set sail for Sweden on the Polar and Palace joint “PXP” tour – the visual fruits of which should be appearing in a future copy of Kingpin.

Anyway, this Sunday we thought we’d head back a couple of years and bring you Jerome’s first and last full section for Blueprint, taken from their 2010 DVD release “Make Friends With The Colour Blue”.

Best Of 2010: Paul Shier

Ryan — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 00:00:19 +0000

The release of “Make Friends With The Colour Blue” back in March marked the start of hectic old year for Paul Shier, which included a subsequent full UK tour with the full Blueprint family, a return to America, tours, trips and missions across Europe and The States left, right and center, and countless appearances in magazines, videos and all over the interweb.

With that in mind, we caught up with Mr Shier to see what he made of 2010 so far and what he’s got in store for 2011 – read on below.
