Death ‘Ordinary Madness’ – Part 5: Team Montage.

Ryan — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 07:00:43 +0000

‘I like montages as it means that we still get to see riders who have not got a full section due to injuries, responsibilities etc but are still an important part of the company.
Ronny Calow has been on Death for 15 years. And after all this time I’m stoked to see him not only still skating with the enthusiasm of a teenager but also totally immersed in skateboarding. (Supporting his local scene with him and his brother Danny’s skate store, LEGACY in Darlington.) The run up and out of Ronny last trick was so rough (its in a crusty, ancient old pond) that I thought what he did was not possible until I saw the tape.
Steak is energised as always, flying around like a wild man. I rate his tucked, tweaked approach to the humble frontside boneless.
Schooner has been injured which sucks as I always enjoy his footage but still manages a short but sweet beer fuelled appearance.
Speaking of road sodas, Rhys Grogan is hitting the streets as capably as ever and I like the fact that his footage not only shows him pulling some gnarly manoeuvres but also what shines through is that he’s having a good time as is everyone around him.’ – Nick Zorlac.

‘Doing it for Bingo’ Jam 2013 – footage online now!

Ryan — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 11:02:27 +0000

Sunday just gone saw skateboarders from literally all over the UK descend upon Redcar for the ‘Doing it for Bingo’ Jam 2013, to honour the life and memory of the one and only Steven ‘Bingo’ Binks.

As expected, the 4-6pm session was packed out as every corner of R-Kade’s new layout got well and truly broken in, with an equally as rammed screening of the fourth full length Mischief shop video ‘Sons of the North’ taking place in the parks cafe at 7pm.

Footage from the jam is now online and ready to be watched below, featuring shredding from Ronny Calow, Tom Harrison, Tom Tanner, Josh Young, Craig Smedley, Blinky, John Sykes, Vaughan Jones, Aiden Blaymire and more. ‘Sons of the North’ will be available in skateshops around the country soon.

Massive props to Danny and Ronny Calow at Legacy Skatestore, Niki and the staff at R-Kade, Jerome at Shiner and all of the events sponsors for making the day happen.

RIP Bingo! Never forget…
