Flip Premier @ Snakes

Soap on a Rope, Hai Karate, Starskey and Hutch- those thoughts were rattling through the head as we watch the intro to this psychedelic DV.

It's got that 70's feel, with Play- Doh spliff rollin, swearing, brightly coloured animated characters, which act as a depiction/intro to most of the skaters- some shit hot stuff going down with a Burnquist stunt man like feature on mega ramps and Tom Penny + Rowley as the UK contingent.

Purchase some wheels and watch a skate movie... heaven


Craig and JB rack loitering.

Ryan K and Lewis a guy with money on his mind - 10er to be exact.

Chad crew Flippin the sticker.

Long awaited- doesn't disappoint.

Should be out at Rollernakes around the 24th of October.

Look for it.

Hooked Bomb

Found this on the streets of our far town- but where??

Feed the hunger!

House Comp 09 Edit

Well you saw the lowdown from the event we did here... now check the footage from the lovely boys at Sidewalk mag.

Featuring John Bell, Eddie Belvedere, Ben Grove, Paul Regan plus all the Sheffield local who rip.

Late Skate Lock-In: Josh Price VS Dave Ford

What a battle. After editing the footage we realised the judges might have lost count of the letters, as a trick goes unnoticed... See if you can spot it.

Ramp refresh

The Hooked ramps have taken a pasting over the Summer, there's no doubt about it. As we've got 1 more Roll With Us event left to see the Summer off with a bang, we wanted to freshen the ramps so they are ultra crip for the Grand Finale of Roll With Us events.

Sanding them a bit so the paint will stick. Phil loved it.

Like a scene from Ghost.

Josh even makes manual labour look cool.

Hooked soldiers at work.

The paint was trippy... and drippy.

Phil uses a professional stirring tool to mix the right colour.

A new freshness is coming...

Container Hobbits.

Dave supervises properly with a coffee.

So does Imie with Sunglasses.

Nice and shiny, ready for our friend George Mitchell to draw all over them.

Stay frosty, soldiers
