Photo Gallery: Jordan Manning crooked grind

This spot is about as red hot as the tweak on the crooked grind. Jordan Manning got in and out just in time for Jake Rotham to get the photo. Nice work guys.

Photo Gallery: Blake Manning tre flip

Blake Manning got this tre flip in there just before the gap was destroyed. Sucks when a weekday spot like this is put out of action. You never know how long they will last.

Photo Gallery: SWA best trick comp at EYP

Thanks to SWA and all the sponsors for putting on such a rad comp down at EYP last week. Click read more to see photos of the hammers that went down.

Thanks to everyone for coming down and making it rad. Good to see such a large crowd and so many people skating.

Whats Happening: GMTA Premiere photos

GMTA Rolls Deep premiere was dope. Stoked to see such a large crew come down and pack The Bird out. Check out the size of that crowd waiting for the vid to start.

As you'd expect, Quentin Guthrie did a damn fine job with filming and directing the feature and Tyson had his back with filming and editing it. Stoked to see such good productions coming out of Perth.

Keep an eye out over at www.gmtaskateboards.com.au to find out when you can get a copy of the vid for yourself.

What's Happening: GMTA video premiere

GMTA is premiering their much anticipated video titled "Rolls Deep" this Sunday night. Don't miss it.

Sunday the 15th of February Doors open 8:00pm film starts 9PM SHARP The Bird 181 William st Northbridge

(18 + VENUE - ID REQUIRED)

The film features GMTA team riders James Ahern, Quayde Baker, Todd Baker, Luca Prestini, Matt Reilly & Justin Lloyd.

As the films title suggests, there is also plenty of friends, homies and flow riders footage in the mix. From the very onset of this film project we wanted to pay homage to the OG 90's skate videos with the friends sections and recreate the vibe of going skateboarding with the crew.

Facebook event page here.

Photo Gallery: Tom Bentley varial heel flip

Tom Bentley has one of those effortless styles  to all his flip tricks. Big pop and lightening fast flick every time. Just look at how high this varial beef flip is out of such a mellow kicker. No flowers were harmed in the landing of this trick.

Photo Gallery: Connor Harrington fifty fifty

Connor Harrington and the rest of the Folklore Skateboards team have been on a mission lately. Filming various hammers with Blake Manning around our fair city and working on a new video. I've got a feeling we'll be seeing a lot more from these guys in the near future.
