Freestyle Skatestore Official Blog! So I was posting on SHREDWALES.COM alot but I felt I was missing out doing my own thing, I hope to post as regularly as possible as the FREESTYLEKATESTORE.COM team riders are vast and incredibly active in the skateboarding calender, but I will also be posting up all the stoopid things that go along with skateboarding, as I once read on a beer coozie, "Sometimes skateboarding means not skateboarding."
The shop will be shut Sat, Sun, Mon, due to the bank holiday situation so I hope to see you all Tuesday. HIPPY POO TEARS!

I wish I new who distroed Roger, I want it back in store.
Dainton knows haw to throw a shin dig, he built a ramp in a week, he put on booze, basketball hoop, a Porno Paul Documentary complimented by Lt Meat song.
Then it was out to Le Pub (the favorite haunt of any self respecting mosher, skater, musician & artists).
It was amazing we drank like it was going out of fashion. I think Chav Dan ended up in hospital, he was a bloody nightmare.
MERRY CHRISTMAS HOMIES!

So stoked to have been part of Dainton's ramp resurrection, if you don't know Dainton's bell-end next door neighbors complained so much his ramp had to be removed under some dumb ass, you can't do what you want on your own property rule.
Well a couple of years later it has worked out rather well because he has erected it in doors at his photography studio Photographiti, it is a private affair I am afraid but one day if you amerce yourself in the Newport scene you may get invited along, you never know. Stay tuned for footage.

Hi
Have you had any response from steve re the surface?
The lights had a new clock weeks ago and was working. Is this now not the case? What times are you expecting light that it is not present?
Happy to meet you on site
I personally don't do fobbing
All the best
Neil
So these are the facts, are the lights on or not, I feel not as everytime myself or my crew have been down there they have not, secondly I fear Steve has bad news for me and he is to scared to tell me as this has gone on for months.
The one good thing about the scooter boom has been that there is no argument that the skate park is being under used or used incorrectly.
Send in your pictures of your best Newport Skatepark grazes and maybe win a prize.

I have sent this email including picture to Steve Bickerton and Neil Seargant from the Newport Leisure, this is about the 5th email so far, we have already had some shall we say heated conversations with Maveric and they insist that the fault does not lie with them but with the council, so lets see what they can do, sod all I expect.
We all know that the problem with the surface hasn't been addressed, we need this to happen but if it is not, please tell us. Enough fobbing off now, it is time to put the cards on the table. We are the users and many of us are tax payers. Lately not only has the parks substandard surface been an issue but also it's lighting, it has not been coming on and we have had to make do with the astroturf lighting, which casts shadows which a health and safety issue. Kindly let me know, these are problems that need addressing, they are not going to just go away, the park is well used and we deserve to be looked after like any other leisure provision. Yours sincerely Darran Ward Owner of Freestyle Skatestore. |

Dear loyal Exist. fan base,
Yes it's true, we are in the process of developing an Indoor skate park in Swansea, we are still finalising arrangements. We will be hosting a fundraiser on the 23rd of December in Mumbles, so please try and make it to that gig (more details later)
We will need all of your support in the next few months, so whether it's purchasing a t shirt at the store or helping organise fundraising events, it's all welcome.
The schedule of the build is due to start in February 2011. With a 2 month build expected, we are hoping to be open for the Easter holidays.
This is how the pricing structure is lining up.
Membership - Annual £10.00
Non Members - £5.00 per hour.
Non Member Students - £4.00 per hour with (NUS Card)
Members- £3.00 per hour
Session prices will be worked out at a later date.
You can sign up for membership at Exist on Oxford Street from January 2011. Exist gift vouchers will also be a valid means of payment. (Under 18's will need to fill out parental consent forms which will be available to print out online during the coming months.) This will save queueing up in the first opening weeks and help support the park in it's earliest phase, your support is key and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has stuck by us through out the years.
Many Thanks.
Ric Cartwright, Bellend and owner of Exist.

Always happy to see friends repping our shit, and these friends are the very talented hip hop outfit Astroid Boys.
I couldn't get to this but it was the album launch, these guys don't just play their music they will go out of their way to entertain you with it. I strongly advise you go and watch them and I strongly advise you buy their album SPACE JAM available from Freestyle for the reasonable price of £6, these guys are going places, buy their shit and say,"I was into those guys way before you." haha!
