Carl coverage!
Doco and sidewalk for Wilson! Carl Wilson is finally getting some well deserved coverage - this month he is featured in both Sidewalk and Document, check them out if you get the chance...

Demo Time again!
LBC Surf Jam Demo - Cundal, Munson, Phil Aller, Carl Wilson, Adam Howe and Ben Raemers were all in the mix. The ramp was on the beach and although the weather didn’t look too promising the Demo went off. Aller was flying and terrorising the ramp, everyone was killing it but the demo got shut down by Carl with the most perfect kickflip bs nosepick, nollie in you will ever see!

After the Demo we met up with local ruler Mark Churchill and his boys and headed down to Kings Park to check out the new concrete park. It’s was a sick session and everyone got into it. The park is half tranny and half plaza style so you have something for everyone making it really fun. Adam was going down trying to flip backlip the 8-stair rail - all of the slams were worth it when he put it down! Raemers dropped a couple of amazing bs heelflip Indy’s over the deep end hip. All in all an amazing session!

After this we hooked up with Nick from Eastpak who showed us the sights of Bournemouth! Beers got Drunk, pikeys and fat girls got abused and we laughed a lot! The next day some of Phil Aller’s BMX crew hooked up a BBQ breakfast and we headed off to the relic that is Slades Farm, the place is rad and Moley kill’s it with lines galore and even Backflips on tap out of the big bowl!

Soon after we headed for some more brand new concrete at Verwood, the place is pretty small but fun for sure and worth a visit if you are in the area. All in all a great road trip. Nice on to Phil Aller and Eastpak nick and the LBC guys for hooking it up - cheers!

DuFFS hook up with Identiti MTN bikes...
Yep that’s the deal- the whole Identiti team are on DuFFS so look out for them at all the major MTN bike events this year killing it! The Boys were recently at the Filthy 48 competition held at Leisure Lakes Country Park near Preston, Lancs.

All of the UK's top Dirt Jumpers were in attendance. The jumps consisted of a six-pack 6-7 feet high and up to 10 feet gaps with a large roll-in ramp. Two competitions were held on Saturday - the Filthy 48 (Pro and Am) in the afternoon and the NPS King of Dirt Round 1 in the evening under floodlights. A sizeable crowd turned up to see some amazing riding.

In the Filthy 48 comp, DuFFS Glen Coe took second spot with runs including his signature trick - the Swiss Roll and a Heel Clicker Backflip! In the NPS KoD comp, Tom Dowie took third with some really smooth trails style and he threw in some nose down 360's. This is Tom's first placing in a Pro comp - we sometimes forget that he is only just 16 years old! He is also killing it in the NPS 4X with 3 wins from 3!!!

With Rory Backshell injured with a broken arm the other member of the Identiti Team, Pat Campbell-Jenner, rode well in his first major contest for us and even pulled a Barrel Roll for the first time! Good news for the DuFFS/ I dentiti partnership! More news soon!
