Concrete Carnage
As expected the third Concrete Carnage kicked off at Romford skatepark on June 2nd. Loads of crazy tricks and lines got put down and loads of prizes were won. Shots were taken for Document so keep ‘em peeled for the article out soon. If you weren’t there then check this footage out from the guys at Monkeyglove, it contains a world record jump on a go-kart. It’s amazing what a few beers and sunstroke will do to you.

Skeg-fest
The DuFFS team were in full effect at their recent demo at the Xsite skatepark in sunny Skegness. The demo was ran in conjunction with the Skeg Fest kitesurfing and music festival, unfortunately the good old British summer was also on top form and it rained pretty much all day. On the up side the parks indoors so the demo and the comp carried on. The park got a general thumbs up from the team, it was a sick course with plenty of obstacles and great lines to put down. Check out these pics of what went down.



Big thanks to Josh Wilson of Oratory Skateboards for hooking us up with the shots, nice one!

If those shots weren’t enough, have a glance at some more YouTube goodness.

Thanks to Xsite, Coogee Surf Shop and Rob for this gnarly footage.

Swede, Swede, Swede
Our boy Mattias Nylen has really turned it on this month with coverage in Sidewalk. Check out this shot of him in this sick sequence of him doing a backside 360 into the deep at Burnside.



As well as this gnarly sequence the Swede managed to get 6th in the Quiksilver Bowlriders in Malmo. The event was eventually won by the Great Dane, Rune Glifberg. This is Mattias’ highest ranking in this event, so mad props Mattias.



Not content with getting coverage in the UK the Swede also managed to squeeze in some coverage stateside in Thrasher and Slap mags.



And finally the cockney Swede gets some coverage in the latest Kingpin. Keep it up Mattias!


Saffron Walden is finished!
At last there’s another great concrete park in the UK. The boys from Dreamland have just finished the park in Saffron Walden and it’s sick! Check out this footage from Munson’s trip to the hallowed ground.

Glasto!!
DuFFS team rider Rob Smith was down at this years Glastonbury doing demos on the mini ramp with the likes of Greg Nowick. Providing the rain subsided, which it didn’t! Hope you enjoyed the mud bath Wob.
