Weekend Shred

Met up with Ross Zajac this weekend for a skate and of course to shoot some photos. After warming up at 5Bridges we headed to probably one of the best spots Gateshead has to offer

Ollie up, Fs Flip Manny
Next stop was Harry Bastard Banks, a warning to anyone who decides to go here someone has waxed the entire floor for some unknown reason

5.0
Final spot of the day for Ross was this red rail, he warmed up with the standard caveman boardslide and 3 goes later was riding away from this perfect K Grind.


I then parted ways with Ross as he was calling it a day, to my luck I found some people still on the session.

New Spots

Went on an adventure with Dan Main and Dean Kiernan today with the intention of skating something new or something we hadn't skated in a while.....
First spot was this, Dan actually done this a few years ago but today he hit it first go, no warm ups!!

Nosebonk
Next we headed along the river to skate the Boathouse ledge gap but it appears to be getting a fresh lick of paint so we decided to head over to the new DIY Spot. I have massive respect for the BMXers that rolled this giant slab of concrete over about 300m and up this bank, they've made such a rad spot. Here's Dan warming it up with a chilled Fs Rock 


Next he dropped this beauty of a Fs Smith

Dan wrapped up his session with this Wallride which is a lot harder than it looks

Dean meanwhile was battling trying to get another a Bs Smith which he had rolled before i had even got the camera out.

Final trick of the session was this Nosebonk, check out the shapes!!
