I used to skate with Mark in the UK back in the mid 90’s. Super nice dude, mad skills and Blueprint representative. Here’s his Ten Tricks over at Kingpin. MFWTCB coming in April, Yo!

KNOW THY MANOEUVRE – THE CABALLERIAL
So it seems that Steve Caballero won’t be around this weekend - which I personally am gutted about (get well soon steve). Even though there is not one in the clip above - if I could skate mini like that (in 1989 - 21 years ago, or any other year) I would not bother posting on here! READ MORE

ARTO AT HOME AND ON THE ROAD
The Gravis Media player is one of the wackest things on the face of the earth. Luckily, to compensate for this, they have a team headed by one of the best daredevil skateboarders to ever walk the earth, SOTY, Arto Saari.
