Reel Life is back!
Following on from the success of last year's event we are pleased to announce that 'Reel Life' will be back again this year. This year's event will be in Paris, one of Europe's finest cities.
Reel Life is an exciting concept which started in 2009 when the first event was held in London. Reel Life changed the face of Streetboard contests forever and became one of the biggest events of the year.
The rules are simple. Put together a team of up to 3 riders; Spend
24 hours in the city; Film and edit a video and present it at the premier
party.
That's right, it means for the best results you will need to skate your
backsides off for a full 24 hours.
Videos are judged not only on the standard of riding, but also on the
quality and creativity of your production.
So, go get your crew together for one of the biggest events of 2010.
We anticipate a bigger event this year with teams from all over Europe,
already confirmed are teams representing 'Day One', 'The True Skool',
'Flipside', 'Addicted' and the return of last years winners 'Anti Ductil'.
We are very excited about this year's event, and would love all of you
to be involved. If your are interested or would like to know any further
info about the event please contact dayonebrand@mac.com

Overcast Streetboard Video Magazine # 1 arrives!
We mentioned a few days ago about the new video concept that was the brainchild of Colin Horan, and today it has arrived in the form of a mammoth 21 minute online video about the UK scene and some of the events that happened in 2009 - all for free! This is definitely the best UK video to hit our screens for some time and it gives you the opportunity to see what the UK guys are skating but also meet the riders aswell. A++++ stuff guys, looking forward to seeing future installments!!

New Sergi Nicolas Video!
Sergi Nicolas has the reputation of being possibly the most 'bankable' Streetboarder out there, watch an event he's in or a video section of his and you know it's going to be good. Once again Sergi steps up and we are brought this video from a session of his at the Brandery Skate Park in Barcelona. Sick park, and sick riding as always!

Gabi Munoz DrunknMunky Gallery
DrunknMunky have just uploaded a Facebook gallery of awesome photos of Gabi Munoz doing what he does best - killing everything in his path and creating history defining moments in Streetboarding. Included in this gallery is one of the sickest photos we've ever seen (pictured left), of Gabi backflipping a huge launch gap into a rediculously steep landing. Make sure you check this lot out, and as always - biggest respect to Gabi for pushing Streetboarding further and further. Click here to go to the gallery.
