Right then mate. Issue number 30. The big 3-0. Turbo sports radio.
30 is the new 20. That's what they're saying. They're saying it. Don't feel like it.
I'll tell you that first name. I've got some topics up with sleeve today mate. I've got some topics. I'm sure we can tangent off.
Yeah, we can work with that. Anyway, let's play the old theme tune and we'll get stuck. Right then. Right.
So, what are you ready to bring? You had some Twitter issues or something? I saw this guy who popped up Pete. I'm sure he writes for Palace or some shit.
I've worked out in Palace constantly. Palace? Corn. What's the corn?
No idea what the corn's all about. It's a new metal mate mate. Oh, okay. Well, I listened to it.
So I've been... New metal mate. Yeah. Do you know how you spell new?
And you? No, and you. It's new metal mate. No, it's new metal mate.
Limbiscuit is new metal as well. Anyway, go to Twitter. So, this guy called and popped up Pete. Tweeted.
Is it acceptable to post your hardest scoot board tricks on social media before it's in a part now? Question mark. He then follows up with, I used to tell the young boys to chill with that shit, but it seems like I may have been wrong. That backside 360 kickflip kid is on one.
In reference to a Radian's Arrudan, I think that's a safe announcement. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know. He writes for one.
I guess me. He must have a couple of sponsors now. Shit. He's wheels.
I haven't heard of them, but he's once. No, no, no, no. Okay, I'm with you. Yeah.
So, he's fucking awesome, by the way. He's fucking awesome. Right? So, he says that.
I replied to that. The issue is too many kids watching and filming on their phones. Right? Why am I right?
Is that? When you're backside 360 kickflipping a fucking massive... Backside 360 kickflipping it with such style and steeze as he is, as well as being like, Instafamous, right? And I'm sure he's doing it in Leon or somewhere where there's going to be skate rats everywhere.
How do you not avoid a mob forming around? Yeah, I don't know that gap at Macber from the top ledge to the bin. You can't skate that without people looking at you. You're not having a solo session on that, are you?
No, you're just looking at me. You're just looking at me. Yeah. Yeah.
So, you're saying people are going to flick their phones out and it's going to fucking turn up on Instagram anyway. Whatever. So, here's one for you. So, Ben sent me this.
And I didn't really get the context of it. So, I thought, well, we'll talk about it, I'm sure. Now, a similar thing happened in Oxford when the Get Lesser Boys were filming with us in Sproul. So, in Sproul, so if you haven't seen the manners video on Thrasher, go and watch it.
Go and watch it. Go Sproul, one of our boys is on there. Switch Half-Blip in a flat gap. Downbraised in a lane.
No, he's hit something else, but he's an outman. You said this last time. Anyway, so he hits the Switch Half-Blip. So, my other motherfucker's there, films it's on his phone.
And then he showed someone else down the park the footage. And it's like, that's your point proven right? That's what I'm saying. If people are out there and people are doing something big boy and other people are there, they're just going to post that shit and you can't control that.
That's what I'm saying. This is what I mean. So, I put it at the end of my point. It was like, you know what's going to end up on Instagram anyway?
It may as well be you who post it right, so whether you've got a fucking deal with it or something. You can make some money off of it or some shit like that. And it's you, you know, you're that mean, you open that sinkhole of the attention. I get where he's coming from.
And if you think, in an ideal world, then we're playing that game, aren't we? That's the whole thing. In an ideal world, we wouldn't be having this conversation because kids with respect, like, guys, I'm filming for a part. You can watch.
I don't mind you watching. Just don't film it and don't put it on Snapchat, fucking Instagram. But if you know people are watching, you know the phones are out and you're doing that back. Sorry, 365 can kick lip.
You're right. You can't hold on to that footage. You can't go on to that footage because it's all. Exactly.
It's out before you even got to look back on the footage. That's how quickly you can add something to your Instagram story and something like that. And it's story as well. That's going to fail on the phone.
No. Story as well. Story as well. Story as well.
Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Of course.
We both know that the ender, of course, but we both know that knowing the ender and 95% of the clips in the video part will take away from that well factor of what he's got for us. 100%. All it will be is a 4K fish eye angle of a clip I saw on Instagram five months ago. And also, Ben's just got the iPhone 8.
I just got it, right? Yeah. The camera's got to be pretty decent on that thing. That's better than my iPhone 6S.
But it probably would be just as good if you filmed it on a fucking DLSR. Exactly. But nowadays, we're technology in the average phone, if you will. You can film some fucking good clips on phones mate.
And you wouldn't even know. You film it right. You wouldn't even know. You wouldn't even know.
And that's also an issue. Because some guy could claim, he's like, yeah, I've just got this clip of, I met him in the morning, we went to the spot, I just filmed him. I'm leaking this or something like that. He could pretend to be whatever the fuck he wants, have any connection with people.
I was like, it looks good enough. Stick a fucking fresh look up in the top right corner. Exactly. Done.
So this whole boy, did he respond to that one? He did. He said, I get you. For me, it's more than just a trick being filmed, how it's film matters.
But that's just me, I guess. I said, I completely get where we're coming from and I completely agree. I'm just trying to see the reality of the situation about how much it sucks. Ben, you've grown in Luke's and bounds, mate.
This is beautiful. You're talking reality. It's like, unfortunately, yeah, idea world. Yeah, you would say everything.
You'd put it in a video part. You'd take fucking 10 years to make it and be the best together. No one would even know you're me. And no one would even know you're me.
And no one would even know you're me. And no one would even know you're me. And no one would even know it. Yeah, exactly.
And it would just come out, boom, premiere, you know, biz, women, cars, all that shit, knocking about. Yeah, and I just say it's like, well, yeah, exactly with shorts. Yeah, shorts. Yeah, shorts.
Yeah, they're just the niger. They're the black ones with the gum side. The niger frees. Just the niger.
The niger. The niger. The niger. The niger niger.
No, they came out with 20 years ago. He's nike shoe, right? He's only got one nike shoe. Yeah, the nike shoe.
Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Every time I say that, we have the first two. Not the costume three, mate.
Yeah, but anyway, what I'm talking about, costume two was very nice. Yeah, but what I'm getting at is that the black one, as a niger, that black one with the gum bottom and the white, the white laces. That's a nice shoe. That's a nice shoe.
The gum on shoes has just grown on me completely. I still don't know if I buy one, but I'm less than a... It's just the king wears them, son. That's what it is.
The king. Jesus Christ. The issue is I just used to have such an issue with the fact that it was called gum, like, chewed up, like, it's just gum. Black gum, son.
I don't know what color is. What color is it? If it's in gum, it's brown. You can't really add the top of it.
Like, pasty brown. Have you seen that in your colorway that the night's got? Or were the black, pasty browns shit? You wore it down and shit.
I'm on it. Like, it's like, it's... Jesus Christ. What else did I have?
That was my main topic, to be fair. I like that, mate, because what you're breaking down is reality of skateboard today. Of skateboarding in today's day. You can't hate on Instagram, because Instagram's bringing out all these skateboards.
We never even... I'm sure Nike wouldn't even know about this guy. I'm sure no one would know about this guy. We just get to flick throw at me.
Every day I can just go in there and go, oh, that's fucking beautiful. You can also take it out whenever you need to. The door's always there. Okay, now let me bring someone up.
As a traditionalist, I'm out. I'm going to watch a video part. Chris Haslam has just released one on Thrasher. He has.
Have you seen it? No, I'm home. I'm a regular. Brought to my attention.
He said, check this shit out. I was like, check it out. I was like, check it out. I said, check it out.
I said, check it out. Straight away. I sent back to him and said, that's fucked. There's some fucked up.
This isn't a bloke that I saw that was on the way in 50-50s. He's like, going between his wheels and trucks. He's flicking out. He does a kickflip and lands on it and carries on.
That's him. He does. You know the wave spot with the sakapamtha bar, but it's a way. He double front-flipped it.
Double-click flip, front-slip. That's probably one of the most famous things he does in this video part. All the rest of it is kicking a kick. No, no, no.
It's like kickflip manual, right? At this part, kale slide on some sort of like, little manual into it. Fucking manual again and down. Like, it's just, there's some nice Tony Hawk shit in there, mate.
Some front, I'd say 30% of the tricks in the video, I wouldn't be able to tell you what they are. I just wouldn't be able to describe it. I'm just going like, it looks like a front-flip possible, but I don't think it actually is. Oh, that's awesome.
It's like with a 180 in it out of a Smith grind to manual. Jesus Christ. I think it's brainchild or something. I think it's got a new, it's not almost anymore.
It's not at all, isn't it? Do you feel fair? I reckon this isn't hot at the press. It's hot at the press to me, but I reckon you probably lapped him up two years ago.
Well, no, he's just been riding that brainchild shit, but we know he's actually noticed. What the fuck is that? It's this Ford company, mate. It was an indie, sponsored video.
Independent or indie trucks? Indie trucks, yeah, indie trucks, mate. Independent trucks, video presentation. Mate, it's fucked.
You haven't seen it, ladies and gentlemen. Go and check it out. Let's know. Go to the comment section of the website, to the support of the radio.
Let's know what you think. Tell us what you think of that super tech shit. It's like a whole other level. I was talking to Kyle who comes in the shop now and again, and I was saying to him, it's a different thing than what I do.
It's not even the same thing. It's like me watching Boa. I can drop in and I can front the roster. That is the extent and I'm flying back out again.
I can't watch it. You've got a room glipper flying around like a son of a bitch. I can appreciate it, but I can't relate to it. I can't be like, well, that is fucked because I'm not doing it.
If I see someone's getting a stare at this gentleman, that is what I'm saying. Even with transition, you can imagine flying out of it and land it. If someone's doing all this tech shit, he does this one thing. It's like a no-comply hand kick flip.
Oh, he should use this hand. Yeah, but it is age. Hand kick flip or something like that to those manual on this weird little bump thing and then off. Then there's another thing.
There's a crook. Pops out. You know how people do the crook front foot? Late flip.
Right? So Haslam does that, but instead of doing the kick flip and stand away front foot, he uses it as kick flip, but flicks the balls the other way. It's a heel flip. It's a heel flip.
What the fuck? I still had it as a do-hand. That's what I'm saying. I'm telling you.
If I ever tried to do it, I'd break my fucking ankle. How? If I could freeze time, if I could slow down time, I couldn't do that. The ankle doesn't flick that way.
I mean, Michael doesn't flick up that way. Exactly. I'm flicking outwards. I'm not flicking in...
In and out, in the round. Yeah. So it's a good video. It's an interesting video.
You know what I mean? I definitely check it out. Anything else you've seen on Thrasher these days? I mean, there's stuff...
I saw... I was not talking about that. Yeah, I had to unfollow all these hashtags I was following. I was following hashtag Shake Joint, hashtag Skateboard, and I swear to God, I would just see the same edit literally four or five times per Instagram session.
Obviously the same edit, the same music. And it's just genuinely annoying me. I don't want to ever be annoyed by skateboarding. You shouldn't.
Exactly. No, it's tough. Well, I see. I saw...
There's a clip of Louis Lopez doing like a manual tri-flip manual. Oh, that's beautiful, man. It's beautiful, but everyone's acting like a little mind blowing. That's beautiful.
It's not mind blowing. No, it's beautiful, though. I liked this one. There's a 180-manual switchmani afterwards, which I like actually.
Wait, in the same clip? I'm sure he does. I'm sure he does. Yeah.
Maybe in the full video. Sorry. Sorry. Manny, Manny.
Drop down. And then there's a little curve. I don't want to be a couple of some people. Two singles, but yeah, definitely fucking hell.
He's just got a new shoe for Adidas. Adidas. It's a converse. Is Adidas?
Are you sure it's converse? Mate, you're 100% sure that's a converse. 100%. Right, so the last issue 29 was on Louis Lopez leaving flip, right?
And he's got a shoe on converse and he got the car, didn't he? They gave him a car. They did. They got that fucking ice car.
Converse, mate. It's converse. Okay, buddy. You do that.
I am correct. I am correct. I saw this before you came in. Yeah.
Put it right there. Right. We know that we did. We can actually not, let's go impromptu.
Impromptu. Let's just set it up. Let's set it up. And we'll give you our first look at this.
Boo Johnson's part. We'll just try to go full screen. Yeah. Okay.
On the iPhone 7 or whatever this one is. Okay. Black and white. Well, I've seen it like Himick already, mate.
Yeah, he's completely bell. I'm sure. I love that shot, though. It's like, it's just a slosey amount.
That's weird. That's big. Can we do the bell from that? Mate.
And now it's going... Yeah, he smokes weed. What's he saying to us already? Oh shit.
That's why I went back to the rail. I'm not going to ever do it. Also, what's this guy? RX Kevin's on Instagram.
What's that? His name? There's a guy on Instagram called RX Kevin's right? He used to write for DJK or some shit and he's all like fuck DJK.
He hates them. I don't know what's happened, but all I still know is that fuck DJK. They screwed him over or some shit. Oh my god.
What the fuck was that? That was a half-flip. No skipping as well. That's what you're saying.
Go skipping. One foot skipping. We're skipping with some people in the background. Fair enough.
On the beach. On the beach. Venice Beach. I mean, I think this is the slam.
I'm putting it out there right now. We've seen. Let's just get to the time code on this shit. We've got a minute and a half of footage.
What? I mean, shall we see? I've seen them attempt a couple. I've seen them land one.
We've seen one trick so far. I mean, maybe we're missing the point. I'm sure if it's music or maybe it's talking about it. I don't know.
But I don't want to see him right up to the sunset. Frontside flip. Let's land it, son. Yes.
Hand touch though. Let's go like that. Who Johnson? You're allowed it.
Okay. That's feeble. That's feebes. Nice.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
I didn't need to go on that long. Really did it. Right. Now we're sitting on the stairs.
I mean, they're funny thing about this. Right. We thought we were going to line up a nice video to comment over. It's quite hard for us.
And it's I'm sure people are tuning out of the moment. I mean, it's all y'all. He's got credit carded and sat in the rail at the same time. Yeah.
That must be pretty. Chin nearly at the ground as well, son. Oh, that's one of my worst fears. Fuck.
Fuck. You're eyebrows. If you cut your eye, you're fucking bleed. Yeah.
Why do you do that? Why do you do that? It's played around your eyes and shit, mate. Padding.
More than it's not skin. It's where there's skin there. Of course there's skin there. Right.
I still. He just didn't know he's growing down. I was growing down. I was growing down.
No, he's growing down. I was growing down. I can't lie. If I'm sure if I was listening to the music, I'd be watching the music.
I think maybe. I think maybe. I'm bald as fuck. Right.
Let's just finish it there. Yeah. Halfway through. Halfway through.
We're doing Johnson Abigod say. I think he's a great skater. Great style trick selection. Shoe fell apart a little bit.
We had... It did look good. They didn't look good. Maybe just sit down with a cup of tea and a whisper and do it up.
If you're going to sit down and watch your b-drongs in, what drink would you have? What chocolate bar would you have made? Your mum said, it's 50p back in the day, obviously. No, we're talking about fucking a quid.
It's 50p. Go and get a twix or something. What are you getting? And what drinking you have as well?
I don't drink you. No, no, no. You can't have a beer with this point. I don't have one.
I don't have one. I don't have one. It's genuinely done. It's only done.
After that, poor chauffe. Anyway, shit. Talk about it. My favourite chocolate bar at the moment is probably a crunchy.
Crunchy, sorry mate. Crunchy. No one can ever knock you for digging a crunchy bar. If anyone ever says, fucking crunchy, yeah, it's something.
Yeah, it's something. Yeah, exactly. I'm going to say it. It doesn't catch probably over a quid.
I don't know what it was back in the day. Oh, you have a coffee, right? A cup of coffee that's the same. Should we go?
Mel? What are you having in there? I'm laughing. I don't know.
A little coffee. A milky coffee. And a terry's chocolate orange. There they are.
They are more than a quid, mate. They are more than a quid. Your mum gave you a 5, didn't you? And the thing is, she didn't expect you to spend it all, but you come back with a terry's chocolate orange.
Is that how much did they call you? No, no, they've got about £1.49 or something. But Christmas, they might give you a deal. And you might find it for a quid.
Might. No, just after Christmas. When they're married. You tried not to put it on Sainsbury, but you probably tried it.
You might have done it. Tasty chocolate orange. Tasty chocolate orange. Yeah, so you put the terry's segment in your mouth and then take the swig of coffee and just let it just do it.
Oh, I don't. Lovely. That's lovely. But that's taken a piss.
Because you've just spent, you know, one, I guarantee you bought a couple of chomps and some harry birds. At the same time, mate. Well, yeah, it's accumulated. Four chomps.
Two fities. No, I'm surprised at this. Chomps used to be a 10-p mate back in the day. I know there's a lot of outrage I see about Fredo's going up.
Fredo's not even that good. No, no, Fredo's a bullshit. Back in the day, mate. People have a Fredo.
You've got a bit of caramel in there. But if you're a true man, you've got a quid. You get 10 chomps. 10 chomps, mate.
Think about the boys! Exactly. Exactly. Fredo's 15-p, they will.
I don't know what they are now. I'm not a Fredo man. I'm sure they're 30-40. I mean, that's taken a piss.
Because back in the day, I'm going to go into the wrong spots. Corner store. 50-p for a fan of a car. Go enough, it was.
Back in the headings. Yeah, back in the headings, mate. I don't know. That was a long time ago.
Yeah, kind of little. Jesus. 45-p. 37-p.
How much did you pay for a fortune price? Yeah. Really? Yeah.
How much would you pay for a four-packer? Oh, I reckon you could get back in the day, you'd get like eight cowsburg for a fiver. It was like good, though, considering wages, prices. Yeah, that's what everyone did.
Eight cans of what? A cow'sburg. A cow'sburg. And I'm not a cow'sburg man, mate.
I learned the other day. Carling used to have a completely different can than what they have now. What do you mean? Who's saying?
They used to have a completely different can design. Logo. It's changed. Yeah, it's changed.
Yeah. Foot is always that white and black icon. What's the one you saw? What's the one you saw?
Red, maybe? It's like that. White and red? I don't know.
It's something like that. Anyway. Well, on the beer front, let's just try again. Let's try every episode now.
We're going to pull up. Look, Groenberg. Just sponsor a fucking issue, right? Just one.
Just sponsor one. I just mean, get around to it. That's what I'm saying. No, just get an eight pack.
Other point cans. Because that's all we're going to drink now. If you get a can. Yeah, three of them too quickly if you think it was fine.
No, the four forties mate. They're nothing. They're nothing. So, Groenberg, if you know someone who works for Groenberg or works for a sort of beer cup, I'm going to take a secondary beer.
A craft beer? I wouldn't mind a craft beer. I don't mind if it's done. It's sweaty hips.
Less. Less. Less. Less.
What's the ship mate on that? You ain't going to have it. Well, I'm a craft beer. Yeah, they're less like...
You love to use pizza pilgrims. I want pasta pizza pilgrims in London. Yeah, the big time placement. Yeah, I thought they went big time.
But they are big time placement. They've got all right pizzas as well. Looks like a proper nice restaurant. It's all right.
The one in Oxford has got a... Westgate. Yeah. Don't say that with me.
I always say that with me. In that for me. That's re-avitising right there. They should be put to...
In the Southgate. Carousel. Yeah, in the Carousel. There's an international tournament this year, you know?
Check it's coming out. What the final win? Of the International World League of Europe. Yeah, or something.
The Bullshit one. Nations League. Yeah, that's like the Carlin Cup. Johnson's...
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's called no son.
It's called no. We're going to fucking mark. I just won. I just won a world of England.
Just won a game of football again. I know at the time we'll be like, OK, well, we won one game. Let's watch them in the whole tournament. Just won a win.
That feeling of being like, you won a game like, we've actually won a game. I don't know. It's insane. Like, if we win a fucking tournament, just the matter.
It's going to happen. It's going to happen. It's going to happen. I think one of tournament.
Well, here's a tournament for you. The Olympics next year. Let's get ready for it. It's going to come in and fucking out.
Is he pretty? He's not pretty excited, is he? Of course he is. London Boy.
Is he? I was getting many Fairfax boards and skate free over there. Well, sorry about that. Stereo boards.
Yeah. Let's talk about, you know. Yeah, I know, mate. I told you that every day.
Yeah, we did speak quite a lot. Yeah, I remember that now. Yeah, Stereo and skateboards. Who asked, you know, what other sort of in that time frame?
We got Alienworks, what are they up to now? They're going through a transitional period. Like, every fucking thing. They rebrand it.
That's what everyone's saying. We're actually going through a transitional period at the moment. Jesus Christ. No, they're kind of...
They're actually... They're all wack. Oh, fucking hell. Mate.
Because I didn't grow up on it. Mate. Mate, that team was fucking legit back in the day. Yeah.
Well, have you watched mine build? Yeah, we watched it together. Well, they're doing it. Yeah, so their team was fucking the top...
The top of the top. The top of the top. I've been playing. I've been watching that video.
The only thing we were focusing on is the cutaways in between shots. You like, look, look, look how it all adds up. Look how it works. And that's what I was focused on.
I remember. Then we're done with the learning tree. Yeah, we were definitely done with the learning tree. What else has happened is getting going to you.
Well, any... Well, I spoke about this, I think two issues ago, maybe. It was the hall of meat where the old boy gets it by bus. Right?
I brought up... I didn't remember that. Okay, so it must have been like, we're fucking this, whatever. I brought up...
Sort an Instagram. Ages ago. Fucking ages ago. Oh, yeah.
And then I couldn't find it. Now it's just come up on... On hall of meat. On hall of meat.
On hall of meat. It's fucking... It's gnarly as a motherfucker. It's probably the best, if you want to say hall of meat.
Oh, best ever. Oh, it's the best ever. Can I just get hit by buses? Yes.
There is a guy behind that camera. He is a street away. Are you telling me he couldn't even hear that bus coming? Because he didn't even hear that in golf in filming.
