POLAR SUMMER 24 HARDWARE
New Polar hardware just lit up the board wall. We have received the latest pro boards for Jamie Platt, Shin Sanbongi, Aaron Herrington, Roman Gonzalez, Paul Grund, Dane Brady, Nick Boserio and Oskar Rozenberg featuring artwork by Sirus F. Gahan, Pontus Alv, Paul Grund, and Jacob Ovgren. This hardware refresh is backed up by some T-Shirts reappropriating Jacob Ovgren and Sirus F Gahan’s board graphics. Another unique product joins this drop - The Polar x Pith Deck Book is a Pontus Alv collaboration with Pith co-founder Liam Goward, a template filled creation designed to inspire the future of skate deck design.

SKATEBOARD CAFE SU24
Skateboard Cafe has organically blossomed into one of our favourite companies ever since Rich Smith releases a scene video the brand is named after all the way back in 2008. All of their products are as thoughtfully created and distinctive as the video projects Rich continues to craft. We just received the latest drop from them which is centred around by a Hecox-esque ‘High Street’ series of boards designed by long-time collaborator Gaurab Thakali, a beautiful quadriptych peppered with business names calling out the team. This series of boards is joined by some banging new clothing that also includes crews, tees, and socks featuring Gaurab’s work.

5000 WORDS: BEN COLEN
We’re pleased to bring you the latest interview in our 5000 Words series, a closer look at some photos shot by Ben Colen, and the stories behind them. There are some amazing photos in here dating back to his early days behind the lens for the Crailtap family. It has been great to hang out with Ben over the years when different Euro excursions led to him visiting London. Not much has changed in the grand scheme of things, Ben is still married to the very same game and he continues to put in the work as this article illustrates. Enjoy our curated discussion which features fifteen photos hand-picked by Ben. It includes images of Aidan Mackey, Alex Olson, Cyrus Bennett, Brian Anderson, Anthony Van Engelen, Cory Kennedy, Jerry Hsu, Ishod Wair, Mark Gonzales, Mike Mo Capaldi & Sean Malto, Raven Tershy, Rick Howard, Tyshawn Jones, Vincent Alvarez, Yuto Horigome, and the stories behind them…
