Actually still alive...
01 Jul 2009 So... no updates for over half a year. Pretty impressive i'd say. Im gona start updating more as ill actually be skating over the summer. So... footage and photos soon.
We're still alive. 
So... a month or so has passed...
30 Oct 2008 Sorry... college... nuff said.
Haven't been skating that much recently, but ive still got some bits of footage that i plan to update the site with soon. Im also currently working on the third and final teaser for hands down, so keep checking back over the next week or so. Im actually going to try and keep ontop of this site from now on...
Woah! i havnt updated for ages...
21 Sep 2008 Well, we're all still alive... which is good. I also do have some footage to update with when i get round to capturing.
So for now, heres another montage that was filmed at the shots jam. Click.
SOS Jam footage!
25 Aug 2008  Footage from the SOS (save our shots) jam. Again, thanks to everyone that turned up, and thanks to everyone that helped to make it a sick day. Photos coming soon.
Dear Quicktime Pro...
25 Aug 2008 ...Sort yourself out and stop being so ruddy slow!
Yours sincerely Everyone that wants to watch the shots montage. xox
"I NEED THE SOS JAM FOOTAGE!?" - Matt
24 Aug 2008 Firstly: The SOS (save our shots) jam was absolutely sick with a massive turnout. Thanks to everybody that came along, and a massive thanks to everyone that was involved in organising, advertising and making it a memorable day.
Secondly: Im currently updating off this little gem, while taking a break from the solid hour of capturing ive done so far. So hopefully they'll be footage from the SOS jam coming very soon. (Blame chris for it being late. He had my HDD) Thirdly: There might be a few more little footage updates in the next few days when i actually finish capturing.
SOS JAM!
16 Aug 2008 Click the 'shots progress photos' link at the top of the page. Haha
Gonna be a sick day.
A quick reminder
16 Aug 2008 The SOS (save our shots) jam is on tomorrow and we need a massive turnout! Anyone and everyone is welcome so make sure youre there to give us a fighting chance of keeping shots.
Sick-on-a-stick.
NOOOOO!! SHOTS AND MATT!!!
03 Aug 2008 Click here for all you need to know.
And make sure youre at shots on the 17th to try and keep it alive! Also, Matt has recently moved from Aldershot to Gloucester.  But fingers crossed, we're still going to be able to skate together regularly so expect many more updates from matt.
Shots blog
27 Jul 2008 You see that thing in the corner up there? Click it and see what happens.
Finally!
24 Jul 2008  So as promised, heres the shots.1 montage that we have filmed since shots began. Some of the filming/skating is dodgey, but who cares cause its all about fun. (Its also a tonking file size and it might as well be 11 times better then HD) Also, check out www.thesnowboardshop.co.uk, which is a new shop in fleet. Although being named 'the snowboard shop', they stock loads of skate stuff, theyre not a chain store, and theyre safe as airbags.
So far...
23 Jul 2008 While editing the shots montage, ive encountered problems with after effects, premiere, quicktime pro, SmartFTP (my site not being saved on my computer anymore), blip.tv and now photoshop.
But, to pass the time while the montage is being rendered, exported and compressed, heres a sneak peak of whats to come.
So then
22 Jul 2008 All the recent footage has finally been captured and ill start the edit as soon as i find a good song for it...
alans pissed off
20 Jul 2008 alans pissed off to L.A for a few days and left me in charge (wise move)! not really to much to say though. been skating a bit and filming here and there so there might be a montage in the near future. part from that we finally poped into "the snowboard shop" in fleet the other week to say high and get some stuff there. they have a good range of uk boards (mainly blueprint) and some u.s boards thrown in for good messure. the guy who runs it it safe as and everyone should go there! deal? ummm....thats about it really. part from the fact that there is goin to be a sort of big push summer trip in the near future. seeming as i have a car and a flat in bristol we are going to make the most of it. hitting places like stoke, bristol, mk and some other places and spot along the way! should be a right laugh/disaster!
I havnt slept for 48 hours so heres a useless update
03 Jul 2008 So, i havnt updated for a while...
1. Sorry, been busy lately with finishing my exams and such 2. We have been filming quite a bit, but i cant capture any of the footage as my computer that i capture with is officially screwed for the moment thanks to my fish tank leaking on it. As im bored and have nothing to do, heres a labeled picture of how my desk is looking at the moment (because i find it funny how much crap ive got on it) 3. Take a look at Matt's flickr for a few new photos from 'shots'. Thats all i can think of at the moment so ill update with footage when i sort my computer.
Believe it or not...
20 Jun 2008 we're not all dead. Sorry for the lack of updates. I was planning to update with some footage from the other day, but the computer i edit with decided it didnt want to start up (THANKS VISTA). So, not much to update except to say that chris is back from brizzal for the summer, so there should be loads happening over the next few months. Enjoy the summer and go skateboarding tomorrow.
GO SKATEBOARDING DAY.
News... finally
17 May 2008  So firstly, heres the 'spring montage' which consists of a selection of offcuts we filmed over the last week or so. Secondly, matt has a new portfolio site so have a peek. Thirdly, Chris has new shoes and pressured me to write this. So "nike BOOM tre's". Fourthly, we're welcoming a (WORKING) vx1000 back into the family. We're hoping vx and xm get along well and dont mind sharing a bag. Lastly, matt (again) got one of his recent photos featured on the cover of the new tweaker. Props.
ipods n all that
26 Apr 2008 So click about an inch to the right of your screen to subscribe to the fleetskateboarding podcast. For the record, i didnt copy fiasco or blueprint with this and ive been waiting for my podcast to be aproved for over a month now... and itunes is a bellend.
Scratch that
25 Apr 2008 So... although being a lifelong canon hater, im pleasently suprised at how much i like the xm2. So heres a little montage with footage we filmed yesterday.
Canon xm2 for sale!
18 Apr 2008 Brand new and never been opened. Still has original seal and such.
£1200 (xm2's retail at 1500 and above)  More photos here. Post on that thread if interested, or email me at gilbertdafrog@hotmail.com
Relying on matt for updates!
17 Apr 2008
Alans really on the updates at the moment...
25 Mar 2008 Well, as i mentioned in the last update, i broke my vx at farnborough while filming on the new block. Finally got my new camera the other day, its a lot smaller then the vx n u can edit on da cAmErA N EvRiFiNg. So me and chris went 'filming' in fleet.
Theres also some offcuts from a couple of nights filming (featuring me, steve and matt) on the right of your page.
Well...
12 Mar 2008 Ive managed to break my vx while filming at farnborough... sooooo... if the insurance wont cover it, who wants to buy me a new one?
hmm... well....
02 Mar 2008 As Chris rudely reminded me today, I haven’t updated the site for way too long.
Firstly, check out matt’s flickr for a couple of new photos n' that. Secondly, head over to southendynamics for their new winter edit. If I ever get round to capturing all the recent footage, there might be a few new off cuts clips soon. Other then that here’s not much to update. Get off the computer and enjoy the 'good' weather.
Its always inter-fucking-net ex-fucking-plorer!
15 Feb 2008 Well I designed the site for firefox, so internet explorer is obviously going to hate it. Firstly, the footage content on the footage page seems to go to the very bottom of the page. Secondly, if your internet explorer isn’t the newest version, a few images on the site will have an ugly grey border around them. Simple solution, get firefox.
Welcome to version 10
14 Feb 2008 First things first, learning flash from scratch is about as much fun as genital herpes.
Fleetskateboarding has been online for 2 years now so i thought it was about time for a new site... just in time for spring and all that. Theres a new 'montage' from a load off off cuts that were filmed recently, and also a whole batch of matts new photos. So.. enjoy
Version 10
05 Feb 2008 10 days till the new site should be up. Just need to do the 'finishing touches' now.
Nice one Matt
31 Jan 2008 Matts gone and got another photo featured on crossfires 'moves'. More new photos coming in... 15 days..?
Feb 15th
15 Jan 2008 Version 10.
A single month... which means i should properly stop writing this and make a start on it.
Happy new year 'n all that!
02 Jan 2008  Heres a little bit of mess around footage from the arcade.
#2
02 Dec 2007
Fully flared..
19 Nov 2007 Its one of those underdog videos that had NO hype around it.. oh wait..
Its officially out in the UK now and myspace bulletins are saying its amazing! Go buy.
New footage? Yeah right!
11 Nov 2007 Went out filming for a couple of days and heres the offcuts.
Bristol
14 Oct 2007 Me and Shennan went up to Bristol on Saturday to see chris (who has now moved up there for uni). Got quite a bit of footage for Hands Down which, touch wood, should be done around spring time... possibly. Might be a couple of clips on the site when i get round to capturing.
Skate.
12 Oct 2007 Matt, Steve and me went to bay66 for the 'Skate tour' to mark the launch of the new game from EA. In the little jam on the block, i managed to blag £40 and steve got £20. Heres a little article of the event with a picture of me with a fs lipslide by gorm.
Push big
09 Oct 2007 Blueprint have put their big push edit from this year on their site for anyone that hasn't seen it. Click.
Grainy as sandpaper
25 Sep 2007 Head over to the footage page for a new mini clip of the footage we filmed the other night in farnborough skatepark.
Shit.
At the moment...
17 Sep 2007 We have pretty much no footage for the site as 99.9% of what we're filming is being thrown into hands down/hands down offcuts montage.
But southern dynamics have just finished their promo along with a shiny new website.
iPoo'd
13 Sep 2007 My cracked, dented and overall fucked nano finally gave out while i was on holiday... New ipod time.
New piccies!
08 Sep 2007 I havnt really been doing
Nothing much...
06 Sep 2007 I havnt updated for ages so ive decided to use the excuse "ive been busy with school n that".
Stoke was sick, except for Chris royally fucking up his ankle and having to drive home! Montage soon...ish In the meantime, check out the 'were ok, eurok' girl tour from crailtap.
Weekend in the city 2007!

Check out the olliesonline photo forum for more info.
Urrm... updates... hmmm... oh shit. One tic...
01 Aug 2007 I really do not have much to update with but.. i might as well i spose.
There might be a few little clips of offcuts on the site soon when i bother to find my capture cam under a large pile of shit. In the meantime, this truly is gnarly.
What is this "summer" you speak of.....
25 Jul 2007 Well we all know that the weather has been/is/probably going to stay... SHIT. So there hasn't been a lot of filming going on... but, in the next few days and weeks we got a few trips to a few parks including the new park near Dorking, Bournemouth and hopefully soon we well be going on the "stoked" road trip (ten points for guessing where we are going on that)
OMFGZZZZZZ IT WAS DRY
17 Jul 2007 Well.. the rain pissed off for 4 or 5 days so here's the off cuts from the only
glimpse of summer we've had this year.  Enjoy.
NEW MONTAGE UP
17 Jul 2007 Oh wait... Sorenson decided to be an emo and kill itself.
Early tomorrow Keep checking back
News n that
05 Jul 2007  Footage from Guildford comp. Was a laugh when the rain finally let off. Under 16s: 1: Sam 2: Andy Bateup(?) 3: Alan Robinson Overs 16s: 1: Pete Adams 2: Ben C 3: Not sure Also, read this little bit on rubicon skateboards who are running skate schools around the country to encourage kids into skateboarding. Now lets just hope this shitting rain stops so we can start filming again...
Day after tomorrow.
30 Jun 2007 Heres the view outside my window today. This, of course, is slowing down the filming for hands down. But hopefully it might dry up in the holidays and we'll get it finished.
Also, to give this update some meaning, check the static 3 trailer. Gonna' be sick.
Cantelowes is fun
23 Jun 2007 Hadnt updated the site for a while so heres a shit clip from of some bails from cantelowes and also, me being a twat after 3 litres of tesco red bull.
 Also, dont forget about the fleet comp tomorrow! Should be sick.
Fleet.
12 Jun 2007 On the 24th of June, Fleet is having its annual 'scam jam'. This is the first competition at the park since the day it was opened so it should be good. Free to enter but helmets must be worn. Hopefully the weather will hold out to have a BBQ after the skating aswel.
Competition starts at 1 and should end around 5(ish). Get down to the park (in the views fields) because it should be sick.
Telebox
06 Jun 2007 Chris got a trick featured in casual skateboardings, curb surfers (sky channel 146) issue 6. Was included in a montage edited by Liam Teague from the sidewalk forum.
Visit the curb surfers website to view issue 6. Stoked!
What was that..?
06 Jun 2007 Chris has joined the party! Woo. Yeah i dont really know if this counts as news, because its not really about footage or a spot or anything. Ok, ill fill you in on some "news" of mine....
1) I started a little bit of planning for the 3 day trip to stoke that the hands down crew are planning to do in the summer (ROAD TRIP!!!) 2) Found a new spot or two in the area that seem fairly good and original and will be visited for a skate later this week. 3) Um....ok there isn't a 3, but oh well.
What? So you cant take videos... just one picture? What a load of shit
05 Jun 2007
UPDAAAAAAAAAATE
31 May 2007 Firstly:
Alton comp was canceled due to the cunt that is 'British summertime'. Should be on some time in July though. Secondly: TSHIRTS!? Yes please! Lastly: New footage up. Shit skating, shit filming and edit. But the spot is sick!
Shit! The 27th is next weekend isnt it!?
17 May 2007 As you may/may not have noticed, the footage page was down a couple of days ago due to vimeo being an utter nob.
The footage is now hosted on blip.tv BUT for some strange reason, if you are using internet explorer, you will have to download the .mov file by right clicking the picture and selection save source as. Or, get firefox. Also, the annual Alton competition is still being held this year on the 27th, even though fishbrain skate shop has closed down so make sure you are there! The competition is being sponsored by bored of southsea so check out their website! Click here to see more details of the competition.
9.
05 May 2007 Well i had absolutely nothing to do today so i have built version 9.
Allot simpler than 8... but enjoy.

Also, Matt has put a load of new photos up from various places on the cherryrig site.

Featuring: Chris Newman Phil Robinson Dan Shennan Alan Robinson Matt Thomas The teaser is on the footage page so have a ganders.
Harsh!
29 Mar 2007 Well shennan broke his ankle/leg last weekend but i kept forgetting to update about it. He should be back skating in 4-5 weeks though.
Get well soon!
Bescor money.
25 Mar 2007
Spring init
25 Mar 2007 Well we have decided the footage from now till the start of summer is going to be saved for a small 'spring edit'. This will be pretty short and nothing huge. After that, most of the filming will be going into 'Get raw' which will be filmed over summer. This will be a full length video with multiple sections.
Something to look forward to i guess...
Shit update number 2
23 Mar 2007 Re-compressed the "first week of spring" edit so it actually works now.
Also, new sidewalk site up, although the forums are still down.. grrr www.sidewalkmag.com
What a shit update
22 Mar 2007 I had a bit of spare time tonight so i have re-done the footage page, and while i was at it, re-compressed the offcuts montage because the compression was shit on it.
