We are pleased to announce that we will be once again stocking Palace Skateboards over at our online store at The Black Sheep, new boards will be available to buy as of today. Palace has been tearing apart the skateboard industry for some years now and have a powerful team to prove that. Danny Brady and Benny Fairfax are the newest additions to the team over the past year and their new pro boards are available to buy now. If your not familiar with the company you must check out some of their edits! Combining skateboarding, humour and Turkish dancing they are certainly worth a watch! Click the play button below to see the boys shredding it in Paris.
Palace has stayed the same since the company started giving it a consistent space in the skate world. It started with an idea, and have kept the idea going throughout making very little changes apart from to the team which has made it a very recognisable brand that has probably been the cause for their success. The team is probably the best in the UK at the minute with the likes of Chewy Cannon who has the ultimate steez through to Karim who is a straight up badman! Keep your eyes peeled over on the Black Sheep website for the latest Palace boards at great prices with free grip included… enough said!
Happy Hour Shades was started by Baker and Emerica pro skaters Bryan Herman and Braydon Szafranski. It has now evolved into one of the biggest Sunglasses company in the skateboard industry and has a powerful team consisting of the professionals: Bryan Herman, Braydon Szafranski, Kevin Romar, Figgy, Dustin Dollin, Jamie Tancowny, Nuge, Chima Ferguson, Jon Dickson, Jake Duncombe, Beagle, Frank Gerwr and Collin Provost, Trevor Colden, Riley Hawk. The amateurs consist of the Chief Dog and many more…
Braydon and Bryan are both pro for Baker Skateboarders and have been a huge influence on the skate scene for several years and hopefully many more. If you are not that familiar with their skills you should definitely make some time to watch Baker 3. Baker 3 was a video made by the Baker Skateboards and was one of the biggest videos to drop in 2005 and is still a very decent watch! For now here’s a clip of the Happy Hour boys shredding it hard at the skatepark.
They have produced a massive range of sunglasses consisting of pro models to double downs which come in a variety of colours such as black/gold to electric blues. Not only have they made sunglasses but they have also made some fresh clothing and accessories like air fresheners and beer coolers….. perfect for the summer!
We at the The Black Sheep Store are very proud to stock this brand, especially since we are a skateboarder owned shop and Happy Hour is a skater owned company. It is definitely worth paying a visit to our city centre store at 59 Church Street, Manchester, M41PD or heading over to our website to check them out! Prices range from £17.50 up to £22.50 which isn’t much to pay for looking as cool as can be in the summer sun.
All This Mayhem is Eddie Martin’s balls-out documentary about Tas and Ben Pappas—Australia’s most infamous professional skaters.
http://youtu.be/EjJLpX3hlpA
In the late 1980s, two brothers astonished spectators with their acrobatic feats on the vert ramp. When they headed to America, Tas and Ben Pappas soon found themselves in epic combat with rival Tony Hawk, and topping the competition league in vert skating – a sport which was rapidly changing under the steerage of ESPN. On the surface this documentary is solely about skateboarding. Take a deeper look and see the real story of two brothers coming from nowhere, reaching the top of their game and eventually their downfall.
Not surprisingly their lifestyle had its complexities, and the Pappas brothers’ time at the top was short lived. By the 2000’s drugs and jail time had eclipsed their skating, often finding themselves frozen out of the scene as Aussie outsiders by the world of corporate sponsored skateboarding and much of the film explores two decades of consequences and the difficult return to normal life.
The Pappas bros… vert skating legends, ripping up the ramp and partying hard – catch ‘All This Mayhem’ at Sheffield Doc Fest 8th & 10th June.
The last instalment of ‘Too Right’ is now available to watch online – bought to you by The Invisible Man of Light Forest.
Who is the mysterious balaclava’d tranny ripper? What does he want and where does he skate? The only thing we do know about him is he kills it.

Big thanks to everyone involved in the production of the epic video…. what’s next?!
Some of you may know Eddie is permanently on the mission, not necessarily to get footage for his many projects but purely because the guy skates more than you have hot dinners. The above Eddie Belvedere Too Right part was filmed mostly throughout 2013 whilst spending his time lurking/rinsing the back streets of Manchester but following on from his recent Sidewalk ‘Word’ interview he’s also lined up to release his Cornwall rural spot destruction edit.
From Pies to Pasties, Eddie rules!
Our next section from the ‘Too Right’ video is the little ripper Jake Potts. A Manchester local from Crumpsall, this guy has it all from a sick style to an endless bag of technical tricks. You don’t find many 16 years old with as much skill as this kid on a skateboard! Watch his section above to understand what I’m saying. He is also a very polite young chap and would like to thank Phil Harvey, Rybo and Dan Carpenter for filming his part and Rob Smith for editing it and making it happen! Keep your eyes peeled for a Manchester skate scene video called ‘Hype Ting’ which will be dropping at the end of this year/early next year where you can catch more action from The Black Sheeps youth Jake Potts!
