The Week Today, Now - 03/08/2026

Bringing you the latest and greatest skateboard news from the last week, including Nike SB's Euro tour, Short Straw's debut full-length and Leo Bodelazzi's Chunk Remix.

We've been big fans of Short Straw ever since they launched and now we've got incontrovertible proof of their radness courtesy of their debut full-length, 'Open Relationship'. Featuring Jake Mitchell, Connie Gascoyne, Albie Edmonds, Izzy Almond and Paul Watson alongside a load more homies, Josh Hallett has done an incredible job of capturing this extremely wholesome as they work their magic up and down the UK, including some hammers right here in Cardiff!

Join a ridiculously stacked crew of Nike SB's finest as they embark on their 'AF-1 Creased Euro Tour', upon which the vibes are almost as high as the level of skating as the likes of Eetu Toropainen, Dylan Jaeb, Ville WesterKarsten Kleppan, Vince Palmer and countless others hit a slew of skatepark demos and street spots across the mainland. Bobby Worrest going full Boris Johnson on a zipline is of course also a highlight.

More Eetu bangers on display in 'Lines That Never End' as he links up with a load of the local homies to celebrate Nike SB teaming up with Finnish skate shop, Beyond. I would also like to formally apologise to the people of Finland as I recently discovered the country isn't actually part of Scandinavia and I'm pretty sure I've been mislabelling you for years...

Extreme levels of cleanliness on display in Leo Bodelazzi's new 'Chunk Remix' edit, which brings together clips from his various video appearances over the last few years as he puts those premium Brazilian genetics and some serious skate IQ to work for your enjoyment.

Recent Thrasher cover recipient, Jace Detomasso, brings his usual high-impact hammers in Ichpig's latest edit, 'A*US', alongside some more technically-minded stunts from John Dilorenzo, Masaki Hongo, Kevin White and even former Skateline NBD pundit, Gary Rogers.

Powerful ATV energy on display from Kieran Woolley in his new part for Opera as he crushes everything in his path, including bonkers skatepark transfers, rooftops, rails, ditches and pretty much any other skateable structure which was unfortunate enough to end up in his sights.

More quality B-sides from Sci-Fi Fantasy's incredible 'Endless Beauty' full-length, this time it's Max Garson doing his thing as he brings equal parts talent and joy to remind you that this skateboarding malarkey really isn't that deep.

Enjoy over 25 minutes of the usual eccentricity from the Last Resort AB gang as Chris Milic, Frankie Decker, Salomon Cardenas, Jesse Alba and more of your faves embark on a trip to Richmond, Virginia, hitting all manner of spots and DIYs along the way.

Join the Vinyl Skateboards crew in Miami as Art Cordova, Blake Carpenter, Thomas Dritsas, Frankie Spears, Mariah Duran and Daniel Terran give the local ledge spots a thorough pasting.

That's enough chit-chat though. Head to the shop to buy the latest clothing and skateboard decks from CSC. Or, check out more of the latest news, videos, and product reviews on the CSC Blog. Safe.
