Bringing you the latest and greatest skateboard news from the last week, including Globe's Euro adventures, Peace Park's 30th birthday and a bangin' Belgian beer collab.

Join the new-and-improved Globe Skateboarding squad on their travels around Europe as Austyn Gillette, Christian Maalouf, Sammy Montano and Val Bauer as they work their magic in Berlin and Brussels with Austyn once again proving that he only gets better with age. The Cranberries song choice is an instant winner!

Typical hellride vibes from the Spitfire crew in their new Colorado-based edit, 'Friendly Fire', as they make their way around a load of parks and spots around the state with a strong, female-forward squad featuring the likes of Elissa Steamer, Nicole Hause, Hayley Wilson, Fabiana Delfino and more.

Montreal's iconic Peace Park plaza has just turned thirty so of course the locals got together to host a celebratory jam, hitting up the spot's hallowed ledges and stairs and even channeling those OG Love Park vibes with a drain-to-can set-up while local legend, Alexis Lacroix, provided the tunes.

Sour Solution have temporarily paused their usual piss-taking to come through with a wholesome memorial video for their homie, Alex 'Plankton' Andersson, who tragically lost his life to cancer earlier this year, alongside a new deck and T-shirt to raise funds for a memorial object in his hometown.

French low-impact connoisseur, William Monerris, takes his impeccable two-wheeled technique to a variety of spots across the globe in his new 'DarkIII' part, coming through with a string selection of mind-boggling manuals and perfectly-balanced nosegrinds.

Antwerp's Lockwood skate shop have teamed up with Belgian beer brand, Duvel, for an absolute dream collab, heading to Porto to take advantage of the city's pristine spots while making the most of their ample supply of beer. Brains, you know where to find us.

Start your week off right with a hefty dose of tech from Justin Sommer as he lays down classically-trained hammers from Stuttgart to Shanghai while also making sure to show off his impeccable flatground tekkers.

Relive the carnage from this year's Dean Lane Hardcore event as Kalid Ben-Gharbia showcases three-and-a-half minutes of ramp-based savagery as a load of Bristol's finest lay waste to the iconic big quarter.

Witness Kayna Abel's short-but-sweet part from Tupode's new 'Insisista' full-length as she brings that signature Brazilian with her seriously buttery style.

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.
