Bringing you the latest and greatest skateboard news from the last week, including Rat Ratz 7, a full Chandler Burton part and a sneak peek at Tightbooth's upcoming 'LENZ III'.

With Tightbooth's 'Lenz III' soon to be released, we've been treated to a sneak preview of Ayahiro Uratsuka's part from the video. Ayahiro definitely has a more classically trained approach than some of his counterparts - charging fast as fuck through the streets with lengthy grinds and sizable hucks - although there's still plenty of the typical Tightbooth trickery (and trousers) you expect.

Chandler Burton has just dropped an incredible, fantasy-themed full part to celebrate going pro for There Skateboards and of course it's packed with more dolphin flips than a Seaworld show. They've also got a new interview up on Thrasher for more of an insight into the life of a gay pro skater/drag creature.

Milano Centrale's resident rapscallions are back with their seventh 'Rat Ratz' video (which is especially impressive considering some of them can't be much older than 14) and they still just keep getting better and better. Vince and Nils killed it.

'Kitty B' is an exceedingly stylish and distinctively Parisian new offering courtesy of the lovely lads from Cinquieme Terrasse, featuring Lilian Fev, Marca Barbier, Remy Taveira, Val Bauer and basically everyone else who's ever skated in Paris. Some of those cobblestone slams are absolutely horrific.

Tre Williams brings the hammers in his new pro part for Primitive and, luckily for him, his debut graphic is probably one of the sickest Primitive have ever done. Can't wait for the Dragon Ball Z collab!!

Gage Boyle, Patrick Praman and Tanner Van Vark all come through with bangin' parts in Real's new 'Three Seasons' video alongside cameos from the rest of the team, so it goes without saying that the skating's pretty insane. Big fan of Tanner's trick selection.

Una Farrar leads the charge in the latest Krooked video, backed up by Simon Jensen, Andrew Wilson, Eddie Cernicky and the rest of the gang. Good shit.

'on the bolts' is a short but sweet new clip from Neema Joorabchi and the boys featuring Isaac White, Noah Singleton, Ilias Lopez and Jasper Stieve having a very productive ledge session. 

Join the RVCA crew for their 'Jammin' in Jamaica' tour featuring Mark Suciu, Evan Mock, Curren Caples, Donta Hill and plenty of Eli Reed's dancing.

Rob Pace has celebrated joining the OJ Wheels squad by doing what he does best: crushing massive handrails and chucking himself down monstrous gaps.

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