The Soulful Skate Co. board fleet has casually doubled in size over the last five months, which is great news for lessons and terrible news for my storage situation.

Ross built me the first skateboard holder as a present because apparently he knows the way to my heart is through storage solutions 😅

So last week I built a second one in the workshop.

Turns out spending the last year and a half learning power tools through the van build has made me dangerously confident around bits of wood and a drill.

And because I’m a longboard snob after years of being lovingly corrupted by Vandem, I’m very picky about boards.

I would never put a beginner, improver or private lesson customer on a board I wouldn’t happily ride myself.

So yes, this is technically a post about a skateboard rack.

But it’s also a small love letter to good equipment, learning new skills, and the fact my board storage is finally looking extremely satisfying.

Last slide: caught napping on the job because apparently building your own business also means taking breaks wherever you accidentally find them 🫠

Tiring work, this skateboard thing.

Club Night at St George was full of people trying bowls for the first time, everyone cheering each other on, and @charlierowen giving us the very technical phrase “raccoon hands” mid manoeuvre 🤣

Big love to @catchaps and @effjeff , who both came through recent courses and are now whizzing round bowls!

NEXT CLUB NIGHT
📍 Hillfields Pump Track
📅 Thursday 4th June | 7.30pm
🎟️ £5

Not a formal lesson, no showing off, just a relaxed monthly skate with an excellent hype squad.

All boards welcome. Best for people who can already push and want to practise, play and meet other skaters.

Equipment can be added when booking.

Please book ahead via the Club Night page on the website so I can plan numbers and kit.

Bristol Slide Day 2026 💙

Third year running and still one of my favourite days of the year.

First Coleman slides, kids getting stuck in, returners progressing, and a hill full of people cheering each other on.

Sliding can feel intimidating from the outside, but this is what it’s really all about: supportive coaching, lovely people, and playing, which adults forget to do enough.

A couple of reviews that made my day:

“Progressed way more than I expected.”

“Worth every penny and enjoyed every second.”

Huge thank you to Rebecca, Josh, Ben, Jack and Shanna for being the best team, and to everyone who came, skated, filmed, hyped and made the day what it was.

Next slide lessons:
Sunday 14th June
📍 Ashton Court Estate
