On Friday the 12th we will be hosting the UK DC team at the ramp…..Leo Smith, Sean Smith, Dave Snaddon, Dylan Hughes and Keith Walsh will be attendance. Will start at 5pm and go on until we are finished…..Ripping!

Congratulations to Kris on his Kingpin interview. Always stoked to see him all up in the media and looking forward to the Vans video even more now. Working on getting a premiere for it here in Brum. Keep ’em peeled.

And of course, we got Kingpin in stock…….!

Just had a call from a representative for the PWBC.
I was informed that Palace Skateboards are going to be lurking at Ideal on the afternoon of Monday the 1st of February for a few hours getting cell phone footage of their UK tour.
This means that we are going to have Ollie Todd and Lucien Clarke in and around the store/ramp plus Tim&Barry from DontWatchThat.tv playing rowdy music that’ll make you scowl…..Grimey….!
Will Rudeboy Mandemi make the trip north?…

Just had a visitation from Liverpool/Lost Art’s finest ambassadors Cold Ones.
In town for a quick session on the ramp and then down to the venue to set up for tonights gig.
If you like the look of this clip then maybe get down to the Academy in Dale End. Doors at 7.00pm, Kicks off at 8.00pm…..

We got ourselves some copies of the Cliche Resume book in the store, and after a quick look through, i have to say it looks a mighty impressive document that is testimony to the mark that Cliche has made on European skateboarding.
A worthy addition to your coffee table….

Yet more product arrived today with the full range of Anti Hero Butt Alert pro models back in stock and we also got a few copies of the February Thrasher which comes with a free copy of P Stones Prevent This Tragedy DVD.

There may be snow,ice and cold outside but we are busy keeping skateboarding all warm at Ideal. The ramp is open as a shelter from the elements and we are getting a load of new stock in on a daily basis. Today it is the turn of Blueprint, Kill City and Toy Machine.

Oh, and as a bonus, we are getting the latest copy of Thrasher that comes with the free Prevent This Tragedy DVD tomorrow. Still only £3.50.
Can you say Bible?

We just got a few new items from Vans this afternoon. A red hot Chukka Low, a real nice low tech style 106 and a slick Super Tuff Half Cab Pro. Very nice. We also got a top up drop of media from This, That and the Others to the Flip DVD.
Winter warmers each and every one.

Brrrrrrrrr!

We got it……

Can you believe that Ideal Ramp Local Dave Pegg is turning 21? To mark this major occasion there is to be a little celebration skate on Wednesday at the ramp….See you there?

Just going to take this opportunity to wish you all an excellent Xmas holiday. Make sure you make the most of the festive season. Enjoy the good cheer and good times!
We will be open again on Sunday for a few hours if you need to burn off that excess on the ramp….and then back to normal hours on Monday.

Once again, a big thanks to all of you that have been supporting us over the last year, 2010 is going to be a great one….

Cheers!

Pay attention at the back…….
We are going to be closing at 2pm on Xmas eve and re-opening on Sunday the 27th at 1pm……

MERRY XMAS!!!!!
