A couple of weeks back some of the Emerica footwear team dropped in on Newcastle as part of their UK Tour. There were more skaters flying around town that day than i’d ever seen in my life! Every corner you turned there was someone speeding by on their way to Native Skate Store for the signing and then off to Five Bridges for the demo. Of course the po-po didn’t like the idea of hundreds of skaters being let loose onto the streets and tried to stop the demo happening because of “health and safety” but luckily the woman in charge of this party pooping was off the day of the demo so shit all got done to shut it down. Worked out alright in the end too, no one got hurt, Five Bridges was at capacity and I went along to get some snaps from the evening. Enjoi.
