Matt is one of Southsea and Portsmouth’s legendary skateboarders since all the way back to the 80s. This footage was filmed all in one evening about a year ago, still one of the best skaters to ever step on a board on this fair isle.

I know we have big upped Gonella’s other blogs many a time before. But I personally am stoked on the latest entry to his historical www.skateboardingis.com. I was and still am a big fan of the Abrook Brothers.  I nicked the 1990 dodo advert from Paul’s site, shows how rad they were, and at a park I localised for many years Southsea – Gorm.

If you live near Southsea Bored and Strong Island are hosting a skate trivia pub quiz on Wednesday 4th February at Little Johnny Russells in Albert Road.
