Skate and Create

I recently came across this great video series by DIY America, it’s all about skateboarding and creativity, I thought I’d embed 6 of them here for easy viewing. There’s supposedly 12 in the series but I could only find the first 6. They are all in HD so click full screen for better viewing.

First batch of Dundee Concrete decks have arrived!

We’ve now got the first batch of Dundee Concrete decks, most of this batch have been purchased already but there are a few 8” decks still available. We should be ordering a second batch this week so if you’re after an 8.5” then we can sort you out!

DCC Deck update

Hi guys, there’s unfortunately been a problem getting the funding we were going to use to get this first batch of decks done, however they have actually been ordered. 

A Third Foot have already prepped the art / setup for the artwork printing, the problem is that we need to pay at least 50% in advance before the decks will actually be printed. So, how many people would be willing to pay for their decks in advance? Including myself it needs 9 people to pay in advance to have enough for the 50%, however we also need to pay the full amount before we’ll get them delivered so in total it would need 17 of us to pay up front to get the order done.

Please let me know if you’re up for doing this, either comment here or leave a post on the Dundee Concrete Facebook page to let me know. I was hoping we wouldn’t need to do it this way but there’s no other way now, A Third Foot have been really patient about it all but are really keen to get this all sorted out, otherwise I’m going to have to pay out about £100 to cover the setup costs incurred so far.

Fundee Jam - 27th August @ Dudhope

Poll for Dundee Concrete skateboard deck sizes

We’ve set a poll up on our Facebook page to capture people’s preferred size of deck that they’d like so that we can better tailor our order for what people are after.

We need to know asap so Go take the poll here if you want one of the decks!

£35 for the deck.
