Welcome to my monthly musings. I'm a local London guy with a passion for Snowboarding and Skateboarding. With an international perspective, an eye for trends and a healthy obsession with fashion I try my hardest to keep you guys all up todate with the Snow and Skate Scene. Also I'll be sharing some things from my day to day routine. Feel free to comment on my posts - all feedback welcome! online@urban-chaos.co.uk
Today I have sadly closed our Covent Garden Store.
This is due to the SuperDry takeover on the entire Thomas Neals Centre. I have tried very hard over the last 6 months to find another location but todate I've had no luck. So for now Urban Chaos is just in Bromley, Kent as Snow and Skate City. As you can see the web site is still up and running so if you are unable to get to Bromley you can still buy online. Give us a call on 020 8460 4456 if you need help finding things.
www.UrbanChaos.TV is your one stop site for the best pickings of the best video from websites such as elementskateboards.com, skateboard.tv, snowboardtv.com, DCShoes.com, Burton.com, Adio.com and more. Each week we will surf the net in search for the latest and best videos so you dont have to! This is a FREE service and our main aim is to have one easy Video Vault holding some of the best video footage from the best brands and websites in the extreme sports industry!
You can even upload your vidoes to share with the world and send the links to your friends via email, Facebook, Myspace, Twitter etc.
Remember to keep coming back weekly to check out the latest videos. Happy viewing!
Today I have been told that Social Media/Networking is the only thing we need to know this year! If you've not got your finger in every social crack, err sorry site, then you're not going anywhere this year! So I have blown the cobwebs off our Twitter page and given it a face lift! Not sure how long I'll keep it up, its kinda like this Blog, a real good idea at first but then you realize that there aren't enough things to keep writing about and slowly time slides by. Days turn in to weeks and weeks in to months then before you know it the last thing you wrote about was back in early January! twitter.com/urbanchaosUK
Well this year will be an exciting one! With many plans up my sleve for the survival of 'Urban Chaos', 'Snow and Skate City' & 'Hype' to keep us growing from strength to strength whilst other companies fall around us. We will see the other side of this recession through my evolving plan! As my father one said to me...
"In the early 1800's you would have made a fortune as a black smith, fitting horse shoes. However in 1895 when steam propulsion began you would have been in a dieing busines! And if you was that last guy sticking by your guns and only selling horse shoes you would be extinct very quickly!"
Wise words! So to get ahead of 'Extinction' we are launching our own clothing line. Watch this space!
OMG we're giving away a Pauls Boutique Hoodie to one lucky winner! Every month we will be giving away some thing else so make sure you keep checking our site to see what it is!
Komono watches are brand new into the UK, we're right on pulse with them. Right now there are 2 models to choose from. The Parrot and The Einstein. The Parrot Watch, it's a great retro looking watch with the ability to speak the time! And the Einstein is a real retro Calculator watch with the following: Calculator Function, Displays The Time, Phonebook, Schedule Function, World Time Mode, Alarm Function, Timer Function & Stopwatch Function!
In case you missed it on the home page we have a massive Element Deck Sale on right now! Plus you get Free Grip Tape, saving you £5 more! I ordered 300 Decks and they are selling fast! Make sure you don't miss out. Click here to see all the Element Sale decks.
I'm still amazed with the freebord. I can remember many quiet shop days were we would spend hours and hours trying to modify our Snowboards so we could slide our home streets however all we managed to do was damage our boards and inflict pain to ourselves! But the guys at Freebord have done exactly what I wanted! Check the video!
Snowboard all year. Ride any hill, any time, no lift tickets, no lift lines, no off season.
Total Speed Control: Freebord’s outside wheels act just like the edges on your snowboard. The result: total speed control that allows you to bomb the steepest street you want.
Slide into Switch: Freebord’s center wheels act like the petex base on your snowboard allowing you to slide your edge and drift into switch.
Stop: Edge in and slide to a stop, same as you do on snow.
Carve and Slide: Freebord’s patented truck design is the only board on the market that combines both carving and sliding (think about it: without both, it’s not snowboarding).
So today I've decided to create a Blog Page. Everyone else seems to have one so thought I should get involved with the web trends! I'll try my hardest to add to it daily but I know it will be hard. So watch this space for my thoughts, ideas and hopefully useful information that will keep you coming back for more! :)
