save harrow skatepark
save harrow skatepark

I recently got hold of a binder full of RAD magazines that Len's Mum found on Kettering tip, it got me thinking and a plan was formed to get together all the copies of RAD, Skateboard! and SK8 Action i could find....i already had a good few of them before the Kettering files came to light, the one i really wanted though eluded me....i had it once but i gave it to Skateboard Phil in Leicester a couple of years ago....it was the issue of Skateboard! which he himself had two pages, a layback on Harborough wall as it used to be and a frontside rock on the block that Giles built....not only this but a big section of Wicksteed Park report/bank convention review....Phil had my copy and i needed another to replace it, ebay might have the answer i thought...i couldn't remember the issue i needed but it must be out there somewhere and guess what, i found it first go......click on the images for a life sized facsimilie of the pages.......found in a collection of 20 80's skate mags i collected from my ebay seller in Brighton yesterday.....nice!!!
Talking about old skateparks, Harrow seems like it's in a bit of trouble at the moment...sign the petition to try and save one of Britains few remaining original 70's concrete parks.........
