Skate For Kids
Jim Petersson is about to begin another adventure! Jim (Mr. Jim!) is someone we have featured here on skatefurther before. In 2010 he skated the 3000km trip from Chiang-Mai in the north of Thailand all the way down to Singapore. On 10th of May, Jim and two friends are going to skate around Sweden secondContinue reading “Skate For Kids”
Sander’s Adventures
Recently we got tagged in an instagram post of a skater pushing down the most epic looking road ever. That skater was Erik Sander. We managed to grab him for a quick interview before he heads out on an adventure. SF: Hi Erik, thanks for giving us the time for this interview. Tell us aboutContinue reading “Sander’s Adventures”
World On Board
For those of you who do not know Adrian, here’s a little info. Adrian ‘World On Board‘ has been skating countries across the globe for many years, entering ultraskates across the globe (he came to NZ for the 2016 ultra and ended up on Nat’s couch!) and most recently has covered almost 11,000km in 275Continue reading “World On Board”
Info – Beyond the sidewalk – Back to our roots
It’s been 15 minutes since I first watched this and I’m still grinning from ear to ear. Beyond the Sidewalk is a must see documentary about the first ever crossing of the USA by Jack Smith, Jeff French and Mike Filben. We had seen the promo video and heard all about the viewings, but nowContinue reading “Info – Beyond the sidewalk – Back to our roots”
Journey – The Southern Push
Alex is pushing the southern coast of the UK this summer. Traveling to Lands End (the starting point of many great journeys) and then pushing all the way, some 420m, back home. Many of us will relate to his thirst for adventure – stuck in front of a computer screen, surrounded by the same sceneryContinue reading “Journey – The Southern Push”
Journey – 5000km from San Francisco to New York
Popping up on our radar out of the middle of no where, Danielius is pushing off on what will undoubtedly be one of the biggest pushes this year – 5000km from San Francisco to New York. What makes this push even more interesting is his experience and attitude towards a challenge of a lifetime. OverContinue reading “Journey – 5000km from San Francisco to New York”
Journey – Push for Trees
Journey – Paris to Madrid – Connor Strudwick I’ve only just found out about Connor’s trip. He’s a local lad to me and it’s probably a good idea he set off on his trip through France and into Spain before we got introduced and I fed him a load of really bad advice. This isContinue reading “Journey – Push for Trees”
Journey – Just A Couple Of Spins
We stumbled across this trip the other day and got in contact with Flo. He has just completed 58 days of skating, starting in Germany and finishing in Istanbul. I didn’t know if I would like longboarding for two months straight and if I could even do it. I just started. I didn’t let allContinue reading “Journey – Just A Couple Of Spins”
Journey – Bretttreks Portugal
Arne has just completed a journey across Portugal and the video for his trip just dropped! We are super stoked by trips like this – getting out there and skating further. Hopefully Arne will be doing a bit of a write-up about his experiences for SkateFurther in the not too distant future. Here’s the videoContinue reading “Journey – Bretttreks Portugal”
