''THERE IS XEROX ON THE INSIDE OF YOUR EYELIDS''

Curated by; Rich Jacobs

An art exhibition celerbrating and exploring the realm of 1980's skatezine,s and xerox art manipulations from a small window of time(about twenty years ago) when things got made by hand ,were documented and put into personal little magazines that were self published and traded by mail.

WHEN: A couple more months i think.

If you have any interest in either board culture or early mass art mediums then this exhibition is at the least, better than a piping hot cuppa on a cold winters day.

Part 3 The final chapter

The van half way up

The Van powered its way through Germany and Austria and climbed high into the Alps, up the 122 hairpin bends to end up at our destination; Kaunertal 3200m ski resort for a well deserved pint.

We were up bright and early(ish) the next day to start our 2 days of testing the Winter 2008/9 snowboards. The conditions were ideal, a bit bullet proof first thing but the sun was out and so took no time to soften up.
From Burton we tested the Custom X, Custom, X8, Jussi, Dominant and Deuce boards along with the Mission, Cartel and the Triad Binding and from Forum we tested the Destroyer and the Youngblood boards. The Custom X, Custom, Jussi and X8 boards all have the ICS System and the Cartel and Triad bindings having the EST System which make those binding and stance adjustments super easy with infinite possibilities.

The choice boards were the Custom X which powered through the afternoon chop, super solid on landings and lively on paste , and the X8 which is an amazing freestyle beast, loads of pop and flex for jibbing about or blasting through the park.
Close second were the Custom which is a perfect all-rounder, on piste or park and the Dominant which was a super soft jib fest?


Tuesday night was the Analog and Gravis party and with a Japanese theme and free sake and tequila it was predictably messy.
Another day of testing on Wednesday then in the van fresh from the slopes, pointed her in the direction of Dunkerque and started the long drive back to London.
