I hit up Dan Murphy to be on the podcast after seeing a video on Instagram with three sick tricks he filmed in just one day. They ended up all being in his Welcome To Foundation video as well as his part in YouGottaGetThat.
Here is Dan's Instagram post with the three tricks he filmed on that day.

Another good one with Harry Lintell, Lobster Tales comes from Converse UK and features Matlok Bennett-Jones, Ollie Lock, Dom Henry, Mike Arnold and, Jerome Campbell skating a few cold seaside towns in the north of the UK.
The Skateboarder's Journal finally has a proper website with lots of rad stuff. This video from Chongqing, China is just one example. It features Jake Hayes, Paul Battlay, Harry Clark, Adam Davies, Nathan Jackson, Colin Evans, Corey Leso, and Gaberial Summers hitting up rad new spots in the Chinese city.
I linked up with Karl Watson for this episode. We talked for over an hour and we will have a longer story coming out later. For now here are two stories. One about his most iconic trick at Hubba Hideout and the other, an early experience with Danny Way at EMB.

There's nothing quite like Russian spot porn. Besides the tiresome mini ramp bit in the middle, this Vans Russia trip to the Urals is chock full of incredible spots too sketchy for American pros to venture to with their RED cameras. Via: Skateboarding.ru.
