Push The Prom is almost here, with less than ONE WEEK to go… This year we teamed up with the Brighton Longboard Ladies, Brash Skate & Create and Nefarious Crew who will be bringing you a zine making workshop, Hungry Hungry Hippos on Skateboards and a Longboarding X Skateboarding Trick Swap!
We have received all of the prizes from our sponsors who include HUF, Brixton, Out Of Step, Thrasher Mag, Real Skateboards, Two Seasons Skate Store, Story Clothing, Bones Wheels and more!
