Tweakerzine Skateboard mag

Continuing with the Hardcloud skateboarding theme this morning, I have been looking over and reviewing tweaker magazine. There are a lot of ezines appearing out there at the moment for almost all the extreme sports. I have seen them for surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing, FMX and they all offer slightly different styles of reader and approach to articles and interviews etc.

Tweaker zine is a UK skateboarding magazine that focuses on UK riders and companies and general news from around our shores. Check out the brand below.

The magazine is well laid out and what tweakerzine does that is slightly different from other ezines is it treats each article as a separate story in its own right. You can scroll between articles/features and then look through the pages of just this feature before moving onto the next subject matter.
The biggest advantage of this is you get quick load times and I have never been waiting for new content to load if I am quick flicking the pages. This is a common problem with some of the older style readers.

Excellent articles and excellent content on the UK skateboarding scene.. Well worth checking out.
Hardcloud.com carries huge stocks of the latest skateboarding fashion from brands like Etnies, Volcom clothing, DC Shoes and more.

Geoff Rowley Back in the UK

One of the UK’s most well know and well respect professional skate boarders returned to his old stomping grounds to see some hardcore Rowley fans.

Rowley returned to the UK and visited Portsmouth’s Southsea Skatepark in September 2009. The Vans footwear and Volcom clothing rider moves to the states many years ago to master his art and also give him a larger opportunity to turn professional and earn an income from the sport he loves.

Rowley has even featured in Tony Hawks – Skateboarding game releases for playstation and xbox 360.

All New Nike 6.0 Colours

Check out this wicked video from the Nike 6.0 surf house.

Nike and the Nike Swoosh have entered the surf and skate market in the last few years with some classic Nike touches. Added some bold colourways and panel layouts which make the shoes very comfy but also really standout. The Air Zoom Oncore and Air Mogan are our favourites here. The rasta style with a twist in the Air Mogan rasta are definately my favourites.

We are really liking the greens, yellows, turquoises, reds and yellows that appear to make up the range.

The Nike 6.0 team is not just inspired by surf, but dirt, skateboarding and snow influences.
We know that you are going to like these so please don’t hang around. Hit the ramp or that new jump this september in some Nike 6.0 from Hardcloud.com trawlling the world of surf, skate and music fashion so you dont have too.
