The end is nigh. Mass consumerism and an ever-increasing obsession with eating a shitload of anything, anywhere at anytime has finally taken its toll. Not on our souls, or bodies for that matter – but on our culture.
The heart of skateboarding (in the UK, anyway) is massively under threat. Southbank, London’s most notable skate spot, has been slowly diminishing in size for years, giving way to a growing band of restaurants and shops. Its skateable features have been at the heart of the skateboard community for over three decades. But history, it seems, is simply no match for man’s insatiable need to consume.
